Charming Hotel Vila Real / Portugal / 1983

The Pousada de Alijó has deepened its connection with Douro and its history of the oldest noted and regulated region in the world, offering an experience which will take the visitor back to the time and place of the Baron of Forrester.


Whether in the rooms or the restaurant, each space tells a different story about Douro.


This is the only Portuguese Pousada in the Douro Region.  Its name is homage to Joseph James Forrester, an English Businessman, who was rooted in Portugal during the XIX century, who, in 1855 received the title of Baron from King Fernando II, for his dedication to the state and the value he gave to Douro and the Port wine.


After works for reclassification, the Pousada was given a more contemporary environment, whilst still maintaining its Douro roots visible in every little detail.
