Hotels with Breakfast in Se Nova

During my travels I always choose hotels with pools, as I like to relax in them in the morning and in the afternoon after exploring. That was also the case here in Coimbra. But, shortly after booking that hotel with a pool by Mondego river, I cancelled it when I saw pics of Solar Antigo. I sacrificed the pool and did the right thing. Solar Antigo is an amazing boutique hotel with a luxury touch. It consists of series of rooms in several historical buildings in old Coimbra, on top of the hill, close to the University. Each room is individually designed with amazing attention to details. Every inch of the room is carefully planned and beautiful with stylish furniture. We booked the ordinary room, but got an upgrade for a two level Jacuzzi room (probably God's compensation for that pool). The staff is so kind and welcoming - they waited for us almost until midnight to arrive. They provide free parking by the hotel in that tiny uphill street. Amazing views of Coimbra from your window. Breakfast is served in a basket and delivered to your room in the morning. You have 2 TVs, AC, bathrobe, coffee machine and a refrigerator with complimentary cooled bottle of champagne and couple of beers - unbelievable and unseen for a price of around 70 Euros a night for two people. The only problem is finding this jewel, specially at night when we arrived. But once there, all Coimbra attractions are in a very close walking distance. I must emphasize in terms of quality/price/location, Solar Antigo is one of the best hotels I've stayed in my 30 years of travel being in 500+ hotels in over 80 countries on all continents.

La posizione, ai piedi della parte alta della città, di per sé è ottima, un po' meno lo è quanto a disponibilità dei mezzi pubblici di trasporto. È un vecchio palazzotto, già appartenuto a qualche notable del luogo, recentemente ristrutturato. Le camere sono ampie e luminose, con bagno, ma manca il bidet. Se l'insonorizzazione esterna è buona, quella interna, a causa dei pavimenti in legno, regala qualche scricchiolio di troppo. Il garage, gratuito, non è il massimo della comodita, visti gli spazi angusti di manovra. Buona la colazione. Non ho usufruito degli altri servizi (piscina, palestra, ecc.) La ragazza alla reception è cortese e disponibile. Tornati alle 17 abbiamo avuto la sgradita sorpresa di trovare la camera nelle stesse condizioni in cui l'avevamo lasciata, cioè con il letto da rifare. Valutarlo 4 stelle mi sembra un tantino ottimistico, direi un ottimo 3 stelle.

Stayed at this homestay for three nights, the homestay is right next to the Republic Square, walk 100 meters through the Republic Square to the famous University of Coimbra, and the Coimbra Migration Board is also 250 meters away. The biggest highlight of the homestay is the public kitchen and living room on the first floor. It is fully equipped and it is very convenient to make something to eat. The kitchen leads to the small courtyard of the hotel. There are two platforms up and down. Oranges are planted. The fruit is full and you can pick it at will. The hotel's cleaning aunt is very warm and friendly. If you have the opportunity to come to Coimbra again, you will definitely stay at this homestay.
