Quinta das Lagrimas, Coimbra

Description: Quinta das Lagrimas

Standing in huge grounds on the outskirts of Coimbra, Quinta das Lagrimas is set in a magnificently restored 18th century palace, reputedly built on the site of the tragic 14th century love story between Prince Pedro and Inês de Castro. This luxury boutique hotel offers exclusive accommodation and fine dining in a splendid historic setting.

Ideal for relaxing visits to this beautiful city, Quinta das Lagrimas is just a few steps away from the Monastery of Santa Clara-a-Velha, while the historic centre of Coimbra, with its two cathedrals, the university and the fabulous Joanina library, is a twenty minute walk across the river. Guests can choose from rooms in the magnificent 18th-century palace, the charming Garden residence or the avant-garde modernity of the Spa building. Exclusive on-site facilities include a nine-hole pitch-and-putt course, a driving range, a lake, and two large swimming pools. For total relaxation after busy days sightseeing, the Bamboo Garden Spa boasts a heated indoor pool, a Turkish Bath, Sauna, and a fully equipped fitness room.
