Fantastic grand old property, in an amazing location on the Duoro River, brought to life by the very friendly staff. A private wine tasting was organised for us and was a very enjoyable experience. Elsa was great. It was raining a lot while we were there, so did not get to use the pool. The food menu could be improved. You can get here by train from Porto. Ermida station is just down the road.

We enjoyed staying in a historic place with a very beautiful view of the Douro River. Please note that the only way to get there is by car and the most convenient option is to take advantage of the dinner offered. It should be noted that there is an opportunity to taste very good local wine on site.

Great value, beautiful property

Our stay at Quinta da Ermida was overall fantastic. There were 5 of us staying in the 3-bedroom apartment, which was its own house with separate entry and private bathroom for each room. The view was gorgeous of the river and the train, and the property was beautiful to venture and take in the amazing views. We had some issues communicating with the staff as their English was quite limited, but they were friendly and earnest to try and resolve them. Continental breakfast is included but we didn’t try the dinner based on the reviews. Highly recommend the property and the A&D winery nearby for the best service and quality Vino Verde wines and self-guided tour of the vineyard.

Cool building. Skip the restaurant.

Nice old building, great location. Rooms were in a very traditional style which l liked. Food was awful, restaurant has photos online show fine dining. We were the only guests so maybe the chef was off but 20 euros for 2 dry chicken drum sticks with chips and a luke warm cabbage soup was fairly unreasonable.

Charming estate in very pretty waterfront setting. Hotels.com website had wrong telephone number and wrong coordinates. The link actually had us directed across the river. We were re-directed by hillside residents opposite the site.

Das Hotel ist schön gelegen, aber abgelegen. Ohne Auto geht da gar nichts. Selbst der Bahnhof nebenan, der Luftlinie vielleicht 100 m entfernt ist, braucht 15 Minuten zu Fuß. Das Frühstück war sehr schön, vor allem weil man toll draußen mit Blick auf den Douro sitzen konnte - der Kaffee war allerdings unterirdisch. Das war der schlechteste Kaffee, den ich in Portugal getrunken habe

Beautiful secluded propert right on the river. We stayed in the apartment on the property that is an old stone house and was so cute! We opted to stay for dinner which was outside on the patio by the river and was delicious and relaxing. And breakfast was lovely as well. My kids enjoyed the pool, tennis courts and pool and fuse ball tables.

We had difficulties in finding it as it was dark and we missed the turning a couple of times. However the location is gorgeous and the breakfast was good. There was no soap or hairdryer so make sure you bring your own. A good overnight stay.

Stayed in the apartment

Hotel is in a magical spot on the Duoro river edge - even has its own river beach. Can’t review rooms but stayed in apartment and it was a lovely area for the children but the kitchen was poorly equipped (no kettle, no oven mit, no colinder etc) and it was dirty. The overall service is very friendly but poor - you can never find anyone and they don’t speak English! The owners are around (shouting at each other often) but are super unfriendly and their dog barks a lot even at night. The pool is excellent near the river but no shallow end for kids and they had an unfilled Jacuzzi which my son fell into one day. The food is like home cooked meals and cost 22 euros per person. The wine is very bitter and thin. The boat ride they offer is nice but the boat is in need of repair. The beds were uncomfortable. The grounds the hotel is on are magical but there is an open aqauduct running through the property with untreated water and open ponds so for families of young kids it is challenging. There is a steep narrow staircase inside the apartment so not for the elderly or young children. The bedroom set up is a king upstairs and then 2 rooms downstairs so not ideal to separate a young family.

Rural charm.

We had a great visit for 3 nights. The hotel is a long up and down hill 1 km walk from the train station so take a 4 Euro taxi. Once there, you will find a fine old quinta and wine estate with pool, great views, and good home-cooked food. Big beds but firm. No entertainment and nothing to visit unless you board the train again for day trips to Regua, Pinhão or Artiegos. Car would be better but we did well without. Staff is very friendly and accommodating. Very relaxing stay.
