Known for its majestic bridges, Port wine cellars, and the charming streets of the Ribeira district, Porto is an absolute dream to explore with lots of things to see and do. But the city's beauty comes with a catch: those hills and cobbled streets that make Porto so picturesque are not friendly to travelers dragging luggage.

Luggage storage at Porto train stations
Porto has two main train hubs: São Bento, right in the city center and famous for its stunning tile work, and Campanhã, the major hub for long-distance and international trains.
Luggage lockers at São Bento station
São Bento station has official lockers inside, although availability is limited. They offer lockers in small, medium, and large sizes, and payment is accepted only in coins (in euros). You pay the first hour upfront, and the remaining amount when you open it, with a limit of 24 hours of storage.
Luggage lockers at Campanhã station
Campanhã also has official on-site luggage lockers on the first floor. They’re open 24 hours and can be used for up to 7 days. The lockers are free for train passengers, so they fill quickly.
Other luggage storage options near Porto train stations
A lot of travelers rely on third-party services that partner with local businesses around São Bento and Campanhã stations. Companies like Bounce, Stasher, and LuggageHero all have numerous partner locations within a few minutes' walk of both stations.
If you know you won’t be returning to the train station later (e.g., you're heading straight to a hotel or the airport), a pick-up and delivery service like LUGGit is the most convenient choice.
Luggage storage at Porto airport (Francisco Sá Carneiro)
If you have a long layover or prefer to drop your bags immediately upon arrival, Porto airport offers self-service luggage lockers. You’ll find them on the ground floor, before security, and they’re open 24/7. Prices are per item and per 4-hour period, starting at roughly 3.50€ for a small locker. Check the airport’s site for specific size and hourly rates.
If you plan to head straight into the city center (a 30-minute metro ride), book LUGGit. A Keeper can meet you at the airport and deliver your luggage directly to your hotel, or vice versa, saving you an entire round trip.
Luggage storage in local businesses across Porto
Platforms like Bounce, Stasher, and LuggageHero connect you to a vast network of local businesses (cafés, shops, hotels, etc.) all over the city, allowing you to store your bags for a fee. This is often a great, highly localized option if you are near the most popular tourist attractions, like the Clérigos Tower or Mercado do Bolhão.
You must book and pay through their app or website before storing your bags.
Bounce has the highest number of locations in key tourist areas and the highest insurance. From 6.75€ for one suitcase.
Stasher has great coverage in the city center and near transport links. From 6.78€ for one suitcase.
LuggageHero has an hourly pricing option, with daily rates starting at 8.90€ for one suitcase.
Important things to keep in mind
- Operating hours vary: the hours depend entirely on the partner business (e.g., a café may close earlier than a 24/7 hotel). Always check the specific hours before booking and planning your pick-up.
- Safety varies: while the platforms vet their partners, the storage setup (a back room, a closet, etc.) isn’t always the safest. Check user reviews for the specific location before booking.
Self-service luggage lockers in Porto
If you prefer a dedicated, fixed locker location over storing bags inside a third-party business, City Lockers operates several locker stations, including locations in Trindade Metro Station, Bolhão Metro Station, Ribeira, and Clérigos. They often offer extended hours (some 24/7) and varying locker sizes for up to 7 days of storage.
Lockers are available on a first-come, first-served basis, so availability may be limited. For safety, lockers are under CCTV surveillance.
Luggage storage in hotels in Porto
If you’re a guest, most hotels will store your luggage before check-in or after check-out free of charge, just ask the front desk. If you’re not a guest, some larger hotels may agree to store bags for a small fee, but this is entirely at their discretion.
However, if you’re staying in a vacation rental (Airbnb), this is usually not an option, as vacation rentals lack a front desk. Choosing a different service is your best bet.
