Douro is a spectacular region and their hostel sits right in the middle of bliss. An extremely close walk to one of the best wineries in the world + very quick to the train station. Pedro and Sara were so kind and would stay there again in a heartbeat.

Couldn’t have asked for a better stay! Pedro and Sara were such welcoming hosts and made my time there so comfortable. Definitely one of the best hostels I’ve ever been to and would give it more stars if I could. Hope to be back soon!

From the moment we arrived in Pinhão Pedro and Sarah made us feel so welcome! Pedro greeted us on our walk to the hostel without even knowing in advance who we were, it was amazing! 😄 Sarah was so welcoming introducing us to fellow guests and offering us a drink immediately upon our arrival and was so incredibly kind walking through all the wonderful sites and hikes the Douro has to offer! All of her recommendations were perfect and made for such an effortless and enjoyable visit. We ate (and drank 😉) well in Pinhão. The room was cozy and quiet. The bathrooms and showers were pristine. The kitchen was as perfectly equipped. The rooftop patio and terraced gardens were lovely and provided fantastic views of the beautiful vineyard landscape and mountains. Staying with Pedro and Sarah at Hostel Douro Backpackers was a highlight off our trip to Portugal and definitely one of the best lodging experiences we’ve had in all our travels!

Pedro is an amazing host. He welcome me with a wine, gave great recommendations and is very fun to talk to. His hostel is beautiful with a great garden on the roof and well set up rooms. The other guests were very friendly too. My favorite hostel in Portugal.

Exceptionally clean and well kept, the hostel felt palatial. Pedro and Sara were excellent hosts with great recommendations and were fun to hang out with, plus they were understanding when I had some travel difficulties. It was comfortable and the dorms felt really private, even when shared with others.

Everything is perfect, Pedro and Sara are amazing people very nice and helpful. The place are clean and comfortable for a solo female traveler. The rooftop and the garden area are clean and great to chill and have a nice evening. They also provide a breakfast and drinks for the guests and you can put tips how much you want.

This is one of those places that you want to keep all for yourself but the owners are so kind and special you just need to tell everyone you meet to stay here. And we have! Clean, comfortable, great gathering and cooking space, owners are superb, excellent location. I will stay here again.

Pedro's incredible hospitality. He made calls to the local attractions and gave indispensable recommendations. Also, the attention to detail in the build out of the hostel was very much appreciated! Everything about the experience was dialed in. I hope to be back!

Very well thought hostel with exhaustive facilities and some extras. Even though breakfast is not included in the offer, it is available on site. Also, I checked in after midnight. Not only was the owner flexible allowing this, but I was also greeted with a glass of local wine. Overall, this is a great property to stay in and it is conveniently located both in Pinhão and the entire Douro region.
