Schist Villages Spa Hotel

"A fabulous stay here by family of 3. Great room with king bed and a single bed for 16 year old. Fabulous decor and bathroom and in room air conditioning. The staff were amazing and alway happy, polite and willing to help I. Every way. Nice main pool with separate Childs shallow pool and a gym/spa area. Located on top of a large hill with excellent views over the surrounding countryside and only 5 minutes of the main motorway. Breakfast was included and excellent with hot/cold options, good selection of pastries and cereals with various juices/coffee etc etc. extremely happy with the stay, hotel and staff. Highly recommend staying here and we will be back as we have a large amount of family and friends in the area. "

"Great staff. Lovely pool. Great views over river "

"Quinta das Lágrimas has such an important and interesting place in Portuguese history, which we enjoyed learning about during our stay. The old house and surrounding gardens are beautiful and romantic, even in the winter. Our room was in the spa wing, and it was large and comfortable, but the “Queen” bed was actually two twins pushed together (which is common in Europe), the shower flooded easily, and the bathroom door was extremely difficult to lock and unlock. As Canadians, we were also surprised to learn that we were not allowed to use the indoor pool without a swimming cap."

"Centrally located by the Coimbra university. Staff very helpful. Lovely breakfast "
