Room) our room was a studio, which must be the smallest, but it was huge. Due to the way the building was constructed, our unit has 2 areas - a very spacious living & kitchen area and a very spacious bed room. We enjoyed our little rest in the middle of the dat after a big walk etc. It really was pleasant to be there. Each room is named after a local legend, which really is lovely. Our bed was very comfy. Location) it is located right behind Coimbra University. Very convenient to go anywhere in Coimbra. And, if you go to/from Coimbra Railway Station, the taxi fare should not go over €10. Breakfast) unfortunately, we did not try dinner there, but the breakfast they served us amazing. Various types of bread & yummy pancakes. I would like to tell you how nice their scrambled eggs and veggies were! I had their breakfast 3 times, but they never disappointed me. In fact, I always looked forward to their breakfast. Staff) all the staff were very friendly and helpful. As one of them told us, they were professional with a human touch. All in all, we loved our stay wholeheartedly. When going back to Coimbra one day, we will definitely go back to Sapiential.

The hotel lobby was beautiful and our room equally so. LOVED the concept of the marble books throughout the bathroom area. Bed - amazing. Pillows - like a cloud (as Lara promised!) Breakfast buffet was far beyond the basic pastries at other hotels; and the ability to order scrambled eggs was a real treat. And the food was so fresh and beautifully presented. And your staff provided the best customer service we ever experienced. Lara was so professional, yet warm and engaging, taking the time to answer questions about Coimbra and give us a short history about the hotel itself. Ana Jesus was also lovely; quick to help however she could.

Very comfortable with great facilities. The personnel were excellent in every area, and very friendly, relaxed, and communicative - but professional at the same time. The food (breakfast, dinner, and the odd room-service) was always very good, and plenty of choice - main dishes always changed from day-to-day. We even complimented the chef on one of them. The swimming-pool was a welcome addition to cool off on some of the hot days. Here again the service at the kiosk was excellent. We really enjoyed an evening of live music in the pool area. We have no hesitation in recommending this hotel.

FAQs about hotels in Coimbra

A Seat of Learning and Royalty

Portugal’s medieval capital, and a pioneer of fado music alongside its modern counterpart Lisbon, Coimbra is a vibrant university city with a good helping of historic sights.

The university is the country’s oldest and its attractive buildings cover a small hill overlooking the Mondego River. The institution has an excellent science museum, the ornate Joanina Library, and one of the world’s oldest botanical gardens which contributes to the lush landscape.

The midweek nightlife in the city’s bars and restaurants is popular with students, while shopping options range from the stores of the CoimbraShopping complex to smaller boutiques on cobbled streets in the historic Baixa district.

The medieval centre houses the museum of Coimbran sculptor Machado de Castro and the Old Cathedral, begun under the reign of the first Portuguese King, Afonso Henriques. He is buried in Santa Cruz Monastery, while the tomb of a later queen – Elizabeth of Aragon – is in the Monastery of Santa Clara-a-Nova. She founded this hilltop convent to replace flood-prone Santa Clara-a-Velha below. Between them is Portugal dos Pequenitos where Portugal’s main monuments are reproduced in miniature.

Nearby is Quinta das Lágrimas, a 19th-century mansion that is now a luxury hotel on Booking.com. Also available are cheap hostels and guest houses near the 2 main train stations.

    After Porto and then Lisbon we found Coimbra to be a welcome relief from the tourist hustle and bustle. Its a lovely town, quieter than the bigger cities but with some great sites. The University Library is spectacular as is the Cathedrals and the old town is very interesting wandering around. Definately worth the visit and turned out to be the highlight of our trip.

    We stayed one afternoon, night, and the following morning in Coimbra. This was enough time for us to explore what we wanted to see, which were some cathedrals in the old town, the university area, a nice botanical garden, and the restaurants and shops in the old town down by the river.

    It is a nice city, but lots of construction and we were there during Burning of the Ribbons, and the parade so the University Library was closed. We saw the gardens, which were ok. I thought it was fun to see the parade and all of the students celebrating, but my husband said he could have skipped Coimbra. We stayed on the main street, Rua Ferreira Borges, up the hill, (near town hall), but our friends stayed in a place that was parallel to the river, R. da Alegria. They said it was not a pleasant walk to their place as it smelled like urine.

    The city will be more inviting in a few years when some of the construction projects are completed. The people seemed friendly and helpful. I was disappointed to not find any churches or cathedrals that didn't charge an admission to enter. Most other places in Spain, France, and Germany were not like this.

    After visiting Lisbon and Porto it was nice to visit this beautiful historic city and escape the crowds. We enjoyed the music (Fado), food, and history of the city. We found the city to be easily walkable, although like much of Portugal, prepare for hills. We relished the quite walks through the city streets in the evening.

    We loved our stay at Entre Ruas. Excellent location right near the old town and university, however still lovely and quiet as the apartment has double windows. It was spacious and had everything we needed, including a washing machine with detergent, tea, coffee etc. Danielle and the team at Entre Ruas were so lovely and helpful, and the team at Hotel Oslo went above and beyond also.

Tasty breakfast with friendly stuff. Incredible territory with cutest goats. Parking inside, so you don’t worry about your car, but still not far away from Coimbra. We will definitely stay again!

    - Good hotel with kids as it had a mini park in the swimming pool area. So close for parents to keep an eye on them. There was also an other activities room for kids. - The Breakfast was great and had a large variety of both savoury and sweet. - Can walk on river front from hotel to city centre - Had some discounts for sightseeing like "Portugal dos Pequenitos"
