Plussat: Location excellent. Good selection at breakfast. Comfy beds. Good value for money.

Miinukset: Nothing disappointed me. These hotels are pretty standard and are reliable and what we expected.

Plussat: We could walk to everything we wanted to see. The nearby gardens are fabulous. It’s so beautiful everywhere you turn.

Miinukset: We had no complaints at all.

Plussat: Steeped in history and folklore

Plussat: The staff was super friendly.The gardens are beautiful. The breakfast wonderful.

Plussat: From the beautiful location to the exceptional customer service, our stay was dreamlike. Mel and Suzette at Bamboo Spa delighted us with their amazing skill and open smiles. The Arcadas restaurant was a memorable experience, with every dish showing an Incredible attention to detail and complexity of flavours seldom encountered. Caroline and Luis walked us through this experience and we couldn't have asked for better guides. Worth mentioning the care and attention of all the front desk staff who were incredible helpful. Would definitely return!

Miinukset: Everything was great

Plussat: i liked everything about this hotel. exceptional. real 5 star all round .

Plussat: Staff tried hard

Miinukset: Very tired hotel. Carpets were dirty and smelled musty and in one part of vomit. Furniture was cheap and didnt look clean.

Plussat: The grounds were very nice, the room size was great and the breakfast was excellent. We had the opportunity to spend time with Augusto in the lounge and he was over the top friendly and very helpful - an excellent host!

Plussat: Standard large modern 3* business hotel, in quiet side street not far from station and old town. Clean and comfortable room with bathtub and good wifi.

Miinukset: Bit of a smell of stale cigarette smoke; weather was mild, so was able to keep window open all night, and otherwise no complaints.

Plussat: Pool was perfect, enjoyed playing ping pong, there is also some gym equipment. Location is ideal to either easily walk into town or walk to the beautiful park in the other direction. Great for people who love to go running in the morning. Easy walk to either of the two train stations as well. Super comfortable bed!!!!

Miinukset: Breakfast buffet was a bit basic, but overall ok.

Plussat: The food at the restaurant was horrible. They should serve real portuguese dishes . Gourmet dishes should be avoide. A true disaster . Good hotel terrible and expensive restaurate

Plussat: 1. Location 2. Front desk staff are very friendly and helpful

Miinukset: 1. Small Room 2. Poor Bathroom ventilation

Plussat: Very friendly and helpful staff. Every effort was taken to make us feel happy and comfortable during our stay. Excellent breakfast served in the morning. It is a charming hotel in a business district.

Plussat: Near the bus station. Easy to get in and out All the staff were very helpful. Room was great. Has a swimming pool.

Miinukset: A little far from center of town . 15 minute walk. Some of the younger staff at the reception desk need a little more training in how to get around the city.

Plussat: This is an exceptional nice hotel. Everything was excellent but especially the lovely, friendly, and very helpful staff. I had a very large room and can find no fault

Miinukset: The property is excellent, no faults

Plussat: Hyvä uima-allas. Siisti huone ja hyvät sängyt. Sopivan matkan päässä ksupungista, eikä liian kapeilla kaduilla. Parkkipaikka.

Plussat: The room was large enough and well-maintained. Very comfortable bed. Great small spa. Excellent massage service

Miinukset: The location is a bit far from everything in a commercial kind of zone.

Plussat: Staff very helpful and friendly.

Plussat: Hyvä ja monipuolinen aamiainen. Siisti huone.

Plussat: The staff was really nice and helpful

Miinukset: The window was directly to the middle of the street, with no privacy.

Plussat: Location, clean, breakfast and staff

Miinukset: All good

Plussat: Good size apartment. Very large for two people. Well equipped and in a separate building form the main hotel.

Miinukset: Smell of rotting wood from a building site next door flowing in through the stairwell window. Steep, stone staircase leading the apartment. No extractor fan in bathroom. Bathroom windows not sealed and no heating caused the room to be very cold at night. Breakfast was minimal and ‘hot’ foods were not fresh and tended to be cold. Fruit juice was very watered down.

