10 Best Hotels in Baixa and Chiado, Lisbon (2027)

Our pick is Hotel da Baixa on Rua da Prata, 4★, 9.8/10 from 2,565 reviews. It is one of three hotels here scoring 9.8, the one with by far the most reviews behind that score, and it had rates on all twelve of our sample nights. Guests single out the breakfast and a concierge who leads guests on a free walk of the neighbourhood.

On a budget, Blue Liberdade on Praça dos Restauradores matches that 9.8 score for less (€99 on our January night, €158 in July), and Be Poet Baixa and Rossio Plaza stayed under €125 on every night we sampled. For a classic five-star, Hotel Avenida Palace by Rossio station barely changes price through the year, and Bairro Alto Hotel on Largo do Camões is the luxury choice in Chiado.

Not sure the Baixa is right for you? Our guide to where to stay in Lisbon compares it with Alfama, Príncipe Real, Cais do Sodré, the Avenida da Liberdade, Saldanha, Belém and Parque das Nações. For the ten best-reviewed hotels across the whole city, see our ranking of the best hotels in Lisbon.

Walking times to Rossio square are estimated from each hotel's location. The last two columns are the cheapest rate for two on our January and July 2027 sample nights, before the tourist tax.

Hotel da Baixa

4★, 9.8/10 from 2,565 reviews. On Rua da Prata in the middle of the Baixa grid, three minutes from Rossio. Guests praise the staff, the breakfast and a concierge-led walk of the neighbourhood that several mention by name. €147 a night for two on our January night, €291 in April, €278 in July and €384 in September, its dearest month. Watch out for: rooms are small, the lifts are too, and one guest found the bathroom window blind too see-through for the buildings opposite.

Blue Liberdade Hotel

3★, 9.8/10 from 3,105 reviews. On Praça dos Restauradores at the foot of the Avenida da Liberdade, a few minutes from Rossio and the Restauradores metro. Guests mention free fizz in the lobby, flavoured water and sweet treats, and a quiet room despite the location. €99 in January, €158 in July and €310 in September. Watch out for: the rooms are tiny, and the square outside is busy with the restaurant next door.

Art Legacy Hotel Baixa-Chiado

5★, 9.8/10 from 428 reviews. On Rua Áurea, five minutes from Rossio, and some rooms have a terrace or a view over the Baixa. Guests repeatedly name the front desk staff. €188 in January and €231 to €260 on most of our nights from April to October, but €545 on our July night, the highest single rate on this page apart from Bairro Alto Hotel. Watch out for: reviews of the breakfast are mixed, and one guest arriving by car found access awkward.

Hotel Avenida Palace

5★, 9.6/10 from 1,486 reviews. A 19th-century grand hotel beside Rossio station, overlooking Restauradores, with antique-style rooms, a breakfast guests rate highly and free valet parking, rare in the Baixa. Its price is the steadiest here: €268 to €323 on every one of our twelve nights, so it is relatively better value in summer and autumn than in winter. Watch out for: the rooms feel old to some guests, with firm beds and one report of a musty smell on the first night. Our hotel data flags it as not accepting children, so families should check with the hotel before booking.

Hotel Santa Justa

4★, 9.4/10 from 4,087 reviews. On a pedestrian corner of Rua dos Correeiros, a few steps from the Santa Justa lift, with modern rooms and a restaurant that one guest found hosting a fado evening. €109 in January, €231 in April and €282 in July. Watch out for: taxis and ride-hailing cars can't reach the door at some hours, so you may wheel your bags from the corner.

Be Poet Baixa Hotel

3★, 9.4/10 from 3,187 reviews. Right on Rua Augusta and the cheapest hotel on this page: €62 in January, €97 in July, €110 in September, and never above €118 on our twelve nights. Guests on the street side say the windows keep most of the noise out. Watch out for: rooms are small with little storage, there is no parking, and one guest found the luggage storage they'd been promised by email wasn't available.

Bairro Alto Hotel

5★, 9.4/10 from 515 reviews. A Leading Hotels of the World member in an 18th-century building on Largo do Camões, where Chiado meets Bairro Alto, with a spa and a rooftop terrace and restaurant looking over the river. Eight minutes from Rossio, uphill on the way back. The dearest hotel here at €528 in January and €533 to €716 from April to July; it had no rates for September or October, and €1,078 on our August night. Watch out for: it is an urban setting, and one guest noticed cooking smells in their room in the mornings and evenings.

