Hotels with Swim-up Rooms in Coimbra District

I recently had a wonderful experience at this property during our vacation, and I can't thank the site manager, Katia, enough for her thoughtful efforts to make our stay special. She upgraded our room and adorned it with lovely candles and rose petals upon our arrival, which truly set the mood for our celebration. Katia even took the time to show me several rooms so I could choose the one I preferred, which I greatly appreciated. The room itself was impeccably clean, and I felt comfortable and relaxed throughout our stay. The building is very old, and each room is updated with modern amenities and still has the old building charm. If you enjoy unique stays, I wholeheartedly recommend this property to anyone looking for a memorable getaway. The only minor drawback was the noise from the surrounding college town, especially late at night. Since the building is historic, the windows aren't soundproof, which can be a bit disruptive. However, this was a small price to pay for such a fantastic experience overall. I would definitely return!

It really exceeded my expectations. I chose this hotel due to high rating but it does not deserve a 9, it easily deserves a 10! Everyday, they deliver our breakfast in a cute basket. Breakfast is always too much for the two of us as they provide a lot from eggs to bread, milk, juice, etc. I think the amount of breakfast is good for 3-4 people not just two. They clean the room spotless and all staff were very nice and caring. One time, we asked if we could have the breakfast we were not able to eat that morning and they quickly responded and sent the food to us! The room was big and nice. I wish the staffs will be rewarded as they largely contribute on the great experience of the guests in this hotel. The location was great as it is situated at the top of the hill, our room had a very beautiful view of Coimbra. Thank you so much for giving us such a great experience!

Don’t be fooled by appearances. It may be a little over the top, but this is a great hotel. It is what I call a fun place to stay and the location is perfect. It is comfortable and pristine clean. The room is roomy. Breakfast is delivered in a basket to your room every morning at your chosen time. There is bread, scrambled eggs, yogurt, fruit, Ham and cheese, coffee, and orange juice, plus butter and jam. The staff are 10+. Always helpful. And trust me you are going to love Coimbra. Go to a Fado performance. You can spend most of a day at the University. Don’t miss the Roman Museum. We found a restaurant we liked so much we ate there 3 days in a row. It is Tapas nas Costas Bistro. This is seriously good food. We were trying to eat everything on the menu. About a 10 minute walk from the hotel.

This was a truly unique experience. The design of the rooms at Solar Antigo is quite unusual and very romantic, making it an appealing choice for couples on their romantic getaways. Each room features a jacuzzi right in the middle, adding to the intimate atmosphere. Upon check-in, the friendly staff greets you with a welcome gift: a glass of champagne and a slice of cake. Located in the historical center of Coimbra, on a hilltop, the property offers stunning views of the city. However, navigating the area may be challenging for individuals with disabilities, as the streets consist of paved hills. Nonetheless, if you are a history enthusiast, an artist, or simply in love, this place is ideal for you. Breakfast is served directly in your room in the morning, and each accommodation is well-equipped with everything you may need for your stay.

Everything was what we expected for our couple's escape. The bed was astonishingly comfortable and with a classy touch on it. The view of the bedroom was great, you could see the whole city centre. The bathroom and the hot tub were very clean and spacious. The breakfast was delicious and it could be described as a "melange" of flavours available. From cereal, to fruits and amazing breads available, you could even get your own chocolate milk with the materials they gave you. Also to not forget, that we were received with champagne and homemade cake made by the hotel staff. The staff members were very helpful and welcoming! To summarize 5 out of 5 stars in our humble opinion, can't wait to be back!

