Small and Special

This is a lovely little boutique hotel with only eight rooms in a once private palace. It’s elegant and funky, with a nice breakfast, located in a perfect spot. The staff are absolutely incredibly friendly and helpful. We loved our stay and I would recommend this hotel to anyone.

With having only eight rooms, this boutique hotel is amazing. We arrived (from Lisbon by train) early so popped in to drop our luggage. Although we were earlier than 3pm, our room was ready so we were able to check-in. Staff are incredibly polite and even gave us a brief history of the building, whilst escorting us to the room. The room was fabulous and beautiful decor throughout the hotel. Three double, shuttered windows over-looking the canal. When open it could be a little noisy, simply from the boats tooting their horns, which was fun! When shut, the windows were total sound-proofed and black-out shutters. There is a lift/elevator. There is even a rooftop bar and seating area inside and outside balcony. The bar is via an honesty system, which we didn't use but looked amazing choice and reasonable price. The bed was very comfortable and superb power shower. So, highly recommend this beautiful boutique hotel in a perfect location.

I was glad to have been traveling solo as I wouldn't want to share with anyone else. Towels and bed were plush and I loved having a key like old days. Don't change as it was exceptional stay.

Good location. Very nice room. Difficult to unload as the hotel frontage is in a very tight street. Parking is available but you have to use a card key (borrowed from the front desk) to park your car at the mall parking lot across the street. It is a bit of a challenge navigating to the hotel and the mall.

We had a lovely suite that was very comfortable! The hotel was convenient to several places of interest, and we had parking in the shopping center across the street. Breakfast was plentiful and very good. The staff were friendly and very helpful to us in making suggestions and reservations for restaurants. We loved Aveiro so we expect to visit again, and we'll consider staying at the 1877 Estrela Palace again.

Every inch of the property has been impeccably decorated. Absolutely stunning, very spacious rooms and beautiful breakfast. Be careful, as you will rather stay in your room than visit the city!!
