Checking In...Hotel Pestana Porto, Porto (Portugal)















Located along the Rio Douro, the 4-star Pestana Porto Hotel is as charming as the city of Porto. This boutique hotel was formed by combining 11 traditional buildings dating from the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries.

Located in the heart of the city's historical center, on the Praça de Ribeira, you can see the port wine lodges that dot the Vila Nova de Gaia side of the river from the balconies of the hotel. The hotel is located just minutes from the Casa do Infante (Prince Henry the Navigator’s birthplace), the 14th C. Igreja de São Francisco, and the 19th C. Palácio de Bolsa (stock exchange).
