May be we were unlucky. But it is what it is…read more Pros: location. Awesome views from rooms, breakfast and rooftop. Cons: price, dated rooms and not working AC. Breakfast: not too bad. Better than any American hotel breakfast, but not Turkish. AC: if we come when it's 18° C, it might be ok. But when we came, it was 29°C. And AC could only turn on green signal that is on, but it wasn't doing anything. Price: Actual: 165$ per night. Fair: 70 for room + 30 for balcony (actual difference, fine) + 20 breakfast for 2 + 10 for parking - 30 for not working AC = 100$

The staff told us that they couldn't call a technician until the next day. The room did not have operable windows, so we were sweating all night long. We had to cover ourselves in damp towels to try to stay cool. The management staff were polite and feigned sympathy. But when requested, they refused to give us any credit for the pre-paid payments. Question: If you ordered food at a restaurant that was spoiled and they tried to make you pay for it, what would you think? I was FURIOUS !!!

Having decades of travel experience including exposure to thousands of hotel staff I can say the man behind the reception desk at the Hotel Astória is one of the most unwelcoming and unprofessional. My wife and I stopped by to inquire about the hotel and possibly chat about the sights of Coimbra. The hotel exterior and lobby showed promising charm, the man at the desk however indicated that we did not belong in the hotel as the lobby was "private" and if we wished to use the toilet we should "go outside". Why would a hotel like the Hotel Astória employ a person as unskilled and ill-suited? We will not return to theHotel Astória.

It has high ceilings and huge windows that allow natural lighting in. It is beautifully decorated inside with rich wood paneling and painted tiles. What I like most however is how clean the place is.

If your a history nerd like me and love a good luxary hotel then this will be perfect for you. First and foremost the service here is exceptional. From beginning to end the staff was truly great and so helpful. Michellin star resteraunt on site along with a bar for guests to enjoy. The grounds and gardens of this hotel was incredible and the best I've seen at any propery. My wife and I got lost exploring this historic hotel and gardens for two hours exploring, just taking our time enjoying it, WE LOVED IT. We booked a Spa Room in the Spa Wing which is the newer addition to the hotel designed by a very famous Portugesse Archetict. Stunning building, room was very comfortable and nice. The room does need an update, room seems to be suck in the late 2000s/ early 2010s. But still felt very nice, spacious and luxurious. The balcony was our favorite part with a view of the gardens and pool. The pool was awesome, Olympic sized pool. Cabana and pool side chairs are available for free and they have food and drink service which was phenomenal. We had a great lunch by the pool and the girl working there was great and helpful. Overall, this place is just incredible. To sleep where Royals slept once is just the cherry on top for me. If you stay here make sure to read up on the love story Iñes Castro and Pedro I of Portugal. Really this is an incredible place and worth every penny to stay here. Luckily this SLH hotel is now available to Hilton Honors Memebers so I took full advantage and used 80k points for a two night stay here. DONT SLEEP ON THEM, if your in Coimbra Portugal, do your life this favor. You will be so happy you stayed here as I did. Obrigada Quinta Das Lagrimas!

The front desk people were friendly and helpful. We could easily walk to all the main sights such as the University, gardens and many restaurants (although, a lot of the sights were uphill). We were here in February so we didn't experience activities on the river but there seem to be many options in the warmer weather. Breakfast was worth the €6/pp/day, although, it's not as nice as the picture on the website. After spending four days in Lisbon and two days in Coimbra, the Pasteis da Nada's that I ate at breakfast here were what finally overdosed me on them. Delicious but very rich after eating at least one (usually more) for six straight days. I'd definitely consider staying in this hotel again if in Coimbra.
