Expert reviews:

Condé Nast Traveler

99.6

"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

Luxury

"Palacio do Freixo is an elegant, historic hotel situated on the Douro River." Full review

The Telegraph

8.0

"Unlikely pairing of an 18th-century palace and neighbouring flour mill creates one of Porto’s most luxurious accommodation options, and offers quiet reprieve for guests seeking comfort and relaxation." Full review

Time Out

"If you fancy feeling like a prince or princess on your next trip to Porto, book yourself into an 18th century palace at the Palácio do Freixo." Full review
