It is one of the neighbourhoods that is located in central Lisbon. In the&nbsp;<strong><em>Baixa<\/em><\/strong>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<strong><em>Chiado<\/em><\/strong>&nbsp;areas, you will find plenty of restaurants and caf\u00e9s, and you will get to experience the old Lisbon. If you choose one of these areas to stay in Lisbon, you will be able to visit the main landmarks of the city which are a short walking distance away. When necessary, you can use the elevators that will get you to&nbsp;<strong><em>Bairro Alto<\/em><\/strong>. The neoclassical area of&nbsp;<strong><em>Baixa<\/em><\/strong>&nbsp;has more office buildings but has become more touristy these last years with the appearance of caf\u00e9s and restaurants. While the&nbsp;<strong><em>Chiado<\/em><\/strong>&nbsp;is more lively, with its many stores, bookshops, and theatres that always keep the streets busy! In order to understand why Lisbon has become a popular place in Europe, you need to see Chiado: on your own &#8211; or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/tour\/lisbon-walking-tours\/chiado-sunset-tour\/?utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=Blog&amp;utm_content=Place-Chiado\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">with a walking tour.<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h3>Pros of staying in Baixa:<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Central Location:<\/strong> Baixa is easily accessible by foot, bike, or public transportation.

The hotels in the area are more expensive than in other areas in Lisbon. Additionally, there are not many non-touristy restaurants and caf\u00e9s where one can eat with the locals. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Best Hotels to Stay in Baixa<\/h3>\n<h3>AlmaLusa Baixa Chiado<\/h3>\n<p>Magnificent historic sites and spots, like Commerce Square and Rossio Square, surround this hotel.

Even if you decide to stay in another area, you&#8217;ll have to visit the lovely <strong><i>Alfama<\/i><\/strong> if you want to experience the most traditional aspects of the city! However, since it is located on top of a hill, I wouldn&#8217;t recommend people who don&#8217;t particularly like walking to stay there.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"disco-2303645021\"><div style=\"width: 100%; border: 2px solid lightgray; padding: 3% 6% 3% 3%; border-radius: 5px;\">A good way to discover Alfama is by joining a walking tour.

This makes it convenient for you to access other areas of the city. The advantage of staying here is that it is close to all public transport which will take you to attractions nearby.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rich History<\/strong> \u2013 This neighbourhood is surrounded by several iconic squares and historic buildings, including the Rossio train station, the National Theatre D. Maria II, and the Rossio Palace.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Energetic atmosphere \u2013<\/strong> As a bustling neighbourhood, there are several restaurants, cafes, and shops to explore. Some of the caf\u00e9s and shops in Rossio date from the 18th century, like the Caf\u00e9 Nicola, where poet Manuel Maria Barbosa du Bocage used to meet friends. It is also a melting pot of vibrant culture and tradition worth experiencing while in Lisbon.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tourist attractions<\/strong> &#8211; Rossio is located close to several of the city\u2019s top attractions such as Santa Justa Elevator, the S\u00e3o Jorge Castle, Column of Pedro IV, Estaus Palace, Hospital Real de Todos os Santos, Pombaline Downtown, Pra\u00e7a do Com\u00e9rcio, Rossio massacre, Rossio Train Station, Teatro Nacional D.

On some occasions, street performers and musicians who play well into the evening may entertain you.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Crowded<\/strong> &#8211; As a popular tourist location, Rossio can be crowded, especially during peak season. The best way to handle this is to get to tourist attractions early to avoid crowds.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Not very pocket-friendly \u2013<\/strong> A budget traveller may find staying at Rossio expensive compared to other neighbourhoods in Lisbon. The reason for this is that it is close to the tourist attractions as well as its central location.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Concrete jungle \u2013<\/strong> Its central location and popularity with tourists and lack of green spaces, make this area not conducive for people with children or nature lovers.<\/p>\n<h3>Best Hotels to Stay in Rossio, Lisbon:<\/h3>\n<h3>Hotel Santa Justa<\/h3>\n<p>Located just a few minutes from Rossio, this hotel has some well-designed rooms with modern amenities. &nbsp;If you love chasing sunsets, the hotel\u2019s rooftop terrace will not only give you that but also panoramic views of the city.<\/p>\n<p>What stands out about this hotel is its perfect location between Pra\u00e7ca do Rossio, Chiado and Pra\u00e7a do Com\u00e9rcio.
