"Really impressed with our stay here. Central location and yet a very quiet and spacious, comfortable room. Loved the historic building and old furniture/pharmacy artefacts in the communal areas whilst the bedroom was modern, clean, quiet and with excellent air con which was needed! Staff were very helpful, including not only ordering us a taxi but also walking us to the meeting point (as the guesthouse is on a pedestrianised road) and waiting with us to check we got it. We knew this was a...

"My husband and I travel a ton and this place is one of the best we've ever stayed at. Not only is it a very unique and beautiful property, the staff and customer service were as good as it gets. We were greeted with a mimosa and some sweet bread and we were provided a picnic basket breakfast in bed that was superb. We were so impressed. Everyone was so warm and welcoming and the hotel is well maintained with a really cool bougie meets old world charm vibe."

Top Coimbra University Hotel Reviews

Hotel Oslo

10/10 Excellent

"The roof top lounge has a great view of the city, and offers a very relaxing atmosphere. At time of checkin, the staff offered to park my car in the lot opposite to the hotel., which I found to be of immense help."

Vila Gale Coimbra Hotel

8/10 Good

"Bel hôtel sans prétention, facile d’accès, mais trop en retrait du vieux Coimbra et situé dans un quartier douteux…"

ibis Coimbra Centro

8/10 Good

"good location.Good price,SPOTLESS."

NH Coimbra Dona Inês

10/10 Excellent

"Très bel endroit où rester à coimbra."

Zero Box Lodge Coimbra

10/10 Excellent

"Superb location. Great staff. Comfortable bed. Great value."

Sapientia Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect hotel, comfortable beds, amazing location."

SOPHIA STUDIOS

10/10 Excellent

"Great location! So close to everything in downtown area. Of course you need to walk up the hill to the university. Place was clean and nicely renovated. Air conditioning is much appreciated. The plugs in the kitchen are tricky to reach, and it’s not very soundproof between units / with the staircase, but otherwise a wonderful place to stay in Coimbra."

Hotel Astoria

10/10 Excellent

"Where do we start. This was a fabulous hotel. Everything we expected and hoped for. Sonia looked after us from the moment we arrived and we could not have wished for a better host. If you want a modern hotel with square rooms and satellite TV, this is not the place for you. Keeping the style of its initial build 100 years ago makes this place very special from the opulence of the residents lounge, the ship like dining room and the rooms which are old but well cared for. We were fortunate to have a room facing the river with large balcony doors and air conditioning. The breakfast was exceptional. We dropped one star on the amenities only because it would have been nice to have a bar. To be fair there is an honesty bar but its not the same. Deserves all 5 stars overall and we re already looking at dates to return."
