ARTEH's Pestana Porto Receives 'Foresee Certificate'
OCTOBER 7, 2008. The Pestana Porto, an ARTEH Hotel in Oporto, received the 'Foresee Certificate of Good Food Hygiene Standards', a distinction which awards good levels of Hygiene and Food safety.
The certificate was attributed by Luso Cristal Consulting, which represents Foresee Food Safety in Portugal, as an indicator of good results obtained in the application of the Food Safety Management System based on the application of the HACCP program.
In Praca da Ribeira, in the historical centre of the city of Porto, one finds the Pestana Porto hotel, perfectly integrated into the scenery of the riverside area which offers an amazing view onto the Douro River and a unique atmosphere.
Partially set into the ancient medieval wall of the city, it occupies a picturesque set of buildings recovered from the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries which still retain their original facade and were recently recognised as a World Heritage site.
The hotel's rooms are customised and present special characteristics according to the building in which they are found as well as a contemporary decor designed for comfort and with attention to details.
At the restaurant, with its warm and relaxing atmosphere, allow yourself to be tempted by the innovative dishes or by the traditional flavours of the region of Portugal. Also enjoy a drink at the bar to exchange ideas or to groove to the sound of jazz or bossa nova.
The location of the Pestana Porto is perfect for venturing into the streets and alleys of the historical centre, to appreciate its architecture and monuments and visit the museums and famous Port Wine cellars on the South bank of the river.
