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.

We were lucky enough to arrive during the last week of term for the university students, which made the town lively and interesting. The tour of the university , particularly the library, was fascinating. It was also lovely to walk through the old town, eat pastries, listen to music and absorb the atmosphere. Sitting in the Botanic gardens with a book in the afternoon sunshine was an opportunity to relax in otherwise busy days.

Coimbra is a delightful town to visit.
Coimbra is a delightful town to visit. The town is architecturally pleasing, with clean, safe, streets, and a refreshing lack of graffiti. There is a good choice of hotels and restaurants, and those that we patronized were of good quality, with helpful staff, all of whom, in our experience spoke good English. Recommended

Our accommodation had the perfect location; we walked everywhere. The nearby restaurants were serving great food. Our street had 2 nice restaurants that were frequented by locals, and the prices were very reasonable compared to the more touristy places.

Coimbra is a great city to visit and use as base to explore other locations in central Portugal. Make sure you wear comfy shoes, the cobbles streets and walking is often up steep hills. The library is worth viewing at the university, but make sure you book in advance or get there early, as they have limited tickets and time slots. The parks are beautiful along the river and worth taking the time to visit. If adventuring out, highly recommend Obidos and the Buddha Eden garden, as well as Aveiro and Costa Nova.

Coimbra has a lot to offer travelers. Centro (old part of town) is very lovely and has a lot to see. Many small interesting roads and pathways to walk around and see beautiful buildings, historical churchs, shops, cafes...Restaurants are reasonably priced and there is a variety of different cuisines to accommodate everyone. We stayed one night, but could have easily stayed another night.PierretteCanada - 10Scored 10

- From Rp 2,341,717 per night9.1Scored 9.1SuperbRated superb· 3,598 reviewsIt is a whimsical hotel, designed like a palazzo in Venice. Staff is great, very helpful. Breakfast is delivered to your room. View from our room was magnificent, overlooking part of the city from a bird view point. Location is close by to Old University, which is a must see in Coimbra, on the top of the old town . Driving there is a lot of fun, particularly for north Americans. Narrow, steep, cobbled streets. Don't come with a big SUV, because you will have hard time to find a parking spot.KirilCanada
- From Rp 1,491,761 per night9.6Scored 9.6ExceptionalRated exceptional· 490 reviewsEverything and everyone. This little guest house is a real gem. It is located in Coimbra, city of Portugal not yet fully discovered by tourists. To me it is the real Portugal, with honest hospitality. The guesthouse is well decorated, visibly the owners put their heart in it. We also enjoyed little shop with fruit and the most needed stuff and next to it a bakery just outside the guesthouse. If we are again in Coimbra, we will for sure stay again in Vila Julieta.
MagdaGermany - From Rp 2,768,430 per night8.3Scored 8.3Very goodRated very good· 4,469 reviewsWe were received with a warm and friendly greeting by the staff and offered an upgrade at a very reasonable price difference. When I compared the room, the size was more comfortable and the view was amazing. The hotel offers a very nice breakfast and at night it has a light menu with drinks. Their rooftop area is amazing! Perfect for couples and I highly recommend it. I heard through the grapevine, soon there will be a new Oslo hotel not too far!
Brenda LUnited States - From Rp 2,341,717 per night8.7Scored 8.7FabulousRated fabulous· 80 reviewsThe location was beautiful and central. The apartment was beautiful and a good layout. We stayed at a few apartments in Portugal that had the same sort of sleeping arrangements/ small kitchen and living space and this was our favorite. It was a little lively at night since it was on the Main Street but wasn’t too loud that our kids couldn’t fall asleep at their normal time. We would definitely recommend staying here and visiting Coimbra.AlexanderUnited States
- From Rp 1,405,030 per night9.1Scored 9.1SuperbRated superb· 1,119 reviewsPretty nice hotel centrally located. Walking distance to the most important sites to visit in Coimbra. I did like the fact that you can have access to the building and room by door code. Ricardo is very hospitable, please follow up his instructions to walk around the city, due to the hills in the city. The hotel is very clean, modern, comfortable. I do recommend Sete Restaurant, close to the hotel. Good Portuguese food.
