Hotel Moliceiro holds the address every visitor wants: directly on the Canal Central, with the painted prows of its namesake boats passing beneath the windows and the Praça do Peixe two minutes away.
The house trades in warmth rather than scale: individually themed rooms — canal views the prize — generous breakfasts, afternoon port and sweets in the lounge, and a famously attentive staff that earns the hotel its loyal following. There is no pool or spa; location and care are the luxury.
For first visits to Aveiro, no hotel puts the city's postcard closer to the pillow.
