What do guests think about this lodging establishment?
The Vintage House in Portugal offers a mixed experience for guests. While the location is excellent, with stunning views of the Douro River and terraced hillsides, there are some issues that need attention. Several reviews mention problems with the air conditioning, old room furnishings, and unreliable wireless internet. However, the staff is mostly good and accommodating, with efficient service and excellent breakfast options. Some guests had positive experiences with activities such as wine tasting at a local vineyard and enjoying the hotel's pool. The hotel's beautiful grounds and tranquil surroundings are also praised. Overall, the Vintage House has potential but needs improvements in areas like room amenities and maintenance to fully meet guest expectations.

- 5Great Stay at the Vintage Houserandall - Jul 22, 2021
The VH is right on the Douro with cooling breezes. The Hotel is beautiful but think everyone knows that. We especially however appreciated the staff's assistance dealing with the ever-changing COVID rules. They had the rapid test there so we could comply and carry on with our holiday. They deserve their top rank for service.
