Beira Hotels with Restaurants

"Outstanding hotel, lovely for a small relaxing by the Douro river. Breathtaking views, amazing food and very nice interior decor. Staff are great (reception is exemplary!), however I would say that restaurant staff need to improve on their English as I felt service is much better in Portuguese than English (I’m Portuguese and my partner’s English which is how we noticed this difference). Otherwise, this has inspired us to think about going to yet another Octant hotel in future (we’ve been to the one in Évora before which is also great!)"

"Despite its location on a busy street, this hotel is centrally located, near the river, and the historic city center. Highly insulated, the small, but efficient, rooms are quiet and comfortable. The buffet breakfast is superb, served in a beautiful, light-filled penthouse room. The roofdeck, on a moonlight night is a plus. "

"Parking is extra but very convenient. Well located to get into the heart of city by foot."

"When we arrived, the room we had was awful, bathroom tiles/ grout were dirty and moldy. Toilet and sink were ok. Overall a dingy room. My friend went to front desk to see if we could have another room, she was told not possible, hotel was booked. We figured it just 2 nights, we’ll bare it. Off we went to visit Coimbra. Upon our return (6 hours later) we noticed the AC was not working. Went to front desk, let them know we had an issue, a staff member came up to room to see what the issue was. She was very nice but unable to get it working. Eventually we were given another room, much better and bigger,1 king bed and single bed. However the bathroom tiles were awful as well. The water pressure is great and the towels are thick and absorbent."

"Our stay was nice but this is not a 5 star hotel any longer. It is in need of some updating and better explanation of available amenities upon check in."

"Room was spotless, bed very comfortable and room had everything needed. Quiet venue a short walk from centre, and great meal in the adjoining restaurant. There was free street parking all along the hotel road. "

"Just stayed for a night. Wonderful hotel and well maintained. Felt safe and convenient."

"Nice hotel , friendly peoples"
