Octant Douro
EN 222 (Estrada Nacional 222), km 41, 4550-631 Castelo de Paiva, Portugal – Excellent location - show map
We recently stayed at Octant Douro to celebrate our first year anniversary and we couldn't have been happier. I think we were given a free upgrade and the view of our room was incredible! The staff went above and beyond to ensure that our stay was perfect. We were welcomed with fruit, a bottle of wine, and a personalised card in our room, which made us feel really special. We ate in both of the hotel restaurants and the food never disappointed. Again, we were given a special treat at the end to mark the occasion! The breakfast is also really good. Although we didn't have a spa treatment we made use of the steam room, sauna and heated pool, which were excellent. The hotel is beautiful but the staff's excellent service and attention to detail really set it apart. It's clear that they take great pride in their work.
