Awesome boutique hotel next to the University of Coimbra. The decor followed the theme of literature and knowledge. The courtyard was great. Nice restaurant and breakfast buffet. Only note is that the rooms have 3 steps up from the sitting area to the bed, so not for the mobility impaired. Rooms are spacious, have a kitchenette in the room, and awesome views of the city.

This boutique hotel is a gem! Very cute. The staff is very helpful and friendly. We liked having dining option right there - we had lunch on the lovely patio outside. The hotel was quiet, tucked in on a side road. Very convenient location to everything, including walking to University of Coimbra. Rooms were clean and modern, kind of bare bones, minimalism, but fine.

The location of the hotel is perfect. Right next to Biblioteca Joanina! Talk about a short walk to a national monument! Great restaurants are close by including the restaurant at the hotel. It was easy to walk the whole city and see and do everything we had on our list. The rooftop deck had amazing views too. The patio outside the restaurant was also very comfortable and inviting. They even have a pet turtle in a water feature in the patio area.

Beautiful boutique hotel with excellent service and a fantastic location—very close to everything. The only downside is that parking is limited. Also, be aware that the food at the hotel restaurant is extremely salty. However, that seems to be a common theme throughout Portugal, except in the Douro Valley region for some reason.