How can you describe a perfect place like *Quinta Das Levadas Dos Mouros Country House*?... - A real piece of paradise! This is the most beautiful place we have ever stayed in, with the most charming landlady - Dear Raquel. A spectacular mansion in its beauty, elegant, warm and pampering, every item in it is tastefully chosen. The large space, the comfortable beds, the light and the harmony... As well as the small details that make all the difference (In each bedroom there is a deck of cards with Inspirational Phrases for example). The estate has a pool to enjoy on hot days and hiking trails around it that lead to wonderful nature. We accepted Raquel's offer and ordered dinner as well. The lovely Natalia prepared a meal for us that we enjoyed every bite of. Paired with good wine from the region - we had a perfect evening. In the morning, the hearty Ceilia prepared a particularly pampering breakfast for us, which started another perfect day for us. We plan to come back here for sure, this time for 3-4 nights. In our opinion, the place is worth a special trip to the area and certainly a great trip to the slate villages. Thank you so much, dear Raquel, for a delightful and extraordinary experience, the Aharoni family

This is a place we will definitely return to! it is ideal for those who are looking for a little silence. You don’t have to go anywhere and spend the whole day there. we were with two children, the rooms have board games, you can go kayaking, or be in the pool all day!

The owner Raquel and especially Sandra at the house were extremely friendly and helpful! The house is very new and well equipped. Breakfast is delicious! Garden is still being planted, but already very nice. We didn't use the pool, but looks great! Location is very good for visiting Piódâo.

Beautiful location comfortable & very clean. Staff & owner Raquel extremely pleasant & helpful.Pool excellent.

The staff was perfect, Natalia's food was extraordinary (we weren't expecting to eat one of the best risottos of our life). The rooms are big, comfy and with amazing views. The property has enough space for a walk, the calm to read a book in peace and a river for a small dive on the mountains cold water! We will be back!

I really liked the peace and tranquility of the sleepy little village Alem, coupled with this beautiful villa with a good sized swimming pool which are both very well maintained by Roy and Diane, made this an ideal week in the sun for me. The villa itself is an immaculate property which is very clean and nice and bright during the day with all the natural sunlight flooding in, and by night it feels there is a light switch on every flat surface which makes it strolling down to the pool for a late night swim or exiting the property very safe. The two river beaches I visited, within a twenty minute drive were excellent whether you want to lay on a beach or stroll along the river itself were great days out and every time I returned from said days out, the pool was ready to dip into, thank you again the invisible man. Overall this was a relaxing week in the very picturesque area of Coimbra, thanks again guys. Yours most rechargeabled Scotty. X This is not a negative in any way and maybe I just missed them but I can't remember a usb port in any of the bedrooms. This is just a thought but it would really enhance the place if we could charge our ever needed mobile devices through the night. Thanks again and love you lots Scotty the Scotsman xx

The whole experience was great. Diane (and Roy) is a really nice host. You could always ask them for something and they helped us out, but they are very discrete as well! Beautiful view at the very nice swimming pool and especially from the living level. A Beautiful area and you will experience a lot of privacy. A car is recommended but we used the local taxi driver, who was very nice. Thanks Diane and Roy for everything!

This was our 2nd stay at Vivenda Pirilampo, and we love it. Our hosts, Diane and Roy couldn't be more helpful and kind despite being totally discreet . The villa is comfortable and spotlessly clean. The patios and pool area are outstanding with fabulous views. There is plenty to see in the area. We just love it and will definitely be back.

Everything. The hosts, the venue, the views, the facilities, the quality, the pool, the area, value for money. NOTHING to dislike!! If you can find better, then please tell me, on second thoughts don't bother, we wouldn't want to go anywhere else. We have absolutely fallen in love with Vivenda Pirilampo.

The comfortable bed, huge terrace with stunning views, great pool and delightful owners.

Flot hotel men svært at komme ind - vi var blevet ringet op ( sms) om hvor når vi kom og havde ikke set det- indtjekning fra kl 15 og vi var der kl 16 men det lykkedes- når I skriver gratis velkomst drink er det så vand?

We really enjoyed our stay here. Hotel was comfortable and staff were helpful and cheerful. We opted for morning breakfast ... highly recommend. It was delicious and lots of choices.

