Friendly, helpful staff, great location, eclectic rooms and nice breakfast. Welcome drink on arrival was a nice surprise. Parking was very easy either on the street or outside the hotel.

Only our second time staying but already booked for new years! We needed a place for me to recover and such an excellent choice. From our warmest of welcomes - mini pastel and glorious fruit juice. And the our relaxing and generous room B403. Joel the restaurant manager is a delight and made us so very very welcome. Very courteous but mischievous also in such a perfect match of service and kindness with fun. Eddy the quiet one but misses nothing and great service too. Dinner was delicious and so lovely to enjoy the outdoor space. Breakfast buffet perfect to our tastes and served by the very attentive Miguel and Vittoria. Bruno helped us with a couple of issues in our bedroom - so helpful and thoughtful. The hospitality and attention to detail is 5 star but the staff make this place very special. See you in December.

Located in the historical town of Coimbra, this hotel has convenient (although limited) free parking on the main road. The Staff was extremely kind. We were greeted with some refreshments upon our arrival. A really nice gesture after a long road trip. Every room is themed after a writer, we had books in our room, a leaflet with a bedtime story and complimentary water… and the bed time chocolate. Our room was spotless, spacious and very nicely decorated with amazing river views. Breakfast, served on wooden tables, had a great variety of sweet and savory. Everything was delicious. The entire hotel is decorated like a home, so every corner makes you feel at home!

The hotel is perfectly located next to the University and famous Joanina Library. The National Museum Machado de Castro is only a 7min walk away. The hotel sits right on top of the town so the views from the rooftop are amazing. Getting downtown to visit the many restaurants and other historic sites is an 8min walk through lovely narrow streets. If you have mobility issues you may want to take a taxi downtown, taxis here work on a meter and are reasonably priced. I enjoyed the walking very much. The hotel is lovely; rooms are large and airy with modern fittings and very clean. On arrival I was given a welcome port and Portuguese tart and each night at 6pm there is a happy hour where you can try their own wine. The meal I had in their restaurant sitting outside in their beautiful courtyard was absolutely delicious and the staff are attentive and friendly. I would stay here again.

1st of all most of the staff are super friendly & engage in explaining the property, the area the food & are extremely service orientated. I have to say however there was one person on the early breakfast that was not up to the standard of the rest and let's leave it there perhaps that person was having a bad week. The location is an 8 minute walk from our office & downtown Coimbra & the steep walk back keeps you fit. The property is very artistic & modern & the food for the size of the hotel is also very good , as is the house wine & coffee.

We really enjoyed our stay at Sapientia. The stuff was super nice, great food and as we travelled with our little kids we really appreciated the openening hours of the restaurant and the possibilty of having a very early breakfast. We had a very nice family suite. The furnishing was unique and with a lot of nice details (such as a short notice with the tea). Our boys also enjoyed the little turtle in the garden. In summer the terrace and the roof top terrace surely are awesome

Breakfast was wonderful, the location of the hotel was great. The restaurant staff were personable and helpful. We had dinner in the 1st night and it was delicious. FYI you need a reservation so if you are coming in late be sure to book dinner ahead.

Beautifully appointed hotel with a natural wood/stone decor and high attention to detail. Stunning rooftop views of Coimbra. Nice touches aplenty such as the free wine-hour at 6pm when the University bell rings. Very well-trained and friendly staff - in particular the welcome was excellent with a glass of port on the terrace and the attentive but not obtrusive dinner service led by the knowledgeable and friendly Joel was exceptional.

The hotel is in perfect location for tourists. Walking distance to all the sites. The room was spacious and very comfortable and the breakfast was nicely done.

Clean modern hotel. Small but modern and quiet room. The location near the University and the old town was great. Nice to have a free glass of wine in the evening. Lovely courtyard for lunch and wine. Good recommendation and reservation for dinner.
