Very nice hotel located centrally in the best part of the city (next to the Castle and Uni). Very good service, and excellent breakfast and restaurant.
The hotel is in a convenient central location with an easy walk to sights, shops and dining options. The rooms are simple and very functional with excellent breakfast available. Staff were very helpful and informative.
The staff were great. They helped us find a parking spot, told us how to get around, mixed some great Negronis for our night cap, fabulous breakfast and an explained how to navigate out of this beautiful town. The room and bed made for a much needed rest on our road trip through Portugal.
Excellent location in the old town next to all the university sites. Great views from room and rooftop bar. Lovely dining courtyard.
Staff were excellent
Such a nice property and very close to the university, shopping, restaurants. I’d highly recommend dinner here as well as the stay. Bed is very comfortable and the shower is nice!
Great location and staff very helpful. Good restaurant too.

Good location
It was ok, but hotel room had some issues and was a bit lacking for the price point and star rating. Rooms have nice and creative decorations but furniture was so so. Location and views were top notch, breakfast so so.
Very hilly to get down into town then back up, but what an incredible view. Right near the University. Great stay. Great breakfast, and a great dinner was had in the restaurant.
Great stay and great location. Staff were warm and friendly. I did not have a chance to visit some local restaurants because of all the steps and steep hills but, luckily for me and my family, the onsite restaurant was A+. Delicious food offered for breakfast, lunch and dinner. This is the place to stay at in Coimbra.
Staff so friendly and welcoming. Clean rooms, beautiful design of bar/lobby/restaurant as well as rooms. Breakfast buffet had many choices and was delicious food. The hotel is located immediately below the historic university buildings. Our room had a spacious balcony on a quiet courtyard (autumn). The rooftop patio offers beautiful views of the city. Staff provided a free drink upon arrival, a free glass of wine at 6pm, and brought chocolate and a bedtime story to the room in the evening. This is our favorite hotel in Portugal, improved only if they would provide a kettle or coffeemaker in the room.