Un hotel, bonito, limpio, silencioso. El personal muy agradable.

Una sorpresa este hotel. Muy agradable y la piscina estupenda.

A secluded and quiet place to relax in, away from the busy city life. We stayed at the Nogueira house. The houses have all the amenities needed for a short or long stay. A beautiful job has been done in recovering the old stone houses and modernizing it, keeping its original charm and architecture, and a mix of countryside themed and quirky decor. A generous breakfast is served daily, including delicious fresh bread and cake that are left in a cloth bag outside your door (like in the “old days”). There’s also basic staples like fruit, salt, and (locally produced and available to buy at the reception) olive oil. And newly picked flowers everyday! The pool area is inviting and the salt water pool is cleaned daily. We were the only ones there for the most part. The restaurant is conveniently located within the premises. The food quality is superior and the staff was amazing in welcoming and guiding us through the menu and wine pairing. The staff went out of their way to make us fell welcomed, sharing tips of places to visit in the surrounding area, and was always on call for anything we needed. It was the second time at Villa Pedra and will most definitely return!

Sehr schöne Anlage mit unterschiedlichen Wohnungen. Zu jeder Wohnung gehört eine Terrasse und ein Garten. Wir hatten zwar nur eine kleine Terrasse, aber das war i. O. Wir haben dafür mehr den Garten des Pools genutzt, welcher sehr schön und gepflegt ist. Wir haben mit Frühstück gebucht, was sehr gut war. Ein MUSS ist auf jeden Fall das eigene Restaurant, wo es ein sehr gutes Menü gab. Das Servicepersonal ist wirklich sehr nett, egal ob Gärtner, Reinigungspersonal, Restaurantmitarbeiter und insbesondere der Empfang, welcher sich wirklich um alles kümmert. Ein schöner Ort zum entspannen.

A beautiful residence with care for details. Amazing rooms in every possible way. The view is fantastic and the pool area is really nice!

This was the most relaxing stay! We were deep in the countryside in our own stone village with great amenities and fresh bread, fruit, cheese, jam and honey for our kitchen every day. No restaurant on site or in walking distance but it was fun and challenging diving around exploring the region on back roads to get to the each town with its castle and church.

Villas con todas las comodidades a un precio ajustado por lo que ofrecen. El ambiente y el estilo de todo el alojamiento es único y hacen de la estancia una experiencia excepcional. Decoración y trato exquisito. Muy, muy recomendable para disfrutar de unos días de relax.

The spa was nice. The gotel itself could use a refresh and the air conditioner was not wprking in the whole hotel, but we made it work. Breakfast was nice

Very very good experience. Lovely staff, very quite destination, good meal and excelent spa. Large rooms and good matterace.

The hotel is very modern. The rooms are very comfortable, the food is good.

The staff is amazing. They do everything to help us solving any issue.

Lovely clean and spacious hotel. Staff very friendly rooms all sound proof.

My husband and I had the most unexpected pleasure stumbling onto this hotel for our recent stay in Coimbra. Starting with our check in experience the girls were amazing. So helpful and friendly. They exude customer service. The room was clean and pleasant. Everything in the hotel is fresh and maintained. Awesome shower and the bed was comfortable. Rooftop bar with a view and excellent service as well. Added bonus was breakfast. Nicely presented and delicious. Then our bolt back to the train station $10. NOPE they told us there was a free shuttle bus that stops just in front of the hotel that runs every 10 mins. Last but not least, at 5:30 am the front desk helped me to print out my train tickets. No easy task, and we didn't need it after all. Can't say enough about this wonderful experience! Codos to the Management team, these girls all need a RAISE!

Absolutley spotless. Very welcoming hotel near the Mondego River. Area is under heavy construction right now, which is always difficult to maneuver around. Good location close to shopping, dining, and sights. Two employees stood out: Tatiana was at the front desk when we checked in. She was so gracious and informative. She was also there when we checked out and helped us with pointers on train tickets, etc. She is a gem. Gustavo was at the rooftop bar, which had a spectacular view of the high city. The roof of the college easily visible to the right. He made recommendations on the bar menu and was willing to chat before he got busy. He is also a gem. I would return here... Hopefully when the local construction is completed.

