Spent one night here on my drive up to Porto from Lisbon. Easy check in. Free parking in garage across the street (not many places have free parking, so this was a plus). They have a bar upstairs with an outside veranda, views of Coimbra proper. The room was comfortable. Nothing too fancy. The bathroom is a bit small. The shower fits one person okay enough (I’m 5’6”, 145 lbs, if that gives you some perspective). Just be aware some showers are small and it is not a tub (in my room at least). But all I needed for one night. They have a breakfast (that was included in my stay) upstairs in the morning. They had a good selection of meats and eggs and breads and yogurt and cereal. Overall a decent place to stay.

The location is a little bit down market for what is an otherwise excellent hotel. Clean and well appointed with extremely helpful and friendly people on reception. The parking is a 2 minute walk away and is in an underground car park with lots of pillars and tight corners, so take it steady.|There are a couple of decent places to eat nearby and its not far to walk to the pedestrianised area etc. We caught an Uber up to the university from here and walked back down via the various sights. To walk up in the heat would be impossible for a couple hitting their seventies and those back streets are very steep.|The breakfast was okay but let down by the synthetic fruit juice.

The rooms were nice with large bathrooms and a great view. It was in a good location, walkable to everything, but not on the hill. It also has garage parking included, which was a convenient walk across the street. There was a rooftop with good views and bar service. The espresso martinis were very delicious. The breakfast was very good, with warm, tasty eggs, lots of baked good options.

Little hotel by the road side. Parking is free but it’s opposite building. Can park the car in front of hotel to unload luggage first. Staff speaks English and friendly. Room has no free water and fridge. Bed is comfortable n firm enough. The location is close to some attractions. However the room facing road is very noisy even when staff told me is not. Motorcycle n people walking past rounding loudly can be heard even late at night. We had bad night sleep. A room facing inwards would be better!

Front desk staff speak good English and are friendly, making us feel very welcome from the moment we arrived. They also gave great recommendations for lunch and dinner at ACapella, which we really enjoyed. The highlight of the stay was the rooftop, which offers a wonderful night view, especially overlooking the university. Noteworthy details include free parking, which is very convenient for those driving. Overall, a very pleasant experience.

Where can I eat near Hotel Oslo?

You are in the heart of Coimbra's old town, so dining options are all around. The hotel itself has a restaurant, café, snack bar, and a rooftop bar with panoramic views. For local flavors, try the traditional tasca Zé Manel dos Ossos, the well-regarded Refeitro, or the recently opened Restaurante Sete. For a sweet treat, stop by Pastelaria Penta for arrufadas or Pastelaria Briosa for Pastéis de Santa Clara. A short walk also leads to restaurants by the Mondego River and creative spots like Praxis, a restaurant and brewery.

What is the area around Hotel Oslo like?

The hotel sits on the main avenue of Coimbra's historic center, right by the Mondego River and close to the university. The old town's narrow streets and squares are filled with traditional shops, cafés, and restaurants. You can walk to the Barbican Gate in 3 minutes, the Monastery of the Holy Cross in 4, and the Old Cathedral in 5. The area is lively and walkable, with the riverbank and Parque da Cidade Manuel Braga just an 8-minute stroll away. It's a great spot to soak up the city's atmosphere and explore on foot.

How do I get to Hotel Oslo from the airport or main train station?

From Coimbra-B train station, take the free bus to the city centre; the stop at Largo das Ameias is about 50 meters from the hotel. A taxi or ride-hailing service is a direct option. From Lisbon or Porto airports, a pre-booked shared or private transfer via Coimbra Shuttle brings you to the hotel. The hotel is less than 100 meters from Coimbra-A station, so once you are in the centre, it is a very short walk.

What's there to do near Hotel Oslo in the evening?

In the evening, you can enjoy the hotel's own panoramic bar and rooftop with views over the UNESCO zone, plus its restaurant, café, and snack bar. A short walk takes you to the riverside Mondego Green Park, about 4 minutes away, and the historic center's squares like Praça do Comércio, where you can find traditional cafés and restaurants. For a cultural evening, the Old Cathedral of Coimbra is a 5-minute walk, and the Monastery of the Holy Cross is 4 minutes away. You can also explore the lively streets of the Baixa district, with its shops and eateries, all within easy walking distance.

Is Hotel Oslo a good base for exploring Coimbra?

Yes, Hotel Oslo is a great base for exploring Coimbra on foot. You can walk to the Barbican Gate in 3 minutes, the Monastery of the Holy Cross in 4 minutes, and the Old Cathedral in 5 minutes. The New Cathedral is a 7-minute walk, while the Science Museum and Parque da Cidade Manuel Braga are each 8 minutes away. Portugal dos Pequenitos is a 10-minute walk, and the Monastery of Santa Clara-a-Nova is 11 minutes away. For farther sights like the University of Coimbra, a short stroll or a quick taxi ride works well.
