Serenata Hostel & Suites

what a gorgeous hostel!! absolutely perfect location in central Coimbra, the room was stunning with beautiful city views and the staff were so friendly and helpful to get us sorted and give recommendations of what to do and see during our stay. The bathrooms and all shared facilities were well-maintained, clean and modern. HIGHLY recommend.

We had a wonderful experience in this hostel. We booked a private double room at the 3rd / last floor. We had a nice view of the university overlooking the city. You can feel that the building has stood the test of time, very well renovated and preserved as well. The wooden staircase is particularly impressive. Is it very central in the old Coimbra. Just beside Sé Velha (which I highly recommend visiting but beware, it closes quite early).

My stay in Serenata was wonderful. Normally I don't write reviews. But this time I really want to let the world now what a great place this is. The owners and crew were very open and warm. They take good care of the guests. And I'm recommending this place to everyone who's planning to visit Coimbra! The dorm was clean, loved the view out of the window in the morning! I'll definitely would go back to this beautiful place. 🍀 Leila

I had a fantastic stay at this hostel in Coimbra, set in a beautiful historical building. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, providing great local tips. The location is ideal, just a short walk from major attractions like the University of Coimbra. With great amenities and a vibrant community, this hostel is a must-visit for anyone exploring Coimbra.

The building the hostel is in is so beautiful. You also get a towel for free which is not the case in most hostels. They offer breakfast which I didn't eat but it smelled wonderful. The staff is also really helpful. The location is also really central and you only have a few minutes to the university, but beware that everything is really steep in Coimbra

Hostel with a wonderful location right in the heart of ancient Coimbra. Pleasant historical building with lots of atmosphere and a good traveller’s vibe. Pleasant staff. Mix of dorms an affordable private rooms. Though the street can be noisy, the thick walls and windows block it all, so it won’t disturb you when you want to sleep! Very clean.

Pretty nice strutture, different rooms have the see on the church and the staff is amazing. Caroline and João are the jewel of the hotel, they have been very helpfull organizing my transfert from Coimbra to Lousa. I deeply appreciated it. The people like them are who makes the difference beetwen a normal stay and an hospitality experience.

The best hostel I’ve been to by far. Originally only planned to stay a night in Coimbra as a stop along the way. The staff were spectacular, the most kind, accommodating and fun people you will meet. João especially is one the best and most genuine people I’ve met. He gave me a list of the best local eats and showed me and my hostel mates around the local nightlife. Location is great, right by the old cathedral. The rooms are amazing, beds are super comfortable. Totally want to come back and wish I booked for more than one night!
