Douro Palace Hotel Resort & Spa is a four-star hotel set within the former Quinta de São João, a 19th-century manor house featuring original stonework and traditional tiles, nestled into the hillside overlooking the River Douro. The building’s historic character blends seamlessly with 60 panoramic rooms, an organic kitchen garden that supplies the Eça Restaurant directly, and nine hectares of outdoor space where the Douro provides a permanent backdrop. For those seeking a distinctive setting for meetings, conferences and team-building activities, the hotel offers four meeting rooms overlooking the Douro landscape, with capacity for up to 200 people — creating the ideal conditions for clear thinking away from the noise of the city.
