Hotels in Centro Region, Portugal

Centro Region sits in central Portugal, with a Mediterranean climate-mild winters around 50°F (10°C) and warm summers hitting 80°F (27°C). It's famous for Coimbra's 13th-century university, where you can explore the Joanina Library and hear fado music, a melancholic genre born in student taverns. In winter, hike the granite peaks of Serra da Estrela for snow views, while summer's perfect for kayaking through Aveiro's canals or surfing the Atlantic swells at Peniche's Supertubos beach.
