4 Stars Hotels in Viseu District, Portugal

Hotel with a classic style but cozy. Despite all the time that has passed on it, most things are in good condition. The only complaint was the extra bed, the mattress was very thin and in poor condition. It has a free parking area, which is not huge but it always allowed to park there without problems. Located in the historic center of the city. Breakfast, without being extraordinary, was of good quality and variety.

The hotel is located in the heart of the city centre, in the heart of the city centre. The coffee is very bad, unforgiving in Portugal and in a establishment of this level.

The building is very nice, right in the centre where most of the historic buildings are. The room was very big and also the bathroom. The staff are nice. The breakfast was very nice. The parking is limited and forget parking close by if it’s full. The blue carpets on the stairs need to be vacuumed as they are very dirty. The black out curtains don't close fully, i had to put my hair clip to keep closed. The biggest issue is they have old windows on the street side so forget going there if you actually want to sleep. They know the windows are bad as they said they have ordered new ones. The issue is the guests don’t know until they are trying to sleep with people screaming under their window. We were there new years eve, impossible to sleep so we asked to move room around 4am, they had another room with better windows so why didn’t they put us there in the 1st place. They said it was a family room but if they know the windows have NO soundproofing, they have to make the effort to make sure guests can sleep even if the room is slightly more expensive. Worst nights sleep ever and that makes everything else worse. The main people making noise were coming out of the hotel building but strange they said they had nothing going on. Ask for a room with double glazing windows or forget sleeping.

De locatie van het hotel is geweldig. Gelegen in een vallei aan de Douro met een fantastisch zicht. Het hotel is zeer rustig gelegen, een beetje geïsoleerd zelfs. De aankomst was goed, we kregen een warm welkom. Het personeel van het ganse hotel was erg vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Onze dochter van 12 had een volwaardig 3de bed, geen kampeer- of uitvouwbedje. Dat hebben we ten zeerste geapprecieerd. Het ontbijt was zeer uitgebreid (buffetvorm) en van goede kwaliteit. De laatste avond werd ons gemeld dat er erg weinig gasten in het hotel verbleven en of we het ok vonden om een ontbijt à-la-carte te kiezen om op deze manier verspilling tegen te gaan. Het gemeenschappelijke terras naast het zwembad was heel aangenaam, met loungezeteltjes. Er was ook mogelijkheid om buiten te eten (zowel voor ontbijt als voor lunch en diner). We hebben 2x in het hotel gedineerd. De kaart was klein van keuze, maar was wel lekker. Wat we minder vonden: - De hotelkamer was aan de kleine kant. - We vonden het jammer dat er geen balkon was, zodat we 's avonds nog van het mooie zicht konden genieten. - Het zwembad was niet verwarmd. Maar het mooie zicht maakte veel goed. - De uitrusting van de badkamer was een beetje passé. - Weinig parkeermogelijkheid door de naastgelegen watersportclub.

Spacious room overlooking the Douro River. No air conditioning the night we stayed because they said it was cold and raining and only the heat is available. The receptionist at check in was not very friendly or accommodating. She acted like it was a lot of trouble for her to arrange a wine tasting tour for us. The restaurant was deafening loud during dinner because there were a couple of tour groups. I would not recommend shrimp risotto.

Hotel Avenida is a 4-star boutique hotel right on the Praca da Republica in the center of Viseu. The hotel staff was warm welcoming and helpful (happily taking our bags in the morning before check in so we could explore the city). English and some other languages are spoken if needed. The room was delighful; spotlessly clean and enormous (although I must note that we did get a deluxe double). The bed was clean and comfortable (if a bit on the firm side). The bathroom had a fantastic shower and a new modern tub big enough for a swim (ok, maybe not, but still very big!). In spite of being right in the center of town, the room was quiet and the electric shades worked perfectly. Breakfast was fresh and delicious, especially the fruit and pastries. The hot food selection was a bit sparse, but the selection was hot and kept stocked. We highly recommend this hotel fo visitors to Viseu.

The staff is super friendly and are always there with a smile. It is a beautiful view but not as that beautiful if compared to other wineries in the region but the hotel and room size/amenities are just perfect. My only recommendation is that the breakfast/dining room since they are the same (which is okay) but the furniture/decoration should be a little bit more fancy to offer a better dining experience (for the dinner) as how it is, it is making it to look a little cheap. But overall it was a great stay.

