Very active friendly. 4km of beautiful walking trails along each side of the river (total of 8km). The 41km bike path Ecopista was stunning. Mountains are just a few km away with endless trails for biking and hiking.

A beautiful city with a really interesting central area.
A beautiful city with a really interesting central area. There is a waterpark outside the town and plenty of shopping at reasonable prices in the town. You can take a pedal boat on the river and the local government appear to be investing in the river aspect.
The cathedral is a must see and has recently been renovated. Nearby is the museum/art gallery.
There are some really lovely cafés and restaurants with terraces looking out on the river serving traditional pasteries and food.
I would definitely go back for a couple of nights again.

We chose this town for a one-night stay between a house rental in the Minho area and a flight out of Porto. It was a bit of a random choice based on my criteria of a cute and well-priced hotel under an hour from the airport, but the town also has some cool history so we gave it a go.
Upon arrival, we discovered that it was the first night of the town fair! I have been to several fairs in Spain but this was my first in Portugal. It was the same basic vibe - families delighted to see one another, tasty treats from food stands, brightly like rides blaring pop music over the sound of teens screaming. We grabbed ourselves a couple of petite pours of Super Bock and tried Portuguese-style hot dogs, which are packaged in jars or cans and come with lettuce and crispy fried onions; my Chicago-born partner even approved of how good they were! Amarante puts on a good fair, and it takes place along the river so we were able to explore the main streets of town in conjunction with the party.
The only bummer about the fair is that we couldn't get in to see inside of the church, which is of some importance having been built by a saint. I plan to spend more time in Portugal in the coming years, so maybe I will head back to Amarante for an afternoon to take in the monuments.

The staff were young, attentive, and at all times very engaging. Without doubt, they are a great credit to the reputation of the hostel. The interior design and layout of the hostel has been really well thought out and makes for a really relaxing stay. This hostel is absolutely first rate!

There always seems to be lots going on.
There always seems to be lots going on. The town tries to cater for a wide range of interests and the surrounding countryside offers good walks and bike rides. Restaurants are good and on the whole value for money. There is a Michelin star restaurant which we didn't try although it it was recommended.
We love this hotel and will continue to stay here when traveling to Amarante. The location is ideal, so close to everything, but it is very quiet and serene. We brought a friend with us and she was equally impressed. Both rooms were large, with a beautiful view of the patio below and the river. I understand they are closing to remodel after the first of the year, which is good. The carpets could use an update, but I hope they don't change too much as we love the elegance and warmth of this hotel!
Really great hotel: excellent staff, from reception, the restaurant, the cleaning staff - all went out of their way to give great service and it felt like they really meant it.
Room was beautiful, restaurant was very good for both breakfast and dinner.
Location is enchanting. beautiful village, great things to do in the area and very relaxing.
All of the details were there - just an awesome place!
Hotel deserves it's 5 stars and more, hope we have the opportunity to return!
This property is basically six smaller rental units in the hills near Amarante. Our unit was lovely decorated, modern, with good AC, a nice comfortable bed, good bathroom, and very functional and complete kitchenette. Smart TV is great too, as is the possibility to buy local cooled white wine. The place was very soundproofed and easy to make dark, so it's excellent to relax. The surroundings are beautiful as is the view from the pool. The pool area is great for relaxation.
Amarante is beautiful and we liked everything at Casa Fontao. This is our third visit. Louisa is the perfect host and Casa do Fontao is exceptional in every way. The bedrooms are large, beautifully furnished in traditional Portuguese style and the beds are very comfortable. The breakfasts are delicious. Louisa made our stay at Casa do Fontao, special in every way. A big 'thank you' Louisa for making my wife and I, plus our friends, so welcome during our third visit.
Incredible service and a historic house. The host took the time to help us see the house and the history and allowed us a moment of seeing how she grew up. Her grandfather is an accomplished artist and the works displayed throughout the house pay homage to the history. This place is a little piece of magic in Portugal.
Breakfast was simple and perfect and getting to walk the grounds at sunset inspired me.
We were met at the apartment to get the door entry codes. Accommodations were very tastefully decorated. It was furnished with a combination washer/dryer that was unfamiliar but much appreciated. The building was quiet, we could see the river from our apartment. The location was very close to the river and bridge. Highly recommend this accommodation for your stay in Amarante.
Peso Village made our visit to the Douro Valley a trip to remember and wonderful o every way! The house with its spacious rooms and indoor pool were so very relaxing, we had a romantic dinner by the fire one night.. I’m so glad we did not stay in Pinhao, but chose Peso Village instead. The day exploring Amarante was lovely.. and the drive to Pinhao was beautiful.
I stayed in about 10 places during my three weeks of travel in Portugal. And, this one was my favorite of all of them! This is an impressive building that happens to be adjacent to a five-star hotel and is across the street from the river. It has several rooms with very nice living and dining areas. I love the décor and the breakfast was fantastic!
This is an amazing place. A beautiful mansion, with elegantly furnished rooms. Luisa is a sweet and lively host. She took care of us from the moment we arrived! This is the nicest place we stayed in Portugal (and we stayed in many excellent places). This is an excellent base to explore th Douro valley and its surroundings (a car is a must).
Clean new spaces with country charm setting, swimming pool and close to Amarante.
The people were excellent for service, information and activities. We tried and enjoyed the craft beer, berries and the great breakfasts.
It would make a good home base while visiting the Guimarães, Duoro etc. areas.
Day trips to Porto are easy.
Family house that's functionnal and recently refreshed, in the heights of Amarante with great space to play outside.
Ideal base for activities in the Douro valley with the family. Great welcome from our host as well as delicate attentions and informations for our trip. Perfect.
Great place, wonderful people. We were the only guests on that time. Whole house and garden were for us. Breakfast
was fantastic. We recommend this place, which is close to Amarante, where there are a lot of interesting places to visit.
The location in the historical center of Amarante is a perfect and safe place for the car (in the courtyard). The property is a spacious old private building with a small but nice yard. Good restaurants are just around the corner.
