Top Mira Hotel Reviews
Herdade Lago Real
10/10 Excellent
"We absolutely loved our stay at Herdade Lago Real! ❤️ The property has everything you need, so we barely felt the need to leave. There was plenty to do, and we especially loved the karaoke night—it was so much fun! Everything was super clean, our room and balcony had beautiful views, and the complimentary breakfast buffet until 11 AM was a huge win. The breakfast was delicious with so many options to choose from. Such a relaxing, fun, and family-friendly place. We would definitely stay here again!"
Hotel Afonso V
8/10 Good
"We stayed at this hotel for three nights whilst visiting family. It was conveniently located and easily walkable into the centre of Aveiro. The room was comfortable and clean, although we didn't use the range of facilities that the hotel offered."
NH Coimbra Dona Inês
10/10 Excellent
"Très bel endroit où rester à coimbra."
Malibu Foz Hotel - La Maison Younan
8/10 Good
"Nice hotel in a great location. Nice staff, parking available, swimming pool works. What was quite annoying was noisy AC, which we had to turn off at night. Hotel staff tried to do something about it, but finally it was still noisy. Otherwise a very good hotel."
Hotel As Américas
10/10 Excellent
"Estaba en una localización bastante cerca del centro, pero sin el bullicio del centro. Nos avisaron de que estaban remodelando el hotel, pero no apreciamos ningún tipo de molestia. Como un inconveniente, comentar que el baño tenía poca luz"
Hotel Astoria
10/10 Excellent
"Where do we start. This was a fabulous hotel. Everything we expected and hoped for. Sonia looked after us from the moment we arrived and we could not have wished for a better host. If you want a modern hotel with square rooms and satellite TV, this is not the place for you. Keeping the style of its initial build 100 years ago makes this place very special from the opulence of the residents lounge, the ship like dining room and the rooms which are old but well cared for. We were fortunate to have a room facing the river with large balcony doors and air conditioning. The breakfast was exceptional. We dropped one star on the amenities only because it would have been nice to have a bar. To be fair there is an honesty bar but its not the same. Deserves all 5 stars overall and we re already looking at dates to return."
Stay Hotel Coimbra Centro
8/10 Good
"."
Hotel Oslo
10/10 Excellent
"Excellent location and knowledgeable staff who were very helpful. Breakfast was excellent."
Melia Ria Hotel & Spa
8/10 Good
"The staff at the hotel desk was great! Room was nice. We selected this hotel because after traveling we wanted a day of relaxation. The property showed a beautiful pool and spa. The person at the spa was not friendly. Also we could not use the pool because you have to reserve it in advance and it was full.. you have to make a reservation to use a pool? Don’t select this hotel if you want to use the pool or spa. Lesson learned."
