Give it five stars for everything except the rooms lighting was too dark and impractical.

We loved our stay at the Monverde Wine Experience Hotel. The property was amazing, beautiful, quiet and fabulous accommodation. The spa was very relaxing and the bar and restaurant were wonderful. The bar staff are very knowledgeable about their wines and know exactly what wines will suit your palette. The tasting menu for dinner with wine pairing was delicious with very attentive and knowledgeable staff. The Wine Tasting Experiences we did were one of the best - thank you so much Sofia! We found all the staff to be so friendly, polite and helpful always going over and above. Thank you so much for our wonderful stay.

We loved our stay on this enchanting site. The site is magnificent. Our room was breathtaking. The staff is friendly. The breakfast is very good. Only downside: we chose to had diner at the hotel restaurant and we were very disappointed with this part of our experience. The service, food and wine were disappointing.

If you’re after some down time in your travels, Monverde is an excellent choice. Accomodation, Setting, included breakfast and an added spa treatment, all great value and exceeded our expectations.

This is a stunning property located in the Wine valley district with beautiful views of the vineyards. The reception and restaurant area are modern and well designed, spacious, and comfortable. Breakfast and dinner (not included) were excellent quality. The Room was in a separate block a short walk/drive away. It was exceptionally spacious with a comfortable bed, plenty of storage, and a very large bathroom (with two sinks!). Staff were always welcoming and friendly. Overall a lovely peaceful experience. You need a car to get to local restaurants/towns.

Wow from beginning to end!

This hotel was a dream! Luxurious but cozy, delicious food and amazing views. The room was super spacious, decorated with a good taste, soundproof rooms and just everything you need for a perfect wine hotel get away. The staff was wxtremely friendly, we booked a private wine tasting and the host was amazing. I could easily spend weeks and weeks in this marvelous place. Oh and the pool was amazing as well.

Great property with wonderful design, amenities and ambiance. Food in restaurant is excellent, though organization of staff leaves a lot to be desired. Single person doing seating and taking orders proves a choke point delaying service. Hope this gets fixed, it could be so great.

Lovely in the vineyard

This was the third and final stay in a short tour of wine related hotels and quintas in and around the Douro region of northern Portugal. While they were all excellent, we both agreed that Monverde was the only one we absolutely must return to. The location is absolutely stunning, with the hotel's central building and the 3 accommodation buildings all situated within the vineyards themselves. The architecture and decor managed that very difficult balance between design and comfort expertly, and the wine and food were of the highest quality. That said, the thing that made this place such an unmissable spot was the staff. From check in to breakfast, wine tasting to massage treatments in the spa, chefs to the cocktail barman, everyone was fantastic at their job and incredibly friendly and welcoming. Quite possibly the best hotel stay we've had in Portugal. See you next time.

Room was excellent. Good linens and comfortable bed. As you would expect, based in a vineyards. Good pool. Very friendly and helpful staff. WiFi was patchy and weak. Food was hit and miss. Disappointed with tasting menu where seasoning was a problem. Much enjoyed the grouper. The dessert can charitably be described as poor. Thankfully the flight of wine was generous in quantity and rescued the evening along with the fun waiter - vino verde seems to be done in quantity as much as anything. That said breakfast was good as was the food on the bar menu which we had second night

We spent 3 nights at the hotel which is situated very beautifully in the middle of a vineyard. The room was very nice however a bit dark felt like you were entering a cave. This impression was also strengthened by the fact that some of the walls was made from stone. The room was comfortable but we found mold in our shower, a bit concerning since the hotel is only four years old. The staff was very friendly and it was a very nice complementary wine tasting one of the night. The only disappointment was the food in the restaurant. We were four people in our party and only one of us found the food OK. Two of us had a fish dish which was uneatable. It tasted like sea water. All of us had also taken the beef tuna and salmon tartar as a starter. None of us were able to finish it since it only tasted raw beef and fish. No finesse and no taste. It was like the chef was afraid of using species as well as salt and pepper. We went out for dinner elsewhere for the remainder of our stay and found places with very good food in Amarante. Thus we can recommend the hotel but stay away from the restaurant.
