Schist Villages Hotels

"The hotel was very clean. It is a few feet away from the free shuttle bus to and from the train station , Coimbra-1. We were pleasantly surprised to see the hotel right there when we exited the bus. We took the train to arrive and to depart and the shuttle makes it very easy, it has frequent trips. We enjoyed walking around, the hotel has an excellent location. Solar do Bacalhau is an excellent restaurant, right at the corner, it was one of our best dinners in Portugal. Fangas Maior is also highly recommended. We enjoyed a Fado show one evening and it was different from the Fado show/dinner we had in Lisbon. The university is wonderful, the tour needs to be booked ahead of time. The library is just unbelievable. "

"Thank you"

"This is a lovely and eclectic hotel. The staff could not have been more friendly or helpful. The breakfast and afternoon tea were fine dining quality. Communication by the hotel about local events that may disrupt our stay was communicated far in advance. We had an absolutely lovely stay!"

"Great location high on the hill just a short walk to the college & the famous library. Breakfast brought to your room in baskets every morning was a nice treat."

"Great location at a wonderful price. We have stayed several times and will continue making this our base when visiting Coimbra."

"Beautiful property, right next to the University, kind and attentive staff"
