Lisboa Rossio

Nice station building in the city center near the Rossio metro station. Trains depart from the floor where, in addition to the ticket offices, there are also ticket machines by the escalators, which we used without any problems and bought pre-loaded cards - they are the same as for buses and the metro. According to the information, however, they cannot be combined on the same day with tickets for city transport. The ticket is used to open the turnstile when entering the platform and also when exiting the destination station. We used the station on our trip to Sintra. The train to Sintra takes about 40 minutes.

Tourists from all over the world are captivated by the Neo-Manueline façade that dominates the northwest corner of Rossio Square. It is a visible and significant showcase of the Manueline style in this part of the city, which was typical of 16th-century Portugal. The station's main features include two interlocking horseshoe-shaped portals, a clock in a small turret, and, of course, the lavish, rich sculptural decorations typical of the Manueline style. Between the two entrances stands a sculpture of the Portuguese King Sebastian, whose small size reflects the king's youth, who was killed in battle in what is now Morocco in the 16th century. The station was designed by José Luís Monteiro and built between 1886 and 1887. The station itself was closed to both rail traffic and tourists from 2004 to 2008 due to the modernization and renovation of the railway tunnel. Inside Rossio Station, you'll find, among other things, a Starbucks coffee shop and a hostel.

No problems whatsoever. Very clean, quick trains, and a lot of space on each carriage.

A gorgeous stunning train station. Took me a minute to realize this was a train station, it looks like a museum! Efficient courteous staff. Easy to navigate and find your train! From this train station in pretty Lisbon one can embark on an adventure into ancient lands with castles and fortresses and palaces and from there, a 2.60 bus gets you to the westernmost point of Europe- the end of the earth! What a thrilling experience. And it all began here 💜

the Lisbon train stations has very efficient train system that can take anyone around the country. The station is clean and some have hostel in the station that provide excellent accommodations. The price can be cheap to very expensive! The hostel have priceless information for anyone planning to tour the city and country.

The station may look beautiful, but the service counter is where politeness disappears. After paying for two tickets, the machine gave only a receipt and an error. When we asked for help, the woman at the counter refused to assist and instead shouted at us. She can’t sell tickets properly, but when it comes to shouting at travelers, she is a true professional.

Went to the station on September 12th around 8am, the young girl at the ticket counter with brown blondish hair was so rude, rolled her eyes when I asked about hop on hop off bus in Sintra!! Like, girl you get paid for this, chill! Other than that great station. Loved the architecture, station and trains were clean and easy to navigate.

one of the finest stations I've ever seen. built on the hillside, it has a grand look and is very pretty, possibly one of the best buildings in the city. the ticketing booth system was a little slow, which nearly made us miss our hourly train, but otherwise it was a pleasant experience. busy though. the platforms were lovely, with a high spacious ceiling. note that the corresponding metro station is quite a short walk to the east, and restauradores is actually a bit closer.
