"One of the country’s newest pousadas is an 87-room gem improbably created from a magnificent 1742 baroque palace...and an adjoining eighteenth-century brick flour mill. ... The new best bet in Porto." Full review
Star Service "Set on the banks of the Douro, on the east side of the Arrabida Bridge, a short five-minute taxi ride to the old city, and looking out across the river toward Vila Novia." Full review
