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.

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.
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.

Coimbra is a great city with very interesting historical sites and churches. Interesting shops and restaurants.
the Igreja santo Christo is especially good to visit situated in a lovely square. The adjoining old cafe has a wonderful atmosphere with a performance of FADO (traditional Portuguese music ) every weekday from 6pm

Five-minute walk from Coimbra A train station; online pix meant we knew exactly which building to look for.
This is a charming and old-fashioned hotel that antique-lovers should really enjoy; it's like being on the set of a 1920s or earlier movie, and has an old-fashioned wood-lined elevator, complete with folding bench. We loved the place, but ...
The one perturbing thing was the lack of in-room Wifi, but there are lots of comfortable spaces to connect on the main floor. For a couple of vacation days, though, this was not a big deal.

Coimbra was an unexpected pleasure to visit.
Coimbra was an unexpected pleasure to visit. We had great accommodation in an accessible (by car) area, but removed from the every day bustle. Interesting old town, enjoyable music/fado offerings, good walks along the river and excellent food were all recommended by our helpful and knowledgable host. Had trouble finding parking at first (it's not well signed IMO),
My friend and I are travelling Portugal on the road and we booked the apartment for 1 night stay: we loved everything about the room and the process, from pre check-in to check-out and everything was communicated clearly, without leaving any room for "misunderstanding". Aurélio and Bruno have been very kind and Mariana was super nice. If I am going back to Coimbra (and I know I will) I won't even bother looking for accommodation somewhere else but I would definitely stay with them again. Thank you for the nice experience!
Appartment is located in the beautufull old center of Coimbra, in vicinity there are many cafes and restaurants and it is very easy to reach the University buildings from there. App is big enough, comfortable, clean and very nicely decorated, great view from the small balcony and hidden garden on the back side. I understand the same owner also runs nearby hotel Oslo, so you check in in the hotel and you can also store luggage there if needed. All personel is very kind and helpfull!
The amenities were incredible and the staff was super helpful. I would absolutely recommend this place for a short stay in Coimbra. The location is prime and the overall vibe of the hotel is very clean, neat and contemporary. I wouldn’t call it cheap but I wouldn’t call it expensive either. If it’s within your budget you should definitely try it. Although we stayed only for one night I can absolutely see myself staying for a few more nights next time we come to Coimbra to visit.
The location was perfect and having two bathrooms was a big convenience. The apartment had everything we could possibly need. Ismael, the host was absolutely the best out of all of our Portugal stays. He made sure that everything was satisfactory and checked on us during our stay. Ismael not only picked us up from the bus station upon our arrival, but took us on a tour of Coimbra before taking us to the apartment. He also drove us to the train station for our departure.
It has been out absolute favourite stay in Portugal. The apartment is in the perfect location. you couldn’t get any closer to the university and many of the main sights. The view from the apartment was unbeatable. On top of there was a lovely bottle of green wine and a snack to welcome us. This extra touch made us feel so welcome. I would recommend this apartment to anyone going to Coimbra. We wish we could’ve stayed longer.
We stayed at Hotel Botanico de Coimbra for several days in July. The hotel was well-managed, rooms were very comfortable and air conditioned, complementary wifi worked very well, and the hotel served a good light breakfast. There is a small bodega and cafe next door which made it very nice for drinks and other items. We very much enjoyed the stay and look forward to staying again in the future.
The location is fantastic--just a few step down the cobblestoned hill to the main square and main shopping street of the old town. Near many cafes and restaurants. Also near the old church where the first king of Portugal is buried. These units are being entirely refurbished by the owners in marble and wood. Incredibly clean! The duvet and towels are new and of good quality.
Everything; especially the location. Situated near the old square, we were serenaded with smooth jazz in the morning. We could reach the market, the university, cathedral, and river bridge in easy walks. The hotel staff were very kind, especially helping us with parking and our bags. The roof top terrace above the Hotel Oslo was special too. We would stay there again.
This is is one of the best place we stayed in Portugal. Host make you feel like you are an old friend. Room was big and clean, shower was clean with everything that you can need. Tasty breakfast with friendly stuff. Incredible territory with cutest goats. Parking inside, so you don’t worry about your car, but still not far away from Coimbra. We will definitely stay again!
Great location just across the river from the old city of Coimbra. Several good restaurants & cafes in the same block as the hotel. Easy parking at a public lot (3E/day) a couple of minutes ways. We had a 4th floor room next to kitchen and small patio which was nice for making breakfast. Friendly staff, clean room. Windows opened to get a nice breeze in the room.
The room is luxurious and spacious. The bed the best we've slept on during our 2 weeks travelling around Portugal. The location could not be bettered and the bathroom newly done (previous reviewers have left some negative comments about the bathroom). There is a lift! And Goncalo the perfect host with lots of useful information. Coimbra is an amazing place to visit!
The staff were amazing. They were all extremely friendly in general and really helpful with issues that cropped up during my trip. For instance, I drove from my country to Portugal and I was a bit confused about toll payment as the system is quite different to the one where I live. The guys at reception were extremely patient and helped me sort everything out.
I wish I could rate this higher than 10. The staff goes out of their way to make your stay perfect. We were welcomed with cake and champagne, the rooms are beautiful, clean and comfortable! I would definitely return and recommend it to anyone staying in Coimbra. Even though it is a small hotel the staff makes you feel like a vip staying at a grand hotel.
The location is great and the place is exceptional.
The building is an historical place, and very well renovated. Rooms are modern and very comfortable. The breakfast served in the garden is delicious and the big swimming pool is ideal to chill and relax. finally the staff is very welcoming and friendly. It’s the best hotel we’ve been to in Portugal.
A great boutique hotel and the highlight of our tour of Portugal. Totally exceeded our expectations. Amazingly helpful and friendly staff. Obviously a well respected restaurant (be sure to book a table). Excellent breakfast included. Thoughtfully decorated, clean room with very comfortable bed and balcony. For us the location was fine.
Paula is a fabulous hostess, she couldn't do enough for us. She was very helpful and extremely knowledgeable about Coimbra and the rest of Portugal. The house and our room were lovely and the bed was very comfortable. We thoroughly recommend CoimbraAmeias and hope to return one day for another wonderful stay.
Hotel Tivoli is more like a business hotel than a tourist hotel, but our room was quite large and comfortable. It is about a 10-15 minute walk to the center of Coimbra, and is located approximately mid-way between the Coimbra A and Coimbra B train stations. There's a good restaurant attached to the hotel.
Everything was outstanding. The location is on the edge of the university campus and near to good cafes and the center. Breakfast was the best I had in Portugal - homemade yogurts and breads, fresh fruit and fresh-squeezed orange juice.
The hotel is located in the center of old Coimbra with many nice restaurants and shops around. All landmarks are within walking distance. Perfect opportunity to feel authentic Portugal.
