Hotel Astória
Rooms From: £45
In the heart of the historical city of Coimbra, the Hotel Astória is in a prime position overlooking the Mondego River. This classic hotel is renowned for its elegant comfort, refined European service and its classic feel.
Located in the centre of this university city, the Hotel Astória is within easy reach of many of the city’s top attractions including the university and it’s unique Baroque library, the Machado de Castro Museum and the downtown area known as the ‘Baixa’ – a warren of narrow, cobbled streets full of shops, cafés and churches.
The hotel’s famous Portuguese restaurant ‘L’Amphitryon’ is renowned in the town for its traditional specialities and fine wines, a true gourmet dining experience.
The Astória dates back to 1926, and as Coimbra’s first hotel is still considered to be one of the city’s architectural symbols. The hotel maintains much of its old world charm today.
