Mira Serra Hostel, hotel in Covilhã

Located in Caria, 35 km from Parque Natural Serra da Estrela, Mira Serra Hostel provides accommodation with a shared lounge, free private parking, a restaurant and a bar.

Very clean and tastefully equipped! My room was spacious with wonderful view on the mountains and the village square. I slept like a baby, it’s very peaceful at night. Staff is extremely friendly, Marta (the owner) was responsive and available for all my requests. There is a little surprise drink, which is a very nice touch. Breakfast with pastry, bread and coffee/tea is in the restaurant in the same building, and parking for free is on the side.

Covilhã Hostel, hotel in Covilhã

Situated in Covilhã and with Parque Natural Serra da Estrela reachable within 18 km, Covilhã Hostel features a shared lounge, non-smoking rooms, free WiFi throughout the property and a bar.

good value for money, definitely the cheapest option on offer when I visited. it’s a family run building, and Joao was kind enough to pick me up at the bus station with his car! it’s conveniently located, you can walk everywhere, nice view of the city from my room, a big kitchen to cook meals and decent bathroom. Cozy room with lots of natural lights, mattress is not the best but the towels were the softest :)

I truly have nothing but good things to say about this hostel and the host Margarida. The place is super lovely, welcoming, clean, and spacious. Lots of equipment for example in the kitchen, nice location with mountain view. And Margarida is super nice, helpful and just a very decent person who even helped me when I got sick and needed medicine.

Looking for a hostel?
Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Everything was good. The location was perfect for us as we had no car and it is exactly in the center of the city. Fortunately, Uber and bolt service is the best option to travel/explore to other parts of the city. We have hired one local guide with his car which made us the cheapest trip to explore Serra da Estrela, Cortes do meio and various beautiful locations. We enjoyed a lot.

    We love this apartment. It is in a great location in the old town and only a 10-minute walk from the Michelin restaurant . Taberna A Laranjinha The apartment is large, on two floors, and very well equipped. The bed in the bedroom is very comfortable. The apartment thoughtfully prepares coffee capsules and chocolate for guests. And if you have any questions, just call the staff and they will help you.

    Great location. Lovely apartment. Owners were very helpful with advice on the area and finding me a return vehicle as my motorhome broke down. Super helpful as I had my dog with me. Hence the yellow sofa cover.
