Top Museu da Ciência Hotel Reviews

Vila Gale Coimbra Hotel

8/10 Good

"The location was good for getting to the city center; restaurants, shopping and sightseeing. Hotel buffets and Alacarte food was very good! My stay was good at the hotel, felt safe and relaxed"

Sapientia Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The staff were very pleasant and helpful. Lovely place to stay."

ibis Coimbra Centro

10/10 Excellent

"Best shower i ever experienced in Europe."

Hotel Oslo

10/10 Excellent

"Ideal location at the foot of the old city. Car park one minute away. Nice breakfast. The bar is a bit expensive though."

Hotel Astoria

10/10 Excellent

"The location was excellent. The balcony offered a beautiful view directly over the river, which was definitely a highlight of the stay. The soundproofing could be a little better, but overall it was a lovely place to stay."

Praxis CBR Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Such a lovely surprise. We didn't know much about it other than friends had stayed there. We had a river view room which was great. The breakfast was delicious and there was also an afternoon snack. Hate to leave."

SOPHIA STUDIOS

8/10 Good

"Great location. Room is very modern with a full kitchen. Comfortable firm mattress. Many restaurants and shopping just steps away on the flatter areas near the river. Bus stop right around the corner that goes to the train station in 10 minutes. Very safe area. Staff is extremely helpful and friendly. In the flat part of the city so no hills to climb to get to the property (much of the city is hilly). Daily housekeeping if desired. Bank with ATM right on the corner. Lots of hot water and the most water pressure we’ve ever had at a hotel. Ask for a room away from the noise of the street (but largest rooms face the street). Not enough electrical outlets for lamps and charging devices you bring. No elevator. Uber drivers said they could not drive down the street to pick us up so we never figured out the best place to catch Uber near the property. Apparently only buses and service vehicles allowed on the hotel street. Police station right around the corner. Police presence almost always monitoring the vehicle traffic at the corner"

Quinta Das Lagrimas

10/10 Excellent

"What a beautiful hotel and gardens. Set away from the noisy city in a quiet area. Dinner was fabulous and worthy of a Michelin star"

Solar Antigo Luxury Coimbra

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed in a 17th century building and the room was really cool. There’s a big round style jetted tub in the room. That was also really nice after a long day of walking. My favorite part was breakfast brought to our room in a big basket."
