Lovely room and stay.

The room was very charming with lots of character which on the other hand means accepting some quirks such as workarounds ..."…"

    Lovely accommodation option in Coimbra…
    5 / 5
    I was in Coimbra for a conference and chose this place because it was walkable to the conference venue. It is about a 5-minute walk from the botanical gardens and another 5-10 minutes uphill to the main university site. The hotel is very well kept and comfortable, with decent in-room amenities. Given that it's advertised as having a kitchenette, I think that a kettle, mugs, and tea bags should be added into the rooms' small fridge, microwave, sink, and limited dishes/glasses/cutlery. The breakfast was really great, far beyond what I would expect at a continental breakfast, with hard boiled eggs, yogurts, meats and cheeses, a selection of breaks and spreads, fresh fruit, tomatoes and olives, cereals, juices, and a choice of espresso drinks, American coffee, and teas. Staff were so friendly and helpful! There are a few local eating options within a 10-minute walk (downhill to Praca da Republica, uphill back). There is no lift and, regardless of which floor you stay on, there are stairs. Located in an older building, rooms and corridors in this hotel have limited sound-proofing. Aside from any late-night noise from hotel guests, the students who give Coimbra so much energy also boost its late-night noise, which can go into the morning. I found ear plugs necessary on some nights! …
