Come hang out with us in "Lisbon's Living Room". The Rossio Railway Station is an undisputed icon of late XIX Century Romantic architecture and it has recently undergone a profound facelift.

Unfortunately, my stay at the hostel was very uncomfortable. The room was extremely hot and stuffy, and the air conditioning simply wasn’t able to cool the room down. It was so hot that it was very difficult to sleep and the room felt quite suffocating. There was also a problem with the shower, as the water was not heating up, so there was no hot water available. Overall, these issues made the stay much more uncomfortable than expected and really need to be addressed.

my favourite hostel ive ever stayed at. the staff are so friendly and kind, and I felt so safe (which is huge for a solo female traveller) the location is absolutely perfect in my opinion, a grocery store near and a nice little walk to all the shops. it's quiet at night inside the hostel, so no party vibe if thats what you're looking for. the beds were comfy and had curtains, the showers and toilets were spacious. 1000/10. best stay ever.

Hostelworld says

We like that the recently-opened Lisbon Destination Hostel is located in Rossio train station, an ornate Romantic building of open spaces, high ceilings and big windows. Hostelworld visitors continually praise the ?informative, enthusiastic and very helpful? staff serving ?cheap delicious meals?, pancake breakfast and ?quite a lot of free guided tours?. One Hostelworld users said this hostel ?will make your travel even more enjoyable, because the atmosphere you breathe in...makes you feel [at] home and it?s like a big family?. Trains to Sintra leave from Rossio station and our guests assure us they ?never once heard a train? during their stay.