Very nice hotel with a lovely breakfast included. We liked the location and the bed was the best we had on our Portugal trip. We showed up very early and left out bags . This process was made easy and efficient by the wonderful young woman at the front desk, Tatiana. She made us feel very welcome and went above and beyond to help us plan our day in Coimbra. She is exceptional at her job. Thanks Tatiana. It was a pleasure to meet you! The other staff we came across were also excellent, including the very efficient woman in charge of the breakfast room. A clean, comfortable and modern hotel in a convenient area , a short Uber drive from train station.

This property was a very pleasant surprise and highly recommend if stopping in town for a short visit. The staff were fantastic and the location really is hard to beat if your goal is to be in the heart of the city. We arrived by train at Coimbra B and could have connected to the Coimbra A station which is only steps away but a short Uber ride (5 euro) saved us time and effort. The rooms were clean and comfortable and the rooftop bar provided a great view of the city and totally worth it once the sun goes down.

A wonderful hotel with an elegant boutique feel. The double room we were given was on the first floor. Room was spotless with free tea and coffee (this doesn’t seem to be a thing I many hotels in Portugal.) The walk in shower was awesome!!! Rooftop bar was a joy. Small and cozy vibes but wonderful views overlooking the university and life in the city. Breakfast was top notch, lots of choices and well stocked!!! The bakery items were delicious. A wonderful overnight stay in a very family friendly little city! Would definitely recommend.

Beautiful setting with big pool and grounds and lots of pool chairs. Hotel is also outstanding with lots of places to sit including a cigar room and kids room. Staff were very friendly and helpful especially with our bicycles. Restaurant is Italian with authentic food and very nice staff. Only complaint is very bad wifi which is worse than unusable, it is frustrating going on and off continuously.

Nice place to stay for weekends. Well decorated cozy room (we booked suite just because usual room was not available). Free privet parking. Nice atmosphere around the swimming pool. Palms. Bar. Nice music. Place to seat. Place for sunbathing. Chilling mood. Very tasty food we ordered near swimming pool (pizza, sweet doce batata frita, tiramisu etc.) But please book the table in the restaurant for dinner ahead.

Very cool ‘beach house’ styled hotel, that was modern clean and well maintained. Lots of lovely touches in the common areas making it feel fresh and welcoming. Large pool area that was well tended to by staff providing drinks. Free onsite parking. An easy 10 minute walk to the beach. Be well aware when booking with children to very clearly state their ages on the booking. We booked for two adults and two children (using their correct ages) however upon checkin we were charged an additional €50 per child on top of the room rate for them to share a pull out sofa. Not sure if the issue lies with booking.com or the hotel itself but this definitely put a dampener on the stay. That aside very nice stay in a spacious and well laid out room, in a hotel with great facilities.

Loved our stay here!!!! Great bedrooms and bathrooms. quality fixtures and fittings, lovely pool and bar area, restaurant good and reasonably priced, little cigar snug gave it a nice twist. They've really invested in quality in this property when refurbished. The breakfast is as good as any we've had in 5 star deluxe hotels in city centre locations.... freshly squeezed oj, figs, dates, nespresso coffee, lovely breads - we really enjoyed this and the staff are really friendly, customer focused and helpful on the desk and in the restaurant. Interestingly the owner has his own wine and cigar brand - both really reasonably priced in the restaurant - available at what would be UK retail prices.

The hotel is Awsome! The breakfast, staff, location, pool, restaurant, very clean and spacious rooms. And very fare rate. We stayed here for 3 days and fantastic relaxing time. Highly recommend the hotel and since we live in Lisbon, we are going to come back to this hotel. I hope they keep the same standard and rate. The hotel rate is exact to what is worth. It is not expensive. It is fare rate. Hope they don’t raise the price since they are receiving a lot of good recommendations.

