Arouca Hotel Guide - Passadiços do Paiva Trailhead hotels in Arouca, Portugal.

"Absolutely stunning, historic property. Exceeds expectation. If you like Four Seasons, this far outshines. Property, accommodations, staff, and location are outstanding. We stayed in beautiful hotels in Portugal--this one is far/away the finest. Location is in the center of the historic, beautiful, charming village, which cannot be missed for meals, strolling, photos, etc. Highly recommend making the trip to the Arouca Geo Park for the Paiva Walkways and the suspension pedestrian...

"Un lugar tranquilo y bien comunicado, con zonas comunes muy nuevas y extra limpias como las no comunes. La anfitriona muy atenta y te facilita la estancia. Aparcamos el coche en la calle que siempre teníamos espacio y era muy seguro, pues es una calle tranquila. Repetiremos."

"We are a family of 5 with 3 kids under 12. We visited in March and it was very quiet/serene. Portovella has a beautiful view of the Douro. Riverside walk is just several steps down a hill. Photos don’t do it justice because it is so breathtaking in person. The comfort suite was the perfect size with 2 bathroom ensuites and a powder room. View from the suite was incredible. Just plan ahead if you’re staying on a Sunday as many restaurants were closed but we found a gem in Cinfaes - Sabores e...

"Séjour excellent, très propre, choix pour le petit déjeuner. Personnel très serviable et très aimable. Hotel d’un certain âge vieillot qui a besoin d’être restauré. (J’ai perdu le bouchon de mon dentifrice qui est tombé dans la bonde dû bidet que j’ai dû jeter, car il n’y avait pas de cache bonde.)"

"We loved this campsite! Staff were welcoming and friendly, bungalow was clean and spacious with lovely views from the balcony. The site was lovely and peaceful in natural surroundings and beautiful scenery. River views from the pool area were just amazing. Pool area nice but we didnt get to use unfortunately. There were goats roaming around freely and one had just given birth to their baby just before we arrived! We took a walk down through the woodland via the path right below the site. The...
