About this property
The ‘Story Studio’ Coimbra Centre is located in the historic area
The 'Story Studio' Coimbra Centro is located in the historic area of Coimbra, near the Arco de Almedina and 450 meters from Coimbra A Railway Station, within the Walled City. This location is ideal for tourism and walks through historic areas such as the Sé Velha, the Church of Santa Cruz, and the University of Coimbra.
The one-bedroom apartment guarantees a comfortable stay, offering Wi-Fi internet service and a TV with over 100 channels. Additionally, it has a balcony where you can have your breakfast and relax after visiting the city's monuments and museums.
Almedina, also called "Alta," was included in the UNESCO World Heritage list in 2013. The Sé Velha, where the Monumental Serenade of Queima das Fitas takes place, is 160 meters from the apartment, and the University of Coimbra is 500 meters away. Nearby, you will find restaurants, Fado houses, and street shops, making it very convenient for guests who wish to visit the city's historic area.
Although parking is limited and paid in the vicinity of the historic center, the nearest covered public parking lot is about 600 meters away, specifically Bragaparques.
According to the municipal regulations of Coimbra, a tourist tax of 1.00 euro per person, per night, is applied during your stay. It is important to note that this tax is limited to a maximum of three consecutive nights. Therefore, for longer stays, the tax will be applied only for the first three nights.
