Some of the bedrooms feature beautiful views of the city and Mondego River.
The bed and breakfast’s superb location ensures you easy access to all Coimbra has to offer. Relax, after a long day of sightseeing, in the friendly atmosphere of Casa Pombal. The enthusiastic staff will do its best to make you feel at home as well as inform you about the city's many sights.
