SurroundingsAn unbeatable base for the Porto stage of the Portuguese Way: the Cathedral (Sé), the traditional starting point of the route, is about 10 minutes away by bike. São Bento station is 500 metres away, and the Clérigos Tower, Livraria Lello and Bolhão Market are a short walk from the hotel; the Ribeira and the Douro riverfront round off the visit.
The best logistics of the Camino de Santiago. We have a hotel next to the cathedral of Santiago as a point of assistance and collection of our rental bicycles.
