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. The property is around 21 km from Belmonte Calvário Chapel, 28 km from Manteigas Hot Springs and 34 km from SkiPark Manteigas. Guests can have a drink at the snack 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 :)

The Pousada features accommodation in gender-specific dormitory rooms, as well as in private twin rooms. The dormitories have access to shared bathroom facilities, while the twin rooms have their own private bathroom. Free WiFi access is available.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Good breakfast. They upgraded me for free to a double room with own bathroom. The room was very cozy. Highly recommended if you want to go for some hikes.

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.

    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.

    Great location with a really good view of the Serra. Breakfast was excellent with very nice variety and quality of foods and beverages. We were able to pick up a hiking trail within walking distance of the hotel. Staff was friendly and service was excellent.

    Spacious room with balcony and great view (mountains and the city). Comfortable bed and all the facilities room was offering. Closeby safe parking available. I wish could stay longer to use some of the hotel Gym and Spa facilieties, unfortunatelly stayed only one night. I liked the hotel vibe - active and eco friendly. Great value for money, would stay again!

    The staff was very kind and helpful. The hotel has been refurbished recently and they have done a great job. The rooms are very big and the bathroom is huge. The bed and pillows are very comfortable and the shower had good water pressure and temperature. The room had a lot of natural light but the black-out windows worked perfectly. Extremely cheap for the quality offered. It is located just a 5 min walk from Covilhã's city centre.
