The staff were friendly and helpful. We really enjoyed the outdoor pool and the bar area. The breakfast was really nice and they even offered a tray with gluten-free options to my partner with outstanding and tasty products. However, it does not seem like anything else change since I was last there about 8 or 9 years ago. The rooms looked dated, the door didn't really offer soundproofing so you could hear everything in the hallway and other doors banging loudly, the bed was not comfortable whatsoever and the tables and chairs in the balcony were not clean (they had bird poop all over them). Moreover and even though we put the DnD sign at the door, the hotel staff entered the room without checking with us and while we were away: one to leave a plate with apples (not sure what that was about but ok), and another one to leave a slice of cake and wine, which I admit it was nice but I would rather have someone checking with me before walking into the room. Plus, because we were out the whole afternoon and evening for my birthday, that slice of cake must have been left out for so long it was pretty dry and sad. You will need a cap to use the indoor pool, which they don't tell you about it until you reach the spa staff, who look to charge you 4€ for each cap, so we didn't use it. I think this hotel is good enough to stay for a couple nights but not a whole week like we did. Will certainly look for other options around the area next time.

Too expensive for what it is (standard rooms)
BEWARE, the difference between rooms is huge. I booked a standard room with a "city view". It had no ceiling light in the bedroom area with only weak side lights. Since there are no additional sockets to plug your laptop or device you need to unplug one of the bedside tables, which means you are completely in the dark. There is no desk because the tiny desk (without chair) is where the TV stands. The room itself is small but the bathroom is very nice and large. I had no heating at night because all their air conditioning systems are blocked to a standard set up, but at night it can be chilly, while in the day it's hot. The bed linen was very good but the actual mattress is not so comfortable. Portugal tends to use extremely hard old-fashioned mattresses, but if you are a foreigner, you may not find it comfortable. No memory foam mattress here. Breakfast was good enough. I am vegan so my options were limited, but at least here they had baked beans and cucumbers with olive oil, and that's enough for me. Some other "luxury" Portuguese hotels have chia seeds and soy/coconut milk as healthier options but here they do not. The room was a corner one so it had a large balcony, which I liked, but no outside chair and no outside table. I was on the 3rd floor so I could see a bit of "city" but mainly you have a car park at the bottom and a new building in front. But, if you have a room on this side on the lower floors, you will have a horrible view.
Bedside lights only with no additional sockets for your devices. Also, the bedroom section as you can see is very small. The only ceiling lights are at the entrance but not on the bed area, which makes the bedroom area very dark.
As you can see the only socket is for the bedside light. You need to bring your own multiplug. I asked at reception and they had none to give me.

The room was lovely and the breakfasts were absolute fantastic! We were able to walk along the water to downtown easily and I could run along the water into the park and all around Coimbra. The only hiccup we experienced was that they decided to clean both pools at the same time on Monday morning (when our daughter had been looking forward to finally spending the day at the pool, after our “boring” touring all weekend), but it looked like someone else got upset about that and alerted a manager, because the cleaning promptly stopped and the kids were able to play! (Which we appreciated very much!). Cleaning of the pool after hours sounds like a good idea to me, in general.

Deceiving as the hotel itself looks nice. The rooms are filthy. Smells of stale cigarette smoke and keep your shoes on as the carpet looks like it’s been trapping filth since the 70’s. The shower doesn’t drain properly and splashes water all over the bathroom floor. The beds are uncomfortable and worn. Using the pool requires you to purchase a swimming cap and they’re still playing pandemic forcing you to book a 45min time slot. I’d strongly advise against anyone booking here. Advertised as a 4 star, but more like a 2 star at best.
