Your guide to the best luxury hotels in Coimbra
Quinta das Lágrimas Coimbra · Santa ClaraFor this guide we have gathered the best hotels in Coimbra: two 5-star hotels, from 130 euros a night.At no extra cost: booking through suitespot costs the same as booking direct with the hotel – the benefits come on top, free of charge.
Two luxury hotels in Coimbra – and how to choose
The two luxury hotels in Coimbra cost 130 € and 145 € a night – 15 euros apart.
Tivoli Coimbra · Baixa CitadinaAt the Tivoli Coimbra the suitespot benefits apply from the first night, at the Quinta das Lágrimas Coimbra from two nights.
And the choice is decided by the category, not the hotel.
Our travel advisors’ insider tip
At the top the two are practically identical. The largest category at the Quinta das Lágrimas Coimbra measures 55 square metres, the one at the Tivoli Coimbra 54. One square metre of difference – nobody notices that.
At the bottom they lie far apart. The entry at the Quinta das Lágrimas Coimbra starts at 15 square metres, the one at the Tivoli Coimbra at 30. That is double.
In practice that means: book the top category and you can skip the question of which hotel and decide on other grounds. Book the entry category and the hotel is a very concrete decision about the size of your room.
Our advice: give us the category, not just the hotel. At 15 euros of price difference the cut is the more important figure here.
Where to stay in Coimbra: Baixa Citadina or Santa Clara
The two best hotels in Coimbra stand on different sides of the city.
In the Baixa Citadina, the lower town, stands the Tivoli Coimbra from 130 € with five categories, one of them a suite. The entry there starts at 30 square metres. Our recommendation for anyone who wants to stay in the middle of the city and have space already in the entry room.
In Santa Clara stands the Quinta das Lágrimas Coimbra from 145 € with seven categories and the longer ladder – from 15 to 55 square metres. Our recommendation for anyone booking one of the large categories on purpose.
Our travel advisors know the routes between the two addresses and work them out for your particular occasion.
12 categories: the best hotels in Coimbra from the inside
Together the best hotels in Coimbra carry twelve categories.
At the Quinta das Lágrimas Coimbra the ladder runs from 15 through 22, 26, 30 and 40 up to 55 square metres – it is the wider of the two.
At the Tivoli Coimbra it starts at 30 and runs through 33 and 44 to 54. The list is shorter, but it begins higher up.
Tell us the square metre figure you do not want to go below – in Coimbra that one figure answers almost the whole question.
What a night at a luxury hotel in Coimbra costs
A night at a 5-star hotel in Coimbra costs 130 € or 145 €.
| Luxury hotel | From | suitespot benefits from |
|---|---|---|
| Tivoli Coimbra | 130 € | 1st night |
| Quinta das Lágrimas Coimbra | 145 € | 2 nights |
How long to stay: two nights. The university on the hill and the Joanina library are seen in a morning, but the way up and down again is steep enough that you will not want to walk it twice on the same day.
At the Tivoli Coimbra the suitespot benefits apply from the first night, at the Quinta das Lágrimas Coimbra from two nights.
When it is at its best: in spring, when the students are there and the city keeps its own rhythm. Our recommendation for a first visit.
Autumn is quieter and dry, and the light stands low over the Mondego. Our recommendation for anyone who prefers it calmer.
And whatever the date: you get the suitespot benefits in the quietest week of the year exactly as in the busiest.
