Hotel das Salinas by Alboi Group
City-center hotel with canal views, self-catering options, and a spa
About this stay
The Hotel das Salinas by Alboi Group places you right in the heart of Aveiro, with the city's central canal just outside your window. Mornings here often start with a buffet breakfast, or a quieter continental option in your room, before stepping out to explore the Art Nouveau houses and traditional Moliceiro boats. The self-catering rooms and apartments, each with a fully equipped kitchen, offer flexibility for families or longer stays. After a day of sightseeing, the hotel's spa provides a welcome retreat. The location is ideal for walking to the University, Forum Aveiro, and the many surrounding restaurants, bars, and shops.