This hotel was absolutely perfect, exactly what we needed for a relaxing couple of days during our Porto to Faro road trip. Our large corner room had panoramic views over the lake, the spa facilities included pool, sauna and hammam and were most welcome. The restaurant made excellent Portuguese cuisine and genuine cocktails. The external pool was immaculately clean and the staff both efficient and friendly.

We liked everything. Never been to this area or hotel before, so it was a stab in the dark. We stayed 4 nights Room had a super views of the Mondego river. Clean and up to date. Very quiet location. Meals were excellent. Head waiter couldn't do enough for us. Not only with the food but information about where to visit. Loved the pool. Being a small hotel, most of the time we had it to ourselves. Room has a fridge and safe. River trips were available but we didn't take one. You can go 2ks either way from the hotel and there isn't another building, just the views.

The location of the hotel right on the river, boasting amazing views all around. The large room Windows and the balcony overlooking the river. Staff was genuinely nice and warm, and attentive, quick to respond. Everyday we had a complimentary large bottle of water in the room. The pool is great to catch some sun, swim and relax. The restaurant is very good. One of the evenings it was warm enough, so we had di ner outside, overlooking the river. It's priceless.

The view on the river was absolutely amazing, and the swimming pool just perfect. We loved the amazing breakfast and the dinner. The staff welcomed us very kindly. Exactly what we needed after a long road driving.

The hotel is great, the room was amazingly spacious with stunning views over the river, excellent swimming pool, there was also a Turkish bath, sauna and hot tub! The restaurant was excellent.

The breakfast at this hotel was outstanding, lots of variety and very high level of quality in everything. This was a historic building which had a new wing. We were placed in the new wing and so the room was very modern and very comfortable if perhaps less old world charming than I imagine the rooms in the old building perhaps were. There is a pool in the sort of basement spa which was very attractive and heated to normal pool temp. There is a sauna. There is a cold bath for those who like that. No jacuzzi. There is a very nice parking lot behind the hotel. We ate dinner at the hotel also and it was delicious. The staff was pleasant and accomodating in answering all our questions and the day we left actually gave us free water and snacks. The location was perfect as we could walk to the Schist village of Talasnal from the hotel.

Wow, wow and wow. This is something else. We stayed in the old part and absolutely loved it. The area is fabulous too with lots to see and do. Spa and indoor pool facilities are great. The outdoor pool and shade in the garden are stunning. Breakfast and all meals truly superb

Lovely characterful hotel, really luxurious. The staff were really attentive and the food was lovely. We felt thoroughly pampered. The pool was a little cool but ok once you were in and the view from the pool and terrace was great. The food was delicious although not cheap.

Beautiful ancient town house. Gorgeous breakfast and diner. Three drawing rooms. (Electrical) bike rent. Beautiful outdoor swimming pool and also spa with heated swimming pool (nice in november). Beautiful hikes.

It was our second time in this hotel and we would definitely be back more. It’s very good for adults and kids, the outdoor pool is amazing, the indoor pool is also nice, the staff is really nice and the surroundings are beautiful. Breakfast is a delight!

This hotel is in a great location. We went for the Festa do Queijo and it was easy to walk to all of the events and literally just about everywhere in the town. It was only about a 10-15 minute walk from the bus station to the hotel so we never needed to call a taxi. The hotel also has a very nice hot tub and swimming pool which we used as well. It sure was nice to soak in the hot tub after a long day of walking, standing and tasting all of the local goodies!

Ideal stay, old building with a modern edge. Nice, clean room with kitchenette. Great location near hospital with plenty of restaurants and bars nearby. Indoor swimming pool and spa leading onto outdoor sunbathing area was a bonus. Basic breakfast. Great price with free parking. Staff, Louisa and team very helpful.

