Hard bed!
100+ year old hotel that they have tried to preserve close to it’s original character. Obviously it wont have modern features and that’s fine with me. I only gave this three stars not because of the age but because of the hardness of the bed and issues with the cooling/fan. Cooling issues were resolved quickly (thank you!). Bed hardness was not (until I could get back to my chiropractor). The breakfast was very nice (European), but it was the same every day. Some variety would be nice. Staff were mostly friendly and accommodating.
Great service friendly staff and a great location for a nights stay. Charming art deco hotel, a little tired but very original. I would stay again. Internet seemed to only work in the lobby.
The building is 100 years old and a bit of a time capsule. The location is fantastic if you arrive by train at Coimbra-A as it's a 3 minute walk away. Lots of good restaurants in the street behind the hotel. The staff were super helpful with ideas and maps -- much better than the official tourism office staff!

First of all I knew from previous reviews the hotel was showing its age but my view was it had alot of charisma and charm. It also checked all the boxes for me on being convienently located, clean, quiet, and comfortable. Everything in my room functioned fine and my bed was comfortable. The breakfast provided was a wonderful way to start the day. I would not hesitate to stay again.
We enjoyed the old world charm of this property and the location is amazing , right on the river with many options for food and culture right outside the doors.
Great location, great place, lovely helpful staff. Very clean. Nothing to complain about here.

Great location, shamed about the hotel
Great location but hotel is run down and could do with updating. No coffee making facilities in the rooms and shower temperature is hit and miss. When we arrived staff were very rude and spoke to us like something she had just stood on.
Great stay in a hotel with lots of character! It is situated in a perfect location: walkable distance to iconos, restaurantes. Staff very helpful! Room had a great view to the river. Street a little noisy but the view was marvelous! Bed comfy. Good breakfast! I would stay in again!

A grand old dame of a honey era, if those walls could talk. Must have been something in its time. If you are looking for all the things a modern hotel offers you might want to pass. We really enjoyed the historical features of this art deco property. The staff were simply amazing, so friendly and accommodating. We would stay there again.
A fabulous Art Deco hotel with incredible characte
I was very pleased to stay in this historic art deco architecture hotel built in 1924. The original yet well kept finishes were part of the enjoyment.
The hotel shows its age, but that age gives the Astoria its warm character

I had read reviews that this hotel was tired, but it is really tired. Carpets in the bedroom could have been much cleaner. It has the bones to be a grand dam, but it just isn’t. Sad to say, I would not return . People are nice and I feel for them and their jobs, but the owners are not reinvesting.
