We love the building is historic but it doesn't means that the hotel as a whole should be in old conditions. This hotel needs urgently un update, smells horrible, was impossible to have a good rest there due to the smells.

This hotel is historic and charming. The staff are professional and friendly as well as helpful. The rooms are comfortable, although they are building a Metro extension right out front, so eventually it'll be noisy!

The building is 100 years old and a bit of a time capsule. The location is fantastic if you arrive by train at Coimbra-A as it's a 3 minute walk away. Lots of good restaurants in the street behind the hotel. The staff were super helpful with ideas and maps -- much better than the official tourism office staff!

I was stunned to learn that there is no Internet in the rooms. The hotel has plenty of old-fashioned charm and should stay that way. But since it accepted electricity, it could also accept Internet in the rooms.

It’s a nostalgic hotel with a lot of antique furniture set in a mood of 1930s. Location is super convenient. We have the river view which is so beautiful. Thr room is spacious and with a big balcony. Staff is friendly and super efficient. They provide a lot of useful tourist information and dining options. Breakfast is sumptuous and delicious too!

A grand old dame of a honey era, if those walls could talk. Must have been something in its time. If you are looking for all the things a modern hotel offers you might want to pass. We really enjoyed the historical features of this art deco property. The staff were simply amazing, so friendly and accommodating. We would stay there again.
