Our verdict
Lisbon Destination Hostel is inside Rossio railway station: you take the escalators or lift from the station's main entrance to the second floor, and trains to Sintra leave from the same building. The dorms are set around a skylit indoor garden the hostel calls 'the Jungle', and there's a bar with food, a kitchen, a pool table, ping-pong and movie nights. The hostel calls the mood 'both tranquil and upbeat', which fits: social, not a party hostel. Hostelworld lists it as wheelchair friendly. It scored 9.2/10 there when we checked, and dorms started at €13 a night.
