Repeated drawbacks include minimal bathroom privacy due to glass or open layouts. Parking and car access can be tricky, especially during nearby roadworks, and a few guests noted the small lobby and occasional gaps at reception. Expect a unique, central boutique stay with standout style and thoughtful extras.

The room was quiet, clean and pleasantly decorated. It was on the 4th floor at the back of the building. The location was easy to find in the heart of the attractions. The breakfast was exceptional with lots of choices. From afternoon to midnight there are pastries and beverages for free in the lounge.

The decor is absolutely amazing with terrific views of the large square, either from room, 5th floor breakfast area or the penthouse deck. Complimentary snacks, coffee, tea were available at all hours. A very comfortable stay, within easy walking to everything. Only downside was our refrigerator was not working in our room. And parking can be difficult to be close by.

Fantastic hotel in a great location. Everyone was so nice. Breakfast was good. The room was really special. The only problem is parking. If you are driving, there is a really tight parking garage not too far away, but it is not ideal. But I have only good things to say about the actual hotel and staff.

The decoration is unique, interesting and pretty. Room is clean. One bed in my room，but it's big enough to sleep two people. Just step out of the front door is a shopping street. It's also close to the university.

We enjoyed our stay at CBR boutique hotel. The room was beautifully decorated on a book theme, even in the toilet and shower stall. Kudos to the cleaning staff as everywhere was spotless, especially with all the nooks and crannys present in the stone carved books. The bed and pillows were very comfortable and the room very quiet at night, especially considering we were overlooking the suare. Marc on reception was very helpful and courteous. Unloading luggage was a challenge as we missed the small area we could park the car to unload, with construction going on in the street. So we carried on to the free carpark, directly across the bridge from the hotel, about a 5 minute walk. We were not crazy about the open bathroom with glass doors on the toilet. May feel awkward if sharing with friends. The hotel is in a great location, close to all areas of interest and we would definitely recommend it for a stay in Coimbra.

We did and it was simple!)

Rooms
Book-themed rooms are stylish and comfortable, many with quiet interiors and city or river views. Recurring downsides are glass or open bathroom layouts that reduce privacy, limited storage in some rooms, and occasionally restricted temperature control.

The staff was very friendly and answered many question about the area, and provided helpful recommendations. The room was surprisingly quiet for being in the heart of the bustling tourist area. Walked everywhere, and had ample options if we had chosen to use them. Only negatives were that our refrigerator did not work- we never told staff, so do not fault them at all- and that the toilet lacks privacy.

Nicely renovated property with pretty good breakfast. The main downside is that their thermostat is centrally controlled (to turn on for heat or for cooling), and when we went the evenings were turned on for heat. We prefer it cooler to sleep and it was only possible to open the windows, which meant a lot of noise given the hotel’s central location. The hotel is recommended otherwise, so if you’re not a light or particular sleeper it’s a good choice in Coimbra.

Great breakfast. Beautiful, quirky hotel, in the center of all the action, though also quite comfortably quiet.) Staff helpful and friendly. Great breakfast. The only criticism (and this would have been a deal-breaker had we known ahead of time) is COMPLETE lack of bathroom privacy. All glass walls and doors!

Clean room but weird setup. It's "book" themed so there are stone "books" all over the walls of the shower, bathroom, etc. Even the floor had a stone "rug" and the large vanity (which had very little space for toiletries) was made of stone. Strangely enough, both the shower stall and the toilet stall (facing each other) had glass doors so it would be awkward for two people to use both at the same time. It was also awkward to use the bathroom stall with the glass door. The roof was nice with snacks and drinks but the staff was sparse so forget about extra service. Checking in was odd too. The lobby is tiny and not always staffed. You have to ring a bell outside to get in or if the door is open (not often) you must go in a glass door and ring a bell. Bed was nice. Towels were good. View was nice into the square.

O hotel é bem localizado tanto para turismo quanto para a Universidade, além de muito estiloso. A equipe é gentil. Reservamos quarto com vista e valeu a pena poder ver a praça e o rio, além da movimentação! O quarto é muito bonito e limpo. A decoração de biblioteca feita em livros é bonita e divertida! Para quem gosta, é quase uma brincadeira procurar títulos e autores. O banheiro e o quarto são espaçosos. Vários detalhes de decoração muito elegantes, além de comodidades: cortina automática, por exemplo. O café é bom, mas, para mim, poderia ter mais frutas e capuccino. Do que menos gostei foram dos horários de check in e check out (15h e 11h), que não beneficiam o hóspede.

Really cool little hotel (16 room) in the center on Coimbra. Rooms are all very well decorated. Breakfast in good quality. In the middle of most of the sights and restaurants - the university is at the top of the hill which is a “challenging” walk. Only issue was the reception - not always somebody there for checkin and door is locked.

We greatly enjoyed our stay with CBR Boutique Hotel. The location is very central, right next to the river and main street with plenty of shops and restaurants. The themed rooms are stylish and clean. The breakfast is simple but good and definitely enough to fill you up. What impressed me the most was the staff's hospitality and helpfulness, as they looked out for me and helped me recover my valuables. I am deeply grateful to them for saving my trip! Will definitely stay with them if I visit Coimbra again.

We greatly enjoyed our stay with CBR Boutique Hotel. The location is very central, right next to the river and main street with plenty of shops and restaurants. The themed rooms are stylish and clean. The breakfast is simple but good and definitely enough to fill you up. What impressed me the most was the staff's hospitality and helpfulness, as they looked out for me and helped me recover my valuables. I am deeply grateful to them for saving my trip! Will definitely stay with them if I visit Coimbra again.

Great place to stay in Coimbra. Staff were very helpful and friendly. The property is fantastic with terrific views, too. There were a couple aggressive panhandlers (beggars) near the property, but we still rate this hotel 5 stars, so we loved it.

Dining
Breakfast earns strong feedback, often served on the rooftop, and many appreciate complimentary afternoon tea, pastries and drinks. A few found the breakfast selection modest for the price.

It was an unique and romantic place to stay. The staff was friendly and eager to help with anything. This is one of our favourite places so far. Bathroom was spacious and had a luxury-feel to it. Breakfast was a bit compact, but thats understandable due to the size of the hotel. Location was great, right next to local shops & restaurants.

The hotel was great and a bit different with the book themed bathrooms. The breakfast was good and the ability to get drinks and cakes at other times was a nice and useful touch. The location was very central, albeit there were roadworks outside at the time of our visit.

The room was quiet, clean and pleasantly decorated. It was on the 4th floor at the back of the building. The location was easy to find in the heart of the attractions. The breakfast was exceptional with lots of choices. From afternoon to midnight there are pastries and beverages for free in the lounge.

This is a lovely and eclectic hotel. The staff could not have been more friendly or helpful. The breakfast and afternoon tea were fine dining quality. Communication by the hotel about local events that may disrupt our stay was communicated far in advance. We had an absolutely lovely stay!

It was nothing like the pictures. The location is central but very difficult to reach because cars can't reach the front door.

Fabulous river view in an deluxe room (room 6) on floor 2 . Nice modern room with interesting features. If you have an early start, beware that breakfast is from 8.00am, and we had to order a breakfast box, which isn’t ideal; l have fed back that breakfast should start earlier from 6.30am for a continental style. Good location and next to the old town and main street
