Hi!

Does anyone have any recommendation for storage of baggage in Porto?

I'll be walking the Portuguese from Porto to SdC and taking the bus back. Thereafter, have plans to travel a bit, so would like to store baggage somewhere in Porto.

Any recommendations will be most appreciated.

Thank you!

No recommendation as I have no personal experience of their services.

I stayed at Hotel Poievera (spell) last May and left my bag there while I hiked the Camino. I was not charged for the service. It is right across the street from the train station with several bars/cafes nearby. The owners were very friendly and helpful. When I returned, they had some late cancellations and just charged me 25€ for a room. The charge at the start of my hike was about 40€. Bom Camino.

Olá,
there is a new luggage storage in Porto. It´s in the old city,Rua das Taipas 59. Have a look: https://blog.webook.pt/2016/12/30/the-cloakroom-o-primeiro-bengaleiro-do-porto
Google will translate it for you.

Bom caminho, Rainer

Porto is a major city with a multitude of accommodation choices. However, one simple family run place where I have stayed in the past is the Hotel Poveira opposite the
Porto - Campanhã station.
Here is their web.

Bom caminho!

Just thought I'd mention that I used them last year, and they were great.