Plussat: Hyvä hotelli automatkailijalle Portossa piipahtamiseen. Iso parkkitalo korttelin päässä ja keskustan nähtävyydet tavoitettavissa myös jalkaisin, jos ei ihan pientä kävelyä säikähdä.

Plussat: Very nice room. Very clean. Good location close to the train station. Very good value for money.

Miinukset: It was at the bottom of the hill, so it's quite a trek to the main attractions.

Plussat: Sijainti kätevä. Vaikka itse hotelli ei olekaan vanhan kaupungin puolella, on ainakin sen ylimmäistä kerroksista loistelias näkymä vanhaan keskustaan ja yliopistolle. Kadun puoleiset parvekkeet olivat myös kiitettävät suuret sekä oleskeluun että maisemien ihailuun.

Miinukset: Rakennus on hieman betonisen ja karun tuntuinen. Jos kaipaa tunnelmallista majapaikkaa, tämä ei ehkä ole oikea valinta.

Plussat: Close to center

Miinukset: Not a clearly visible parking entrance from the street. Thank goodness for GPS, I would have passed the hotel.

Plussat: Lovely traditional building - lots of space - good facilities - clean - friendly staff

Miinukset: HOWEVER - this is a student area and they partied all night right outside the hostel - until dawn - and this is January! The noise was incessant and then there was pissing in the street outside!

Plussat: We changed to an in-suite doble room and the hostel standard increased significantly. Better isolation, heaters available and really comfy bed.

Miinukset: It is fine if you don't have to use shared bathrooms, not for hygiene or cleanliness, but for low temperature and lack of proper isolation of the space.

Miinukset: Hinta laatusuhde huono. Liikenteen melua. Epäsiisti. Melua käytävästä ja muista huoneista.

Plussat: Really good placement to visit Coimbra.

Miinukset: We visited it on December. Showers were together at bottom level and in this area were not any heat source or equipment to warm the room, so was hard to take a proper shower. Water was hot and fine, but atmosphere really cold. Some rooms without heater were also not really comfortable and a bit cold also.

Plussat: Staff were very welcoming and the location was great with parking right outside which is what I needed this time. Showers were a plenty as long as you don't mind going to the basement for them. All in all a nice stay

Miinukset: They advertise soundproofing but, honestly, if i didn't have ear plugs I would have lost a lot of sleep due to the neighbouring bar chucking bottles out late at night and people playing some game on the square until long after i went to bed, also very loud doors throughout the hostel and just my roommates on the first night woke me up several times even with ear plugs. Definitely loud bangy rooms! Also they specifically say that WiFi works in all areas but it definitely doesn't work on the top floor where a lot of rooms are. It wouldn't bother me but they actually advertise it!! But i stayed an extra night as it was a comfortable bed and it was low season so when my roommates left i ended up with a dorm to myself. The breakfast was good except the coffee, it is what you expect for the price, but the kitchen not brilliantly equipped although theres enough to make a meal with

Plussat: Friendly and helpful staff, spacious bunk beds, clean and comfortable room, fully equipped kitchen, sufficient breakfast and convenient location. Great value!

Miinukset: Only downside is the bathrooms/showers. Could be cleaner and better to have one on the same floor as the room.

Plussat: The staff were so friendly and welcoming to us and our dog

Miinukset: There was nothing we didn't like

Plussat: Hotelli oli aivan kadun vieressä, joten liikenteen melu kuului melkoisesti huoneesemme, samoin kun huoneemme oli juuri vastaanottoa vastapäätä joten muiden asukkaiden äänet kuuluivat selvästi. Pysäköinti paikat ovat kadun varrella jotka olivat ilmaisia. Vuoteet olivat hyvät. Aamiainen oli hyvää ja kahvi erinomaista. Henkilökunnalta saamamme palvelu oli avuliasta ja ystävällistä. Hostelli on kauniisti sisustettu.

