Located on the second and third floor of a building directly across from Rossio train station and next to Rossio Square, the Pensão Estacao Central provides frill-free, cheap sleeping in the center of town. The 27-room pension is family-run, old-fashioned and bare-bones.

The Estacao's second-floor lounge and reception area is a stuffy, smoky affair, with leather sofas and plants. Bedrooms sport brighter colors, laminated floors, simple beds and not much else. There are no TVs, telephones or even air conditioners here. Mid-sized bathrooms are equipped with mini-tub/shower combos and bidets.

It's all about location and price at the Estacao. For around €85, you can reserve a double with private facilities, next to Rossio Square. It's no charmer, but it's a deal.

Location: Very central

0.7km to city center

The grid-shaped Baixa neighborhood was completely rebuilt following Lisbon’s devastating 1755 earthquake. Today the area functions as the city's chief shopping area, offering everything from boutiques to tourist traps. Two large streets, rua Augusta and rua de Santa Justa, are pedestrian-only thoroughfares.

Baixa is an easy jumping-off point for seeing the rest of the city. Praça Rossio, sitting at the top of Baixa, is the city's most active square. At the base of Baixa is the Praça do Comércio, a square of wide arcades adjacent to the river.