It is a nice place to stay: small but very well decorated, with everything that is needed. Good breakfast. Didn’t like the cold water in the covered swimming pool.

Liked the friendly and polite staff, has really nice view and clean. Pool is amazing too , Break fast is really fresh and good !

Really clean, very pretty building, the staff are super helpful and very welcoming. Breakfast really good. Pool lovely.

We loved our stay in this hotel. We stayed off season so there were not many people. We were pleased to find the hotel fulfilled our request of a double bed instead of twin beds that we'd booked. The bed was super comfy. The heater worked really well and we had a big TV. The view to the town and outdoor pool was nice. The bathroom was small but clean. We loved the breakfast which was varied and we felt really full. The main reason we had booked this hotel was the spa. And it didn't disappoint. The sauna is fantastic and the pool is really pleasant if you don't get many people. On both nights we managed to get the pool to ourselves. The temperature was 29-30 degrees. The jacuzzi was alright too. The spa area itself is rather small so I imagine it can get crowded if many people are staying. But we were lucky. Can't comment on the gym as we didn't use it. The staff were all very smiley and accommodating. There is a private car park so we didn't have to park in the street. Overall, we loved it there.

- The staff was very nice and helpful. - Bed was comfortable - Good pool - the bar has a very good ambience and has an outside table area looking to the outside pool. - I liked the our dinner at the hotel restaurant. - We were there for just one night, and for us Luna Hotel was exactly what we were looking for.

This hotel was very clean and modern. The rooms were generous but not large - absolutely sufficient for two people for a couple of days. We were happy that the pool was open, but woud have beenhappier ifit had been heated even a little bit. All of the staff we encountered were friendly and helpful. The included breakfast was very good and quite extensive, with enough options for picky eaters. We enjoyed our stay and would gladly stay again.

Staff friendly and attentive pool and surrounding areas lovely room's clean and attend every day food standard high All in all great service and a wonderful stay will definitely return 👍

Superior quality of the room, mattress, pillows, furniture and decoration Personal terrace at our 3rd floor room Excellent quality breakfast, with decent coffee Interior swimming pool is small, but with sauna

The staff was the best!!! They were always friendly, helpful and made us feel at home especially having such a long stay. Breakfast was very good with lots of options. Our room was refreshed everyday along with new towels when needed. We enjoyed using the gym, paddle courts and pool area (when it wasn’t raining!). We loved getting to know the town of Maiorca and the close proximity to our son and daughter-in-law’s home. We liked that Maiorca is so close to the coast and the Quinta was a good location for taking day trips from there. We’ll be back!

The team and the hotel are simply fantastic. Very comfortable and cosy with a home feeling. The atmosphere of a familly home with swimming pool, tennis court, nive living area, terraces and green spaces. Breakfast and food is of great quality. The team is super friendly and helpful which makes it the ideal places for quality time.

Spotlessly clean & comfy stay Amazing stay. Pool lovely, beds comfy, showers great. Quirky decor & setting, we loved it. Staff very helpful & professional. Rural area, with small village to walk around. The hotel offers spa facilities, we didn’t use but had we had more time…

Great rural location, amazing facilities, lovely pool, sauna and amazing staff. Friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Excellent quality food especially dinner. Perfect for a relaxing stay or as a base to do more strenuous activities

Such friendly staff, great pool and good gym, beautiful property, delicious food, soooo pleasant !

Comfortable hotel with exceptionally well maintained grounds. Clean, spacious rooms and extremely attentive staff. Surprisingly the hotel restaurant and bar are the best value for money ever. I highly recommend meals at this hotel. Indoor swimming pool is rather modest and if you're looking for a place to relax, the pool will probably not be the best place for this. Weekends are very popular with families and their children so expect the pool to be rather (too) noisy. Visited in March so cannot assess the likewise small outdoor pool. Nonetheless, the impeccable laws and stream that runs through the property give this design hotel a countryside atmosphere. Will definitely return.

