Rossio Plaza
Rossio Plaza is located right in the heart of central Lisbon, in the historic Baixa neighborhood of downtown. Many of the city’s main tourist sights – not to mention the hottest bars and night clubs – are within walking distance, and for those times when your feet are too tired from dancing the night away you can take advantage of the various kinds of public transportation which stop right at the hostel’s front door.
The dorm style rooms at Rossio Plaza are clean, comfortable and colorful – three things that are always welcome in a dorm – and the shared bathrooms are bright and spacious. All the decor looks new and gives the whole place a warm and inviting atmosphere. A combination of couches and bean bags make it casual, too.
Some of the amenities you will find at Rossio Plaza are:
- Free linens and towels
- Free breakfast and free coffee & tea all day
- Free internet access and WiFi access
- Free CD/DVD burning facilities
- Free luggage storage and free individual security lockers (including free locks)
- Guest kitchen and laundry facilities
- On site bar
- No lockout and no curfew
- 24 hour reception and 24 hour check in
You might think that with such a central location and great rates, Rossio Plaza would not have to offer excellent amenities – but you would be wrong. In addition to some of the more standard ones (like free breakfast and free linens), this hostel goes a step beyond most hostels by making the towels free as well. And you know those under-bed lockers you usually get with bunk beds in dorm rooms? Well, not only are those free, but the locks are free, too.
The staff at Rossio Plaza are just as warm as the hostel they run, and often will organize nights out in the Bairro Alto for guests. They are also on hand to help you plan your stay in Lisbon, too, with recommendations and tips. In the end, you just might feel like you are staying with friends rather than in a hostel.
