A veritable mecca for wine lovers, The Yeatman commands a hilltop on the bank of the Douro River in Vila Nova de Gaia, Portugal. Naturally, the hotel has a huge focus on wine, from the 25,000-bottle cellar to the decanter-shaped pool and even in the spa — where you’ll find a menu of wine-centric treatments from vinotherapie maestro, Caudalie. This oenophile theme extends to the Presidential Suite where, in the main bedroom, you’ll find a bed that has been carved into a wooden Port barrel (yes, really). The 1,800-sq-ft suite has two en-suite bedrooms and two living areas that lead to a 1,240-sq-ft terrace with a private swimming pool and garden with magical views of the Porto skyline; man the terrace’s telescope to take a closer look at the historical city.

From $2,495 per night. Contact Jan-Erik Ringertz, general manager, reservations@theyeatman.com, +351 220 133 128, the-yeatman-hotel.com