The Hotel is located in front of a river with a waterfall that you can see from the garden. The outdoor pool is inserted in a natural environment which make it perfect for relaxation. Good breakfast. The staff was super.

It’s a great place in nature to stay and relax. The rooms are very cosy and with a nice design. Staff is super friendly. The included SPA circuit is very nice, the outdoor pool is cosy, in a nice environment. Excellent breakfast.

Been here twice, far enough to be quiet, near enough to have some nice trips on the local area. Big green areas, kids animations, good pools (interior and exterior).

Perfect outdoor pool, nice, helpful and friendly staff.

The hotel and grounds are lovely. Nice pool with bathroom and shower, outdoor cafe, and lounge area, play areas, tennis and raquetball courts. Pool towels and raquets are available for check out at the front desk. Good bed, larger than normal tv and very spacious room and bathroom with tub. Flowering trees, well maintained lawns, hedges, fruit trees and grape vines.

We had an amazing stay at Palácio São Silvestre – everything was absolutely perfect. The building itself is stunning, full of history and charm, but at the same time very comfortable and modern. The rooms were spotless, the beds super cozy, and the staff incredibly friendly and helpful. The vibe of the place is just fantastic – peaceful, elegant, and unique. You really feel like you’re staying in a historical palace, but with all the modern touches you need (including excellent Wi-Fi!). The pool and spa area were a highlight, and the entire property is beautifully maintained. Honestly, we loved everything.

The Room was very spacious, the Pool was very beautiful, the staff was very kind And the Food in the restaurant was deliceus.

A beautiful restful and luxurious resort. The pool was great

We had an excellent stay in a comfortable room, assisted by super friendly staff. I loved the pool - not heated in November but lovely nonetheless. The hotel is exceptionally clean and welcoming. Just one comment, intended to be seen as helpful advice rather than criticism: I am coeliac, so need gluten free food. I had warned the hotel well in advance and was advised that there would always be gluten free options at breakfast. That turned out to be taste free sliced white bread and slightly soggy cake - the cheapest possible provision. Whenever I asked the (very friendly!) wait staff at the buffet whether any item was gluten free, the answer was "No" - possibly because they feared contamination. Seeing the wonderful food provided for everybody else, I felt a bit miffed. After the first day I went to the supermarket round the corner and subsequently brought my own bread into breakfast. Something for the management to think about.

Wonderful hotel, fabulous facilities, nice pool, friendly helpful staff, on a nice river walk, just a short hike to the old town.

Nice large room. Very friendly staff, wonderful breakfast buffet. Parking available. Lovely outdoor pool.

Provides all the standard comforts of a large hotel chain. Appreciated the underground parking (€13 p/n/), although the exit is steep. Didn't have a chance to try the free pool or spa services.

Large rooms with super comfortable beds. Deluxe breakfast buffet. Nice staff. The pool is what drew us to this hotel and it met our expectations.

We stayed there with our 4 yr old daughter. There was an indoor pool , a Jacuzzi and a kid's room which made it very exciting for our daughter. The front desk staff was helpful and kind. The park near the property provided us with a great morning activity , not just for our daughter as it was a "petting farm/mini zoo" type of area but it was also a great experience for us. We especially enjoyed the friendly atmosphere everywhere and we felt happy to be staying at a place where they have a philosophy that every human being has something to offer. Many of the staff in the biological park are individuals with disabilities that are hired so that they can feel integrated in society and contribute in some way that also makes them feel useful and feel like they too have something to give!

We really Loved it. Perfect for a night or 2 if you are passing nearby. The service we got from the receptionist and the dinner chef was more than expected, especially the out-of-menu dishes they made for our kids. Really appreciate the effort done for us. Room is exactly needed size with comfortable beds and balcony with a view. Outdoor and indoor pools and , lovely spa. Thank you for a wonderful short stay. wish we could have stayed another night

Nice quieter hotel. Modern and clean. Not too big. Stayed for 4 nights. We stayed in September and temperature was still in late 20,s. Hotel was fantastic, but only disappointment was the fact that the shared outside municipal poole shut for season on 16 September and there was not any information anywhere that said this would or could happen.

