The property has an amazing view over town, very unique interior which was clean and well laid out. We loved the jetted tub and that breakfast was included as well as a welcome snack and drink.
This is a quirky property in a good way and a fabulous location close to the university. They are stairs down to the city centre and and an elevator/funicular just a minute from the property if needed. The staff were truly wonderful. At check-in, they made recommendations for walkable restaurants including one only a minute away, which ended up being the best restaurant meal of our 30 day trip. A staff member came to walk us through the amenities including the big Jacuzzi tub and the mini fridge with water, juice, and beer that was replenished daily. They also delivered two glasses of bubbly and some beautiful homemade cake to welcome us. I know all the rooms are quite different and of course, we only saw our own. The entrance to ours was from the outside so we had no stairs to deal with. We loved all the big exposed beams and beautiful brick work on the walls and the ceiling. We are on the taller side and we did whack our heads a couple of times on the lower beams :-). I think that some of the other rooms off the ground level have higher ceilings so you probably contact the property directly if this was a concern. Another lovely touch was the breakfast basket that got delivered every day with an assortment of pastries, cereal, some scrambled eggs, fruit/juice. It was also quirky but it got a little something into us before we started the day. If we were ever back in Coimbra I would rebook at this property immediately.
WOW. This hotel blew our expectations and anticipations out of the water. From the first interaction, they, especially Catarina, were incredibly friendly, helpful and helped us settle right in to Coimbra. Then there's the property itself. The original stone walls and arch ways, the VIEWS and the furnishings are just breathtaking. Out of all the places we stayed in Portugal during our 10 day trip, this was the location we wished we could go back to most. Cannot recommend highly enough.
The rooms were awesome, with arches and low ceilings but really nice. Comfortable beds and breakfast delivered to your room were great. Close to most major attractions and restaraunts.
The room was clean and we had a great view of the city. The breakfast was good and the champagne and cake at check in was a nice added bonus. The walk up to the hotel was steep so best to take an overnight bag and leave everything else back in the car.
Most amazing rooms. I had the 1 bedroom room with hottub. So cute and comfy. My friends had the spa suite. Amazing!! Welcome gifts and goodbye gifts. The breakfast each morning delivered in a basket and more food than you need. Presentation was on point. Very clean. My only concern was rhe noise aa my room faced the roadside so you heard everyone walking by. Hotel was in a center pointe which all cafes and shopping were walkable. The people were amazing and sweet!! Cant wait to stay again next year!!
Quirky, fun place to stay. Evening staff was just great with recommendations. Mention Katarina’s name at Sette! Details make this place very special. Breakfast has something for everyone - and lots of it! …and a welcome drink and a little present when you leave. What a lovely experience!
3 levels of stairs in guest room - no.
Breakfast delivered made up for terrible reviews as did good check in lady.

I would not stay again. The first room they put us in we couldn’t even fit our luggage. It had a rickety spiral staircase to the bed. We asked to change and were out in a better room, the toilet room was a small tunnel and was musty. The best thing was the in room breakfast.
Our room was incredible, as was the breakfast that was delivered to our room each morning. It’s worth noting the hotel is at the top of a hill, there is an elevator that you can take to the top.
Don't hesitate -- book here! After a delayed, somewhat frantic rerouted journey from Porto due to a strike, walking into Solar Antigo was like a ray of sunshine. We were tired and a bit deflated only to be greated (hours before check-in) by friendly staff with drinks and warm sweet bread. The room was ideal, comfortable, beautiful, with everything we needed including plenty of hot water, a mini-frig and a large comfortable bed (which my daughter immediately fell asleep in). Refreshed we wandered just a few blocks over to enjoy the university, Biblioteca Joanina & the old town. It was pouring but we didn't mind after such a wonderful check-in experience (and our rainjackets!). The location while a bit tricky to find (we came from the bus station via Bolt and our driver asked for directions from some very helpful university students) is ideal for exploring. In the age of self-catering apts (which we use frequently) Solar Antigo is a reminder of what that often causes you to miss -- interaction with locals and the value of service. Stay at Solar Antigo!
Staff was amazing!!! Arriving by car was a bit of a challenge but our stay was amazing!!! Loved the welcome champagne and cake, the in room hot tub, and delightful breakfast basket delivered to room. It was a five minute walk to the university and Machado museum and I highly recommend both!!!
