Next to Arco de Almedina, and 450 meters from Railway Station Coimbra A , within the City Wall, it is ideal for sightseeing tours and historical walks such as the Old Cathedral, Santa Cruz Church and the University. Story Studio has a bedroom, living room with a single sofa bed, kitchen and bathroom, fully furnished and equipped, and underfloor heating ensures a comfortable stay, offering even wi-fi internet service and tv with more than 100 channels. The apartment also has a balcony where you can have your breakfast and relax after your visits to the Monuments and Museums of the City.
I am passionate about tourism and, in particular, the area of accommodation and I have the privilege of making this my life... Born and raised in Porto, I graduated in tourism and worked for several years in one of the world's leading hotel groups - ACCOR group. The desire to build a personal project in this area led me to embrace the idea of creating a network of tourism accommodation - Story Studio. The first unit of the brand is located in the Historic Centre of Coimbra, the second in the Historical Village of Piódão, the third in the Historical Village of Sortelha (official opening, in the second half of 2023), and the fourth in the Historical Village of Monsanto (official opening, probably, in the second half of 2024). I will be your host, and will always be available to help.
Almedina, is the "High" area of Coimbra, and historically delimited by the old city walls. It has been integrated into Unesco's World Heritage list in 2013. Discover the historic area of ​​the City of Coimbra between the narrow stone streets of the river. Sé Velha, where the Monumental Serenade of the Burning of the Ribbons is held, is 160 meters from the apartment. In the immediate vicinity there are restaurants, houses of Fado de Coimbra, and street commerce.