The breakfast moment was very rich and with several different options; and I especially enjoyed the indoor pool and the gymnasium. To finish, the staff was attentive and caring for everyone's needs. Excellent surprise!

Very unique hotel, very nice view with mountain and the zoological park. Lot of recreation sport (outside and inside pool, soccer, basketball, tennis

It was a short one night stay at Amibium but nice stay. First of all lobby area is very hood huge well maintained. Hete you can find nooks also on tables. Food and breakfast restaurant at mimus one floor. Here also huge place to entertain many guests. Rooms nice and well maintained. Best thing I like is bed that is big and also quite high. So are bathrooms nice and pleasant. Enjoyed buffet dinner and breakfast as well. Spread is tasty and varied. Overall a very satisfying experience.

I had a 2 night stay at this wonderful hotel. The room was very good and very reasonably priced. Breakfast was very suitable with array of good quality products. Most of all, I think the staff were very helpful and friendly and nothing was too much trouble for them. I travel a lot on business, and have done so for many years, and I can say this is probably the hotel with the friendliest staff I've come across. Thank you for a great stay.

Ligging is handig want vanuit het hotel loop je vooral naar beneden langs alle bezienswaardigheden in Coimbra, de staf is zeer vriendelijk en behulpzaam, bv. kregen tips hoe het beste te lopen en telefoonnummer van taxi mee om weer terug te komen. Gegeten in bar van hotel, menukaart met ruime keuze en gerechten waren smaakvol en creatief. Parkeerplaats en garage aanwezig, ontbijt prima. Dit hotel is een aanrader.

The breakfast was OK, if warm rather than hot. Overall, a good choice of foods. Nice fruit juice. Staff very helpful. The dinner was excellent. So was the free cake. The gin and tonics in the bar were also outstanding. The bat staff were very good.

Only stayed one night in the area. Got an upgrade to a nice suite. Very spacious and comfy room. Friendly people at counter and bar.

Location is superb. Very close to the Conimbriga site, the most extensive Roman remains in Portugal. Parking at the front of the hotel. Spacious lobby and very helpful staff. Our room was spacious and clean, with all the facilities you'd expect from a high-class hotel. The indoor pool area and sauna, etc, was brilliant, although the floor did get slippery. Did not try the outside pools in January!! Food was very good (choice and quality) without being exceptional. The staff in all areas of the hotel were exceptionally friendly and efficient. Maybe I got a good deal, but I considered our 3 night stay to be superb value for money. We will definitely be going back.

Maybe I got a good deal, but I considered our 3 night stay to be superb value for money. We will definitely be going back.

Beautiful hotel with great and attentive staff. They were super helpful and you could tell they really care. The property is so beautiful and unique. As a family of 4, we stayed in two connected rooms, it was clean and spacious. There was a problem with the AC upon check-in, so we were given another room and weren’t charged for that night until it was fixed. Breakfast is very nice, we also had lunch in the restaurant and it was really good. Outdoor pool is calm and beautiful, indoor pool and Jacuzzi are also nice, great little gym and very clean shared facilities. Free parking for guests.

Beautiful property. Expansive garden and pools (indoor and outdoor). Easy parking at no cost. Our room faced the large front lawn and pool. We saw a beautiful sunset, as the property sits at an elevation. At night we kept the window/door open with a quiet a peaceful atmosphere. The value was exceptional. Breakfast was good also, though not exceptional.

Spacious room overlooking the garden and pool, comfortable bed. Excellent, friendly and professional service in the restaurant and bar from Angela and Bista. Lovely clean pool and spa facilities (sauna and steam room). Great food—much better than we expected for some reason.
