We got a good price on our room through Expedia and although the room was small, it was very comfortable and attractive. The staff were professional, helpful and accommodating. The breakfast was delicious and amazing in its variety. The property is a very short walk from the beginning/end of the 24E trolley line and not far from Metro stations, the Rossio train station, and seemingly hundreds of restaurants. This was one of the nicest hotels I have ever stayed at, absolutely deserving of its four stars. I recommend it highly.

The hotel and staff were very nice. The breakfast was amazing and the pianist playing I. The morning was so special. The staff treat us more like family than just customers. They provided great recommendations for restaurants. The tram is right across the street which was convenient. We will definitely stay here again when we return.

Charming Stay in Lisbon’s Chiado Neighborhood
This is a must stay if you’re visiting Lisbon. The rooms are so charming, the staff welcoming, and the amenities plentiful. It is in a perfect location, walkable to most everything, including a metro, lovely cafes, the waterfront, and other desired sites. Our favorite perk besides the exquisite breakfast spread is the wine cave! We have stayed here twice and we will be back!

It’s quite unfortunate that Palácio das Especiarias was my first stopover in Portugal, because no other hotel after this has been good enough for me. Apart from its own unique charm, this hotel appears to spare no effort in hosting its guests with great generosity and goodwill. The two Carla’s are infectious with their cheerfulness, can-do attitude, humor and kindness and they set this tone throughout the hotel to make it a most pleasant and memorable stay.
