This is quality accommodation at a very reasonable price in a wonderful location. We had a comfortable and spacious bedroom with some nice outside space. The cleanliness was impeccable and everything looks good and well maintained. The pool, although a bit chilly, provided welcome relief to one of us after some scorching weather. The food was excellent; copious breakfasts and a splendid dinner. Paula was very helpful in her suggestions for local excursions. A word of warning. If you are planning to have dinner here (highly recommended) be sure to let them know earlier in the day. If you do, you will be able to select your choice of main dish. If you don't, you may be disappointed. This is quite understandable outside high season.

“Wow! Don't stay in Miranda, drive to here instead.”

What. A. Find. When we booked here, it was because we couldn't get a room in one of the more celebrated hotels in Miranda Do Douro. Phew, a close shave. This place is an absolute gem. It's pretty functional, insofar as it's not luxurious, but then you would not expect luxury for the price you pay… lisää

What. A. Find. When we booked here, it was because we couldn't get a room in one of the more celebrated hotels in Miranda Do Douro. Phew, a close shave. This place is an absolute gem. It's pretty functional, insofar as it's not luxurious, but then you would not expect luxury for the price you pay. What you do get are clean, comfortable rooms; friendly owners; and the most wonderful, enormous, tasty, authentic meals. Breakfast is great. But dinner...we were asked in the morning to choose fish or meat. First night we chose meat. It's cooked over a fire. The most enormous tasty steak on the bone. We'd already had hefty tasty starters and then a large salad before the steak, rice, potatoes and veg arrived. Superb home cooked desserts followed. All for just €12.50 per person - extraordinary. Huge glasses of red wine for just a few euros a go. The next night we had fish. Huge pieces of cod this time, equally tasty as the night before. We are birders and the area was fantastic for birding in late September. The hamlet is surrounded by smallholdings which were dripping in local and migrant birds. We got chatting to shepherds and farmers, all of whom spoke French (we don't speak Portuguese and they didn't speak English). The area as a whole is full of vultures and eagles, taking advantage of the cliffs making up the spectacular Douro gorge. It was such a great stay. We went for a drink at the more celebrated hotel in town, built on the cliffs. The views are simply superb there. The hotel itself though....didn't look worth it. Take your car, drive up the road and come to here instead.

“Very calm, excellent attention”

About the hotel, the room is comfortable (great place to rest), good bathroom and everything was neat. It was just what we need.

About the hotel, the room is comfortable (great place to rest), good bathroom and everything was neat. It was just what we need. EXCELLENT Breakfast! *** My boyfriend and I wanted to visit the Parque Natural de Arribes del Duero, but due to the Holly Week the couldn't find available lodgments near the zone. So, we decided to look for somewhere nearby to stay. (You can take the cruise in a "Port" just at 15 minutes in car from the Hotel). Miranda do Douro was a total surprise. Once you cross the boarder (were you can see a wonderful landscape), you arrive to the town and then go straight for about 8 minutes until you reach Pena Branca, where you'll find the hotel. There's plenty of space for parking and it is a very calm zone. Once we arrived, Cristina received us and she was very nice, she gave us some recommendations of the town's Main Festivities those days (you'll spend around half day to visit Miranda) and restaurants. It is a perfect option if you want to take some days off.
