Situated in the Praça da Ribeira, heart of the
historical center
of Porto and constructed on part of the mediaeval city wall,
the Pestana Porto Hotel forms part of a block of town houses dating
from the XVI, XVII and XVIII centuries. This beautiful adjoining group
of buildings was classified by UNESCO
as part of the World Heritage site which extends along
the Douro River enjoying a magnificent view and unique atmosphere.
In
the heart of Porto, only 20 minutes from the International
Airport "Francisco
Sá Carneiro" and 10
minutes from "São
Bento Railway Station, the Pestana Porto Hotel, with all charm
of the Ribeira riverside area, in
buildings of an original design classified as world heritage,
stands proudly on the bank of the Douro River.
In the bustle of the city, after taking a boat ride on the river, exploring
streets and alleys, admiring the architecture, seeing
the sights, visiting the wonderful port lodges, discovering
markets, cafés, museums and enticing shops... it's good to have
somewhere to come home to. |
