I totally agree with "Sueinseattle" and other reviewers, Chanceleiros is a gem in a wonderful valley you don`t want to miss! Everything about this friendly, beautiful Casa is absolutely wonderful - the main house, the small houses, the garden (s), surroundings - nothing seems to have been overlooked. Kind and good humored staff, lots of laughs from the kitchen, flourishing... More

After getting very lost driving all over the Douro Valley, frustrated & tired, raining & cranky, we finally arrived about 8:00pm to this wonderful house. Greeted at the door like long lost travelers (which we were), with a glass of wine & entrance into a warm marvelous kitchen, we quickly forgot the driving stress. Dinner was divine....I still dream of... More

The Casa sits on a hillside overlooking hills covered with terraces of vineyards. We were able to enjoy this view from the terrace outside of our spacious room as well as from the dining room. Our room was huge with a sofa and king-sized bed. The bathroom was also large. The furnishings are comfortable and nicely done. We enjoyed dinner... More

An absolutely lovely hotel, in a beautiful setting. Large rooms with leafy flower filled patios,Garden paths full of roses with surprises around every bend, like the sauna made from a huge wine barrel, hot tub and tennis court. Good sized outdoor pool area for relaxing, living rooms to poke around in and to the self serve bars and port wine... More

Just stayed one night on business. This is a sumptuous country house of great style, dripping with historical architecture. The bed was huge, which is a nice change - Portuguese beds are generally too small, and if I ran a hotel there it is the first thing I would put right. We dined in the house, and the chef catered...

Three nights in Chanceleiros was great - the house (rather than a hotel) has a family feel, with a big kitchen an a livingroom as the center of action. The accomodations are very comfortable, clean,and very well maintained, and have a very cozy ambiance. The location and the view...just great overlooking the valley and the river. Breakfast is very good... More

Our 4 night stay at Casa do Visconde de Chanceleiros was just right after 2 city stays in Lisbon & Porto. Nestled above the Douro river in the Mountains it was peaceful, very clean and the sevice & foods was excellant. In our room was a caraf of port - on the house - and toped up each day if... More

I have to agree with other reviews, that of our week long stay in Portugal, this small Inn was our favorite! The hotel has been rebuilt lovingly by the owners from ruins, and has wonderful character as a result. The rooms are large with seating areas and are nicely decorated and have beautiful outdoor seating areas. The grounds have beautiful... More

In our ten days in Portugal and northwest Spain, I was more amazed at the Douro River Valley than any other area. Sixty kilometres of mountains rising from the valleys to the sky, terraced over the centuries with grape vines that give us the nectar of Port. Anyone who goes to northern Portugal and misses this spectacle is worse-off for... More
