Hotel is in a great location. Sites to see, plenty of dining options all within walking distance. We visited Coimbra as a one day stop, on our drive from Porto on the way to Lisbon, and we were able to see all the important sites, as well as sample the good restaurants for lunch and dinner. The person at the reception, Andre, helped us with directions from hotel and recommendations on nearby great restaurants. Parking across the hotel was very convenient, albeit a little tight in space. All in all, a great stay for us.