Stayed for 1 night in August 2024, the hotel is grand and very welcoming. The receptionists are very helpful, even suggested a great hotel in the next town over (Zé Pataco in Canas de Senhorim) and it served great food highly recommend it. The breakfast at the hotel was good, a selection of fresh breads, cereals, fresh fruit, pancakes and scrambled eggs to name a few. The only down fall I had were signage is a bit poor, location foelr the swimming pool, bars and other areas in the hotel was not existent. I would definitely stay again as everything else was great.

The hotel is a 5* hotel quality. From comfort, food, cleaning and service. This is especially for the children of the reception and service in the pool. Super good water and the comfort that is located in the hotel is to be grateful.

The Hotel reached the expectations it had, as I already knew the development and maintain the quality of service and facilities. Regarding the price, the value presented by Trip was extremely competitive in relation to the other agencies for the same service conditions, and even in relation to the price that would be charged by the Hotel itself in a direct booking (which I cannot understand...). The breakfast provided was of excellent quality and quantity. The service was excellent, with all employees in service at the hotel in these 2 days of friendliness and efficiency far above average. However, I was a little disappointed that the Trip agency had not yet sent me an Invoice for the amount paid. The only certainty that I have that the payment was made, was given to me by the Hotel receptionist who told me that the rooms were paid for, but that he could not issue me an Invoice as the payment had been made to the Agency - which is natural !). In this situation, the lack of an Invoice was very unpleasant because I booked and paid for 3 rooms (for us and 2 other couples friends) and until now I don't have any proof of payment to ”do the math” with them.

For the most part, we enjoyed our stay at Delfim Douro. The setting, view, indoor and outdoor common spaces are quite lovely. The staff were all very friendly. Breakfast had a lot of variety and quality was good. We had dinner at the restaurant one evening and the dishes were bland and prawns were mushy--not good at all. We had a room on the -3 (ground) floor with a patio and two chairs, which was nice. As others have mentioned, the open concept bathroom is terrible. Who likes that? What designer thinks that kind of intimacy is appealing? I missed the comments prior to making the reservation, otherwise we probably would have chosen to stay elsewhere. Also, there were some plug in air ”fresheners” in the hall on our floor that were really atrocious, and we had to hold our noses to and from the elevator. A small thing, but unpleasant. All in all, we liked the hotel, and if they put some doors on the lieu, we would consider staying again.

Charming hotel in Portuguese wine country. The big advantage to this hotel (over the wine quintas and some other lovely looking hotels on the outskirts) is that this place is right in the middle of town - within easy walking distance of the Sanctuary of Nossa Senhora dos Remédios and other historic sights. So, when you've finished going port wine tasting all day (very nearby, but you really need a car for the gorgeous drive along the Douro and up and down the hills to tasting sites and quintas) you have a beautiful, historic town to walk around. The stand at the Castelo Signature was amazing - can't say enough about how helpful they were. VERY affordable, even the room we got with a terrace overlooking the town and the Sanctuary. Rooms lovely, not luxurious but very nice. Bathrobes and slippers. They have an on-site little cafe/bar, with an outdoor area as well by the pool. There's a spa area that looked nice when we were shown it, but we were too busy wine-tasting to use it. The free breakfast is amazing; they made us omelets and there were great pasties, breads, meats, cheeses, fruits, etc. The BEST thing about this hotel is arguably the restaurant, which I wold not be surprised to earn a Michelin star one day. My husband had the veal kebab and rice; I had a shrimp risotto that was spectacular. Incredibly, with this gourmet meal, including dessert and a bottle of one of the nicer wins, was just 76 Euros. One last thing - Lamego is an overlooked gem in the region. People stay at quintas, which are nice but limiting, or maybe in Paso de Regua or Pinhao (absolutely nothing to do, nowhere special to eat). Or they day-trip from Porto. Lamego is worth a trip on its own, and you then can be more leisurely about your wine-tasting expeditions. I firmly believe the Douro valley will be Tuscany in a decade, and Lamego will be at the center of it.