Miinukset: Äänieristys vóisi olla parempi.

Plussat: Staff was very nice and helpful, well priced. great location

Plussat: The staff was delightful

Miinukset: Pienet huoneet

Plussat: This hotel has a great location. If you have a vehicle, they have valet parking which is so convenient. The staff were very helpful & the rooftop bar offers great views and the opportunity to mingle with other hotel guests.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Nice hotel next to the center of the city. Big free parking and they take care of your car themselves. Good service, nice rooftop bar with good local beer.

Plussat: It is 5-6 mins from the main walking street.

Miinukset: Had to turn in the room key every time we go out

Plussat: Very convenient location

Miinukset: Rooms should have a minibar or at least 2 bottles of water

Plussat: Super staff, great location, parking.

Miinukset: The coffee machines for breakfast were not good. One ground beans per cup but produced a weak, lukewarm mix, the other was Nescafe. The cups and milk were cold.

Plussat: Clean rooms. Good breakfast. Great location.

Miinukset: Room too small.

Plussat: The staff were super friendly and the rooftop lounge area was great, with a wonderful view!! Too bad the weather wasn't warm enough in the evening to really enjoy it.

Miinukset: The room was entirely too small and the noise from the street was loud. The TV was also very tiny.

Plussat: Helpful and friendly staffs!! They are the best.

Plussat: Wonderful location

Miinukset: It was a bit empty

Plussat: Sijainti, ystävällinen ja avulias henkilökunta. Nähtävyydet kävelymatkan päässä.

Miinukset: Joka aamu sama aamiainen. Huono vuode, olisi pikaisesti päivitettävä.

Plussat: Sijainti on hyvä.

Miinukset: Meluisa, kaikki käytävässä tapahtuva liikkuminen kuuluu huoneisiin, samoin mikäli huone on kadun puolel- la opiskelija ryhmät juhlivat joka yö. Huoneet eivät ole tasalaatuiset, ja esim. luvattu jääkaappi puuttuu osaltilta huoneista. En suosittele huonojalkaisillle.

Plussat: This is a hostel, in a historic building. The breakfast is small, but had all the basics. We had a room with our own bathroom, which was very nice. Sadly due to the covidvirus , Coimbra is empty of university students and tourists. The building is historic. It seems that it use to be a home for mother's and babies.

Miinukset: N/A

Plussat: Beautiful rooms, great breakfast , great location and incredibly nice and helpful staff !

Plussat: The staff is gentle and genuinely tries to help with whatever questions you may have. The place is historical itself and greatly located, just in front of the Old Cathedral. The rooms are simply decorated but well furbished.

Miinukset: Ok breakfast. Don't expect more than the normal american coffee, cheap tea, some buns, the possibility of a toast, some cereal and milk. Ants in the room. Expect to hear blowdriers and other similar sounds even if you book a double room, as the rooms are not as soundproof as you may expect and read about.

Plussat: The history of the place was intriguing. I loved the vintageness and decor. Very warm and welcoming.

Miinukset: The WiFi was poor in the rooms. It was a bit noisy at night.

Plussat: A very historical and authentic place with great breakfast and very friendly staff. Location is perfect to walk around the city. Great stay overall!

Miinukset: Water pressure in the top floor was a bit less than perfect. But not a problem at all.

Plussat: Excellent location, very good breakfast, nice view of the river.

Miinukset: Terrible sound insulation between room and next room bathroom.

Plussat: Structure and fornitures direclty from 30’s/40’s Good breakfast Professional staff

Plussat: Really cool vintage hotel.

Miinukset: The mattresses were so thin, it's like they didn't exist.

Plussat: Tyylikäs rakennus

Miinukset: Rakennus rapistumassa - vanhanaikaiset kraanat

Plussat: Very good buffet breakfast was included

Miinukset: This hotel is very old and sparse but clean. Could use updating current for charging electronic items or for international travellers.

Plussat: It is something your parents would’ve thought really nice 50 years ago. Make it 75 years ago. Although the Art deco Decour appears original it has been well-maintained.

