Great location near university in Coimbra

The service and restaurant were top notch. The room itself was sparsely decorated ( we took the suite) and were surprised to see a pre-fab bathroom in it. It was clean and everything worked but it took away from being a ‘design hotel’

Everything was excellent apart from the cheap and nasty toilet paper. What a shame to provide such a poor quality bathroom paper when everything else is eo well done.

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.

Beautiful hotel right by the university. We lucked out and found a parking spot. Directions on parking were not easy to follow but the instructions on the back of the parking permit were great (photo below). Staff were excellent, dinner was delicious and breakfast was very good. There was happy hour at six which was lovely. The only negative was that the drapes did not close properly and light came in making it too bright at night. We also could hear the people above very clearly!
