💡 Not a tram — it's an articulated electric bus that climbs the steep hill from the Mondego riverfront up to Rua Larga. Get off at 'Praça da República' stop. The hotel is 2 mins walk east. Buy a rechargeable 'Andante' card at any kiosk, avoids loose change.
Coimbra-B Station → Coimbra Parque (Estação Nova)

Lisbon Airport (LIS) → Coimbra Bus Terminal
💡 Buy tickets online at Rede Expressos for €12. The bus drops you at Terminal Rodoviário, then it's a 10-min walk uphill to the hotel — skip that if you have bags, take a short taxi (€5).
Porto Airport (OPO) → Residencial Botânico
💡 Fix the price before getting in at the rank — drivers at OPO often quote €120 if they see luggage. Pre-book via Taxi Coimbra for a solid €85 flat rate.

Top Attractions in Coimbra
💡 Skip the paid ticket for the Joanina Library if you're on a budget. The São Miguel Chapel often has short free entry slots during services.
💡 Stand at the side entrance to hear the choir practising during evening mass (weekdays around 17:30). Best for atmosphere without paying.
💡 Enter from the lower gate near Rua do Arco da Traição to avoid the steep main steps. The bamboo grove at the top is the coolest spot on hot days.
💡 Combine with a walk along the riverside from the Ponte de Santa Clara. Bring water – the uphill path is steep.
💡 Arrive just before 10am on Sunday to avoid the queue. The crypt with the Roman forum remains is the standout – spend time there first.