Miinukset: It is a prime candidate for a major redo and have shiny 4 stars. There is a certain “aroma“ that shows it’s age.

Plussat: Sijainti erinomainen. Aamiainen ok.

Miinukset: Hiukan jo aika syönyt paikkaa, jotain voisi uusia.

Plussat: Central location on river yards from station. Balcony overlooking busy road and river and views beyond. Yards from shops, cafes, historical sites. Beautiful lift with bench. Breakfasts really good, and open till 10am. Shame about the constant rain during 5 days in late Feb/early March.

Miinukset: Very old and tired. Only 4 tv channels. No tea or coffee facilities in our room. Furniture a bit saggy in lounge.

Plussat: Beautiful hotel from the Art Deco era.

Plussat: The beds were very uncomfortable.

Miinukset: Rooms were threadbare.

Plussat: Everything was nice..... Large room, very good breakfast, free parking... it looks more like a 4-star hotel. Has a nice view over the city center.

Miinukset: City center is a little bit far for walking. Need a car or taxi... Shower in the bath tube is never a good idea !

Plussat: Quiet location, good parking, very comfortable bed. We were only passing through, so it was perfect for us.

Miinukset: Furniture is a bit worn, no kettle in the room. Rooms are pretty basic.

Plussat: Breakfast, location, cleanliness, parking, grounds and garden around the hotel.

Miinukset: Noise. There is no soundproofing. We had to change the room due to excessive noise from room above us (impact and dragging of furniture on floor).

Miinukset: The hotel has to update the bathrooms.

Plussat: Breakfast was OK, the usual selections,

Miinukset: small irritation, toaster was switched off since it is cold the bread would go through through machine (even at the slowest speed), will come out luke warm, the monet the bread would come out, stuff member will turn off het on the machine and you need to start process all over again. You really need to hug the toaster to get the job done, juices are not fresh, tea/cofee machine temperamental

Plussat: Great views, inexpensive, nice breakfast

Miinukset: No charm, car needed. Shuttle infrequent in October.

Plussat: This hotel has a great location for the city. Has all transportation available to the door. There are many local restaurants nearby. I will recommend this place to anyone looking for a place to stay in Coimbra for any event.

Miinukset: Even though the place was very clean, it need some refurbishing of the floors and the lobby. Since this is the first image of the place, I believe it can be improved.

Plussat: Best location in front of train station and close to city center. Private room and bathroom at a great price! They also hold your baggage after check out if you still have things to see before leaving town which was really nice. There’s also daily 24hr front desk service:)

Miinukset: Bathroom was tiny, but great for the price of privacy. The credit card machine didn’t work and I had to pay with the little cash that I had. I didn’t have any other problems with my card throughout Portugal, so they might want to check on their international credit card services. I was only staying one night so it was ok. Be ready for some stairs, no elevator.

Plussat: Room was clean, AC made it warm in no time. TV worked.

Miinukset: Bathroom was a bit small.

Plussat: Location is great!

Miinukset: They didn’t have even the shower working properly. Too old ; needs improvements everywhere. Not a place to recommend or to be again. Even for 1 night you cam find somewhere else with a short budget.

Plussat: Location

Miinukset: The mattres

Plussat: Great location, close to everything. Very clean, filling breakfast if you want to eat before you explore.

Miinukset: The local neighbors were a little noisy, but they were quiet by bedtime.

Plussat: Location!

Miinukset: Bedplastic

Plussat: Nice space.

Miinukset: Pillow was terribly lumpy.

Plussat: Great breakfast!

Plussat: Centrally located, very nice personnel, parking option close by, pretty modernized bathroom

Miinukset: Quite noisy surroundings sometimes

Plussat: Location was great, and the room was comfortable and clean. All the hosts were incredibly nice and sweet.

Miinukset: Breakfast could've been a bit better.

Plussat: Easy check in. Rooms are basic but for the night we stayed it was perfect.
