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.

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),
The hotel is located right in the heart of Coimbra which is a very charming and beautiful city. The hotel has easy access to the train station and other transportations. It is also walk minutes from bars, restaurants and some of the main attractions that the city has to offer. The property is managed by family so they look to every little detail and make sure we are welcome and comfortable. The breakfast was delicious! I stayed for 5 days in this hotel and I loved it! I felt I was in home!
Everything and everyone. This little guest house is a real gem. It is located in Coimbra, city of Portugal not yet fully discovered by tourists. To me it is the real Portugal, with honest hospitality. The guesthouse is well decorated, visibly the owners put their heart in it.
We also enjoyed little shop with fruit and the most needed stuff and next to it a bakery just outside the guesthouse. If we are again in Coimbra, we will for sure stay again in Vila Julieta.
The apartment in Coimbra was spacious and well-equipped, with a great balcony overlooking the city. The cathedral is not to be missed, and the university, which sits atop the city (very high), is the oldest in Portugal, one of the oldest in the world. The university library and the chapel of Sao Miguel are all well worth seeing, advise to purchase tickets (and times) before arriving. The botanical garden is a pleasant place to spend some time relaxing.
Quinta das Lagrimas is a hotel bursting with charm and character. There is much to explore, see and do. The library and church are a "must see", as are the gardens. The location and views from the grounds are very good. The staff were fantastic, helpful and genuinely enthusiastic about the hotel and it's fascinating history. We enjoyed a excellent meal in the lovely and friendly restaurant with many extras and taster dishes added in by the staff.
There is probably no better location from which to explore Coimbra's major sites: the University, the Tower, the Library, the Palace. The hotel is also within easy walking distance of a slew of good restaurants. But you need to like to walk. The folks who run the hotel do everything in their power to make your stay enjoyable. I had my best night's sleep in Portugal in Coimbra. And the shower was the best I've seen anywhere -- I want one for home.
The owner and staff here were some of the friendliest folks we met during our ten days in Portugal. They're super welcoming and give you a concise rundown of what to see in Coimbra (including a map and walking instructions). There's a wonderful little courtyard to enjoy a little wine and snack. As others have mentioned, the breakfast was a phenomenal spread with fresh fruits, cheeses, pastries, meats, coffee, tea and fresh-squeezed juice.
I have stayed at Ibis Coimbra 3 times in the past month. In my my last I asked for a room with a vie wand the staff that checked me in said she is checking me in a room with view. When I checked in, my room was in 2nd floor where the front wall of hotel was almost completely blocking the view. The hotel was not crowded and I am wondering why I was not given a room on th e3rd floor where the wall was not blocking the view.
It's my best experience in Portugal! The only hotel I saw having conditioning and heating, so we were able to have warm room at night. They have perfect facilities - pool and gym and sauna (none of it was busy in the evening, was pleasure to visit!)
Breakfast variety is 10* points too! It includes fruits:)
Location is just minutes walk from the university and museums.
Parking is big enough:)
We were travelling through Spain and Portugal and wanted to stop somewhere that would allow us to chill, re-charge the batteries, enjoy a good meal and not have to pay an extortionate price. This hotel met every expectation for us.
Great facilities, friendly service and a fantastic meal in the restaurant.
Really easy to find just a few kilometres from the motorway.
Location is very central in the Coimbra old town: handy to everything. Quiet at night. We also liked the "roof garden".
The reception staff (at Hotel Oslo) and the young staff on-site at Entre Ruas (for cleaning and replacement of supplies) were extremely helpful. Overall, the apartment was spacious for three people, with two bedrooms and a big lounge/dining space.
Loved this small hotel. Clean beautiful room. Lovely linens. Efficient and friendly staff. Excellent dinner in their garden restaurant. One of our favorite meals traveling through Portugal. Had the tuna and the fish. Lobby is so cool. Loved the vibe.
Breakfast buffet was delicious. Fruit,eggs breads, cheeses, meats. Good coffee options. Yum.
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.
The hotel is located in the center of downtown with exceptional staff, very comfortable (though some rooms are small), parking included and has a rooftop bar area with lovely views. Rodrigo was especially helpful with recommendations of what to see and do in Coimbra.
Is not the first time I stay at Tivoli. Is a well located and organized hotel. The team are so efficient and so kind. It seems that everything is possible when you ask something to them. They are professional and this gives me a lot of proud of Coimbra and Portugal.
This hotel is an authentic experience! The concept is quite new for hotels in Portugal, so you can expect some surprises!
The room is very comfy, and the bathroom is super cool. Breakfast has the most delicious croissants I have ever eaten.
staff was very helpful especially Paulo, Marta at reception and Marta in the restaurant. The hotel and gardens were beautiful but the breakfast was not as big or as good as other hotels we stayed at in Portugal
Perfect Flats, located in the oldtown, very nice equipped and decorated! Checkin is organized by Hotel Oslo (50 m away) with very friendly stuff! Parking for 10 €. Recommended place!
This hotel was my favorite in Portugal. The staff are just amazing, helpful, caring, dedicated to making our stay enjoyable. Breakfast was awesome, with a great selection.
