Absolutely stunning views. Even the drive up is gorgeous. The staff is attentive and friendly. Will need to stay longer next time.
Steve, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The property itself is beautiful, we went for a hike along the trail and was lovely. Amenities are great, a small but very useful gym and of course many pools on sites. All of the restaurants on site are great. The Michelins restó is a great experience. I booked a lymphatic massage and facial and that was not a good experience felt very unprofessional and highly overpriced in terms of the experience received.

Quiet, comfortable river front hotel

Beautiful hotel in gorgeous location overlooking the river. It was very quiet and peaceful. The service at the restaurant and bar could be improved. The front desk is very friendly and helpful. I would go again, but would eat dinner outside the hotel. Breakfast was amazing!

Restaurant and spa staff are very friendly and helpful. If you want to disconnect this is the hotel for you however it is tucked away and can be far if you are hoping for activities / visits outside the hotel.

Super awesome stay. Very cool hotel. Very unique and so close to all the things you want to do but amazing calm and quietness. Just what I needed. Elevators and whole property is so well thought through. Twilight zone.

Very good.

Super hotel with lovely views of the river. Good food in the restaurant and grill. Comfortable with a very good spa. Only one small gripe: we had to ask for items to be replenished at breakfast.

Beautiful setting. Food was very good. Wish the hotel directory was in the room rather than by QR code as it didn’t download well and wasn’t user friendly.

Amazing stay. From the minute of arrival, we felt like we arrived in heaven. It was our first visit to the Douro Vally and we couldn't dream of a better experience then Octant. The view, the service, the food, the facilities, the people staying in the hotel,, everything was above any expectations!!! Will definitely come back.

Peace

This stay was amazing! This hotel is very peaceful and the staff are kind and helpful. The only thing I would say is I tkoghht the wine tasting was complimentary but it wasn’t it was 45EUR per person, it may have been my misunderstanding. Apart from this cannot fault this place. The restaurant was really good, definitely a Michelin star.
Priscilla, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Eh, hidden fees, it’s a spa to relax and the staff constantly is looking to sell you something or up charge for something. Nice people, facilities were sub par, modern look is easy to make look simple but needs more character too it and especially ordering or services to shuttle without charging you inconsistent rates that always changed per staff mmember
Joseph, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Beautiful property and really good food offerings. We booked room 901 and paid top dollar wanting views and a large outdoor area. On one evening after returning from a wine tasting and having driven over 6 hours, we were tired but looked forward to catching the sunset and drinking wine from our patio. Our next door neighbor had a group yoga party going on in their patio space with music and loud movement instructions coming from the yoga instructor. A hotel employee was in our room opening a bottle of our wine and we complained that we couldn’t go out on our patio with their entire group also outside. Employee was surprised at the number of people doing yoga and said she would talk with the instructor and hotel. Then the very next morning at 9 AM, the entire yoga gang was at it again. So disappointed as the hotel staff obviously did nothing about the situation nor did they follow up with any kind of explanation, really disappointing.
