What guests think

Guests describe Palacio da Lousa Boutique Hotel as a beautifully restored retreat in a quiet mountain town near Coimbra, notable for welcoming staff, well-sized rooms, plentiful breakfast, and relaxing spa and pool areas that make unwinding easy.

Several reviewers highlight spa strengths but cite two issues: outdoor access in winter can be uncomfortable, and the indoor pool was closed for maintenance during one stay without prior notice. Dining feedback is largely positive—from varied, locally sourced options to standout steaks and excellent breakfasts—yet a few mention diluted orange juice, limited menu variety, or a disappointing restaurant experience. Room feedback notes generous space, some balconies and views, alongside occasional hallway noise or less appealing ground-level outlooks; travellers also appreciate the scenic setting and proximity to schist villages. Best suited to a tranquil rural break.

What a beautiful and historic hotel. The staff was friendly and helpful. Our rooms were beautiful and the indoor pool/spa was an added and relaxing surprise! Our breakfast was off the charts delicious We loved our one night stay at the Octant Lousã and highly recommend

Hotel fantástico, muito bonito. Foi pena a piscina interior fechada para manutenção, pois um dos nossos critérios era o spa, sobretudo nesta altura do ano de inverno. Deviam arranjar forma de avisar os clientes com reservas efetuadas. De qualquer das formas o hotel é muito bom!

Fomos no inverno e para chegar ao SPA o trajeto é feito por fora do hotel, sair da piscina ou da sauna com o corpo quente e depois sair no tempo gelado é terrivel, como sugestão um caminho direto por dentro do hotel x spa. Demais tudo ok

Nice stay during a mountain bike trip for a prime mountain experience. Quiet village. Beautiful hotel. Staff were top notch…the Portuguese aren’t known for customer service…these folks are fantastic! The room faced onto a street level view which wasn’t great; although surprisingly quiet. The spa was wonderful. We are huge fans of water therapy, moving from the sauna to cold plunge to warming tubs, etc. They delivered! And the food!! Very good. Breakfast was excellent with stunning views of the mountains. Highly recommend this palace!

The staff went out of their way to make our stay amazing - our only regret was that we couldn’t stay another night! The restaurant served some of the best food we have ever eaten. The steak that my wife got was SO good that she asked to speak to the chef, just to tell him it was the best steak she had EVER had in her life! We NEVER do that!

The little touches like the free bottomless of wine on arrival, the teddy bear gifts for our two little children was really very much appreciated. Breakfast was great too with a wide selection, and the biscuits on check out came in handy for the car journey home.
