Stay Hotel Coimbra Centro
No serious issues but definitely a case of you get what you pay for. I stayed three nights and each night it sounded like people in rooms above and beside me were either smashing furniture or throwing suitcases across the room. This wasn’t the fault of the hotel and possibly a rare occurrence.

NH Coimbra Dona Inês
Great hotel, parking entrance and exit are a bit stressful. Breakfast is good, not sure if there was a possibility to have omelets. I hated the fact that there were no outlets on one side of bed. Gym is quite basic

ibis Coimbra Centro
Although this is a very 'corporate' hotel, we really enjoyed our stay. Very clean, breakfast was good and the bar prices were good value. The staff were all very helpful, especially the young barman in the evenings.