Martinhal Lisbon Chiado

5★, 9.3/10 from 249 reviews. Family apartments, from studios to two bedrooms, on Rua das Flores in Chiado, with kitchens and a children's café, about ten minutes from Rossio. €161 in January and about €308 to €310 most months from April to October. It has the fewest reviews on this page, so weigh the score accordingly. Watch out for: some bathrooms are cramped, one guest found the kids' play room closed for refurbishment, and the walk up from the river is steep.

Rossio Plaza Hotel

3★, 9.2/10 from 5,453 reviews, the most-reviewed hotel on this page. On Rua Áurea two minutes from Rossio, and with Be Poet the cheapest: €66 in January, €122 in July and never above €124 on our nights. Watch out for: rooms are small, one guest heard a street band one night despite good windows, and some rooms have their own entrance beside the main door.

Hotel do Chiado

4★, 9.2/10 from 1,368 reviews. On Rua Nova do Almada, a minute from the Baixa-Chiado metro, with a rooftop bar looking over the Baixa to the castle; some rooms have their own terrace. €171 in January, €253 in July and €305 in September. Watch out for: one guest noticed a drain smell at the entrance and in the lifts, and another found the rooftop bar closed for a night without warning.

The cheapest available rate for two adults for one night, checked on 30 October 2026, on four Wednesday sample nights in 2027. Each figure is the lowest price on offer that night, whatever the room type, meal plan or cancellation terms, so it is usually non-refundable. A dash means the hotel had no published rate for that night.

Three things stand out. January is cheap almost everywhere: Hotel da Baixa, Blue Liberdade and Santa Justa cost less than half their September price. September is dearer than July at six of the nine hotels with both rates. And single nights swing: Art Legacy was €545 on our July night but €231 to €260 on most other nights from April to October, so price your own dates. For what each month is like, see Lisbon in January and Lisbon in September.

• Plan the last block. Rua Augusta and the streets around it are pedestrian, and guests at Santa Justa and Art Legacy describe drivers stopping a short walk away. If you have heavy bags, ask the hotel where to be dropped. Our Lisbon airport transfer guide covers the metro, taxis and private cars.
• Ask for an inner room if you sleep lightly. Street noise, from buskers to diners, comes up at Rossio Plaza and Be Poet; guests on the street side at both say the windows help.
• Driving? Hotel Avenida Palace includes valet parking, which is rare here. Most other hotels on this page have paid parking or none at all.
• Travelling with children? Martinhal Lisbon Chiado is built for families, with apartments and kitchens. Our hotel data flags Hotel Avenida Palace as not accepting children, so check with the hotel first. See Lisbon with kids for what to do.
• Add the tourist tax. Lisbon charges €4 per person per night, up to seven nights, on top of every rate on this page.
• Use the location. Most walking tours, food tours and tuk tuk tours start within a few minutes of these hotels, and the Sintra trains leave from Rossio station; see our Sintra day tour guide.
• Want more atmosphere? The best hotels in Alfama are 10 to 15 minutes east, two of them on a flat street by the river.
• Once you're settled: our guide to the best things to do in Lisbon covers the sights, tours and day trips worth booking.

We started from every hotel in the Baixa, Rossio and Chiado in our hotel reservation system with a guest score of 9.0 or more out of 10 and at least 200 reviews (34 hotels), and priced all of them on our sample nights.

• Availability: each hotel here had bookable rates on at least 10 of 12 monthly sample nights between 25 November 2026 and 13 October 2027 (one night, two adults, one Wednesday per month). Hotels with fewer rates, such as the two Dear Lisbon guesthouses in Chiado, were left out. Where a hotel returned the same implausibly high rate on several nights, we treated that as no rate.
• Prices: the cheapest available rate for two adults for one night, in euros, as returned on 30 October 2026, before Lisbon's tourist tax and other fees. It is the lowest price on offer regardless of room type, meal plan or cancellation terms, so flexible rates and breakfast usually cost more. The live grid prices a three-night stay about 30 days ahead instead. The final price is always set by Expedia or Booking.com, whichever you book on.
• Ratings and reviews: guest scores out of 10 and review counts come from our hotel data partner, Nuitée, and were checked on 30 October 2026. We read the 40 most recent reviews for each shortlisted hotel (the newest from October 2026) and checked them for theft, safety, pest, mould and closure reports; none of the ten had any. Where recent reviews raise a recurring issue, we say so.
• The final ten: from the hotels that passed, we chose a spread of budget, mid-range and luxury options across the Baixa, Rossio and Chiado, favouring high scores backed by many reviews and steady recent reviews. We left out Pestana Rua Augusta (9.7) because its most recent reviews averaged under 9 and included repeated housekeeping complaints, and Portugal Boutique Hotel because it overlaps closely with Santa Justa on price and location.
• Order: our pick comes first; the rest are ordered by guest score, then review volume.
