Very active friendly. 4km of beautiful walking trails along each side of the river (total of 8km). The 41km bike path Ecopista was stunning. Mountains are just a few km away with endless trails for biking and hiking.

A beautiful city with a really interesting central area.
A beautiful city with a really interesting central area. There is a waterpark outside the town and plenty of shopping at reasonable prices in the town. You can take a pedal boat on the river and the local government appear to be investing in the river aspect.
The cathedral is a must see and has recently been renovated. Nearby is the museum/art gallery.
There are some really lovely cafés and restaurants with terraces looking out on the river serving traditional pasteries and food.
I would definitely go back for a couple of nights again.

We chose this town for a one-night stay between a house rental in the Minho area and a flight out of Porto. It was a bit of a random choice based on my criteria of a cute and well-priced hotel under an hour from the airport, but the town also has some cool history so we gave it a go.
Upon arrival, we discovered that it was the first night of the town fair! I have been to several fairs in Spain but this was my first in Portugal. It was the same basic vibe - families delighted to see one another, tasty treats from food stands, brightly like rides blaring pop music over the sound of teens screaming. We grabbed ourselves a couple of petite pours of Super Bock and tried Portuguese-style hot dogs, which are packaged in jars or cans and come with lettuce and crispy fried onions; my Chicago-born partner even approved of how good they were! Amarante puts on a good fair, and it takes place along the river so we were able to explore the main streets of town in conjunction with the party.
The only bummer about the fair is that we couldn't get in to see inside of the church, which is of some importance having been built by a saint. I plan to spend more time in Portugal in the coming years, so maybe I will head back to Amarante for an afternoon to take in the monuments.

The staff were young, attentive, and at all times very engaging. Without doubt, they are a great credit to the reputation of the hostel. The interior design and layout of the hostel has been really well thought out and makes for a really relaxing stay. This hostel is absolutely first rate!

There always seems to be lots going on.
There always seems to be lots going on. The town tries to cater for a wide range of interests and the surrounding countryside offers good walks and bike rides. Restaurants are good and on the whole value for money. There is a Michelin star restaurant which we didn't try although it it was recommended.
Really great hotel: excellent staff, from reception, the restaurant, the cleaning staff - all went out of their way to give great service and it felt like they really meant it.
Room was beautiful, restaurant was very good for both breakfast and dinner.
Location is enchanting. beautiful village, great things to do in the area and very relaxing.
All of the details were there - just an awesome place!
Hotel deserves it's 5 stars and more, hope we have the opportunity to return!
If you are visiting Amarante this is the best spot there is. Beautifully restored and designed interior with a great private cafe/bar overlooking the river. Forget the rail cycleway, just walk from hotel downstream to the aqua park, then uphill a little and back along the old railway line. Stop for lunch at Amarantinho Restaurant up the steep hill from the old Fregim railway station - just have what the locals are having - fantastic simple food and bargain prices.
The property and its grounds are beautiful. The rooms are comfortable and large. We were very impressed by the breakfast offerings and the overall charm of the hotel. We decided to stay an additional night and although our room was booked, they moved us to another room which was almost identical and honored our original price. The service they provide (Margarita, who I believe is the manager, and Sonia at the pool bar) exceeds expectations and we will be back!
The house is elegant and spacious and the patio is very pleasant, as was the host. It was spotlessly clean and well-equipped, with aircon and big, comfortable beds. Amarante is a charming town that is in a good position to explore other parts of the region. As the house is in the suburbs in the hills, the 25 minute walk down into the town is very steep, but there are buses and taxis to get back up if you don't want to drive.
The space is well decorated, great use of space, everything felt very premium. The location was perfect and peaceful. You can walk to everything you need in Amarante. João was very nice and offered great recommendations for restaurants.
WiFi was great as well.
Also, super easy check-in with the most modern say of unlocking the apartment. You will ask yourself why everyone doesn't use it!
We were met at the apartment to get the door entry codes. Accommodations were very tastefully decorated. It was furnished with a combination washer/dryer that was unfamiliar but much appreciated. The building was quiet, we could see the river from our apartment. The location was very close to the river and bridge. Highly recommend this accommodation for your stay in Amarante.
It's a beautiful boutique hotel with large garden and a stunning view on the hills and town. The whole house interior is a manor style antiquities and furniture. The room and the bathroom look royal and are very clean. The hosts are very polite and friendly and offer welcome meal (wine and cheese). Breakfast is very tasty and plentiful and served in marvelous room.
Peso Village made our visit to the Douro Valley a trip to remember and wonderful o every way! The house with its spacious rooms and indoor pool were so very relaxing, we had a romantic dinner by the fire one night.. I’m so glad we did not stay in Pinhao, but chose Peso Village instead. The day exploring Amarante was lovely.. and the drive to Pinhao was beautiful.
I stayed in about 10 places during my three weeks of travel in Portugal. And, this one was my favorite of all of them! This is an impressive building that happens to be adjacent to a five-star hotel and is across the street from the river. It has several rooms with very nice living and dining areas. I love the décor and the breakfast was fantastic!
We had a wonderful time, and I recommend anyone who travels to Amarante to stay here! The place is beautiful and decorated in a unique way, But most of all, the owner is so nice and welcoming! It was a pleasure to meet her and she gave us an amazing local experience! ❤️ definitely exceeded our expectations!!
We loved the large, quiet, private rooms, all with a view. We looked out to a vineyard. The design of the hotel is very well done and in keeping with the environment. We also enjoyed the central bar and restaurant area a 5 minute walk from the rooms. And we especially enjoyed the wine tasting with Renata.
Exceptional staff. Very quiet location. Beautiful property.
Pool area looked very inviting, but it was a bit chilly to use. Thoughtfully restored family farm with tasteful attention to detail. It's a little away from Amarante proper but an easy drive into town through the beautiful countryside.?
Great place, wonderful people. We were the only guests on that time. Whole house and garden were for us. Breakfast
was fantastic. We recommend this place, which is close to Amarante, where there are a lot of interesting places to visit.
The location - in the middle of the vineyard - is great and the views from the hotel are breathtaking.
We had a room with a private swimming pool and it was perfect.
Lovely hotel, with nice gardens running down to the river. Perfect place to relax and enjoy Amarante (outside of fiesta time). Staff friendly and very helpful.
Everything perfect. Central positision, very clean, friendly and helpful staff.
Great breakfast in the Pasteleria just in front the hotel.
Great place. Great!
