A Sustainable Approach in the Heart of Porto 

 

Located in Faria Guimarães, Porto, the 705 Porto Prime Home has introduced several initiatives to reduce the ecological footprint of its operations. Among the most impactful actions are:

  • Promoting the reuse of towels and bed linen, helping to save natural resources.  

These efforts reflect a daily commitment to operating responsibly while ensuring guests enjoy both comfort and quality during their stay.
