Gorgeous hotel, beautiful well maintained historic palace home turned into a boutique hotel. Gorgeous relaxing patio where you can enjoy complimentary wine and cheese/olive/bread plates. Clean spacious room, great view of the city and glimpse of the water from our Juliette balcony. Complimentary Ginja cherry liquor and pastel de natas on check in. Staff all friendly and helpful, you can text with any needs. Great location in Chiado close to vibrant square with live musicians playing acoustic every night, walkable to shopping and restaurants and cafes. Tram stop walkable within less than a couple min where you can get on tram 28. Located on a Safe quiet side street off a cute square. We did a day tour of Sintra and Cascáis with their contracted driver, Bruno, who was wonderful! Highly recommend! Great price, flexible times, we customized the day to what we wanted and took our time with every historic sight (Pena Palace, Cabo da Roca, Boca do Infernó, Quinta de Regaleira). Don’t hesitate, book this hotel it was wonderful.

This property was beautiful, charming, and paired with an amazing group of staff members. They were warm and welcoming despite me not knowing their native language. This hotel was in the perfect spot with everything being a walk away. When I return to Lisbon, I will be staying here again and hopefully be able to speak their language properly!

Staff was phenomenal here. Beautiful property. Picked smaller room and we were a bit cramped, the complimentary wine cellar and self serve was a huge attraction for us at end of day. We enjoyed sitting on courtyard with a glass of their wine. Bring your hiking shoes to safely walk the hills. This place was amazing.

Top notch stay for your Lisbon travels
Absolutely beautiful hotel. The hospitality from the staff was top notch. The room was comfortable. The rooms make you feel like you stepped into the Bridgerton series, only in Poland. Daily Port Wine and cheese tastings, in addition to the cherry liquor and pastries they have out for snack. Large variety of breakfast options, and everything is homemade. Would highly recommend.

I had a wonderful three-night stay at Palácio das Especiarias! The property has a beautiful, old-world ambiance but with modern upgrades. My experience started with an airport pick-up the hotel arranged (30 euros); my driver, Bruno, was a delight and so helpful. Check-in was a breeze, and the staff was welcoming. My room was one of the smaller rooms, but it was beautifully appointed. I was right off the street, but I didn't hear anything—those windows are soundproof! I had a slight issue with the shower, but it was addressed quickly the following day. There are many common spaces within the hotel; I especially liked the garden outback, where I enjoyed a glass of the hotel's wine (there are three varieties, and all are tasty). The breakfast spread was bigger than I imagined and a great way to start the day. My favorite part of the hotel was its location. It felt very central, so walking to all the different neighborhoods was easy! There were also a couple of streetcar stops just around the corner. It was very hot while I was there, so I was able to explore and then pop back to the hotel for a break before heading out to enjoy Lisbon again! Obrigada, Palácio das Especiarias, for providing a fantastic home base during my first visit to your amazing city! I can't wait to come back.
