Staff were very helpful, including not only ordering us a taxi but also walking us to the meeting point (as the guesthouse is on a pedestrianised road) and waiting with us to check we got it.

Top Coimbra City Centre Hotel Reviews

Hotel Mondego

10/10 Excellent

"Nice location, staff.is helpful and breakfast is plenty"

SOPHIA STUDIOS

10/10 Excellent

"Sofia Studios was great value considering the incredible central location it has in Coimbra. It was exceptionally clean and very easy to check in to. Staff are on hand during the day and are very helpful. Our only criticism is that he bathroom is really small with almost no counter space. As well, it's a lot of stairs to the third floor! Normally that wouldn't be a factor for us - and it was completely as advertised - but my wife sprained her knee earlier in our Portugal trip. For anybody with mobility issues, try to request the first floor (and even then there's two flights of stairs)."

Sapientia Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed at the Junior Suite and the room was large and welcoming with a loft area and beautiful view. The hotel has a lovely outdoor garden setting restaurant, perfect for a glass of wine and a bite to eat after a day of sightseeing. And the location could not be better - a block away from the University Square. And the staff was very friendly and most helpful."

Praxis CBR Boutique Hotel

8/10 Good

"Fabulous river view in an deluxe room (room 6) on floor 2 . Nice modern room with interesting features. If you have an early start, beware that breakfast is from 8.00am, and we had to order a breakfast box, which isn’t ideal; l have fed back that breakfast should start earlier from 6.30am for a continental style. Good location and next to the old town and main street"
