I had walked inside to look at the gift shop on the left and saw the Starbucks on the right, but never saw any indication of a train station there, either. Once I KNEW that it was the train station, I looked harder for a sign, and it was up the elevator from the front of the building. Tickets are at the top of the double elevator and should have been easy to get, but I had to try 3 different machines to get it to work. The machine will encourage you to get a round trip, and know that the round trip ticket is all on one ticket. You won't be issued 2 tickets. The ticket is needed to get in and out of the stations, so make sure to hang onto it until after you've left your final destination. The place is super clean...one of the cleanest train stations I have been in. I wanted this review out here in case someone needed it. I hope it helps folks to avoid the couple of hiccups I had there.

Not a huge station but perfectly adequate for commuters and tourists like me leaving Lisbon for…read moreother spots in Portugal. Today's day trip was to Sintra. Bonus for me, the station has a few dozen luggage lockers. Easy to operate and now I don't have to bring my roll aboard suitcase with me all day today! Trains to Sintra are every half hour or so and they take about 40 minutes to get to the destination. The station has a couple of vending machines and a small coffee shop while you wait for your train. Automated ticket vending machines are in Portuguese and English, accepting coins, notes and cards. I was able to quickly purchase my round trip ticket. A quick swipe at the turnstile and I boarded. A couple of points off because the lockers only accept coins and not notes. The cashier at the ticketing window not only would not make change, she would not even tell me where I could get change. (There's a ginginja shop at the bottom of the stairs and I bought a quick shot for €1.45 so now I have change.) If there is direct access to the Rossio metro station, they need to improve their signage. I was only able to get to it by leaving the station, crossing the street and then finding the stairs at street level to access the metro. [Review 16560 overall - 82 in Portugal - 70 of 2022.]

I arrived at Oriente Train Station via the metro/underground to catch a train. Once you exit the…read moremetro/underground, the signage to enter Oriente is pretty poor, so look for very small train icons pointing with arrows. You essentially have to go up about three levels to get to Oriente. Once there, there are ticket machines and a ticket booth. Although I had tickets already, I had a question and the gentleman was very nice and informative (he spoke limited English). I recommend waiting in the main concurse (open air) rather than going to the platform. Whiles there's a canopy over the tracks, it can be quite bright and there's not a lot of room to sit. Another advantage of waiting on the main concourse is there's a little cafe and vending machines. The cafe has a few tables and sells drinks, coffee, sandwiches, and desserts. The cafe only accepts cash. Be ready to deal with an attendant who could be friendlier. Overall, decent train station but it needs better signage, as it lacks a large screen with all upcoming arrivals and departures. You also can't hear announcements very well. Pro Tip: If you want to grab drinks and food for the train, there's a supermarket inside the mall across the street.

This is a very old station and comes with that some challenges, such as escalators and elevators that do not work, poor signage, kiosks out of order, very grimy restrooms, and uneven stone flooring that makes rolling bags or heels challenging (and loud :-)). The signage and placement of the only available help desk at one far end was a bit challenging. We did love the roof architecture on the top level as you wait for your train to arrive.

For the most part, the station has been perfect for our various in-town excursions. Perhaps a bit for attention to cleanliness would do it some good. Lately, there's been water puddling-up at one of the entrances along Av. Liberdade, with no caution signage, which could easily lead to slips/falls. Thus, I'm taking my review down a notch. Otherwise, all is good at Metro Rossio.

This is the metro station. It is completely separate from the train station…read more Located in between the actual Rossio Square and Praça da Figueira, Rossio is located on the Green line of the Lisbon metro. The station is handicapped accessible with escalators and elevators between the street level and the platform level. The station has two tracks that go through the center and therefore, there are two side platforms. There is step-free access and free transfer between the two platforms. If there is a below-ground transfer to the Estação do Rossio for regional trains, I couldn't find it. Upstairs to the street, walk across the plaza, into the station. Platforms are clean and there is a sign indicating how long until the next train is due to arrive. Rossio is between Martim Moniz (toward Telheiras) and Baixa-Chiado (toward Cais do Sodré).

It was already difficult because we don't speak the language, assuming Portuguese maybe easy to understand because i speak Spanish, we figure it should be fine. My advise, be prepared for the unexpected, when we arrived at the train station few shops were open for service at 11am. The 1st floor is the only area that has a sibgle 27" that is abiut to go. This monitor displays can barely be seen and the information is not updated very often. The area near the supermarket had a ticket booth, in which they spoke English and they directed me to plataform #4. The monitor sadly only gives you updates within 30 mins of your train departure, which makes no sense. A few wide guys are always trying to peddle their services to act as translator or to guide you to your train, others just outright ask you for money as they see you as a target because you carry luggage and backpack. As a New Yorker, i can smell the bullshit from a mile a way and i can spot trouble makers from my daily travels on the MTA in NYC. So of course i got approach and i didnt fall for it but others were not so lucky. Just from speaking out loud, these people can spot Americans- so becareful. The entire station has a police officer at the entrance but his presence was not convincing as it did not detered the homeless or trouble makers. Anyways my train was late 20mins, no updates on the boards. The most hilarious part is that when it finally showed up at 2:35pm, the one board that tells you the train pulling into the station still had the last train that had departed 5 mins ago on display... imagine the people that just got to the station and got in the wrong train.. No way to describe it but- real shit hile station that makes the MTA subway system a first class system in terms of information access. The train itself was crowded, only 1 toilet working, storing luggage on the overhead compartment is difficult unless you are carrying a small luggage. The air conditioner was barely working, at times it would stop and it got really warm on there and when you stepped seated for almost 3.5 hrs, it really sucks. I dont think you need to know anymore, other than be prepared for a very poor experience. By the way, there is assigned seats so dont just grab any empty seat because they will ask you to move if your tickets dont match your assigned seats. By the way the bathroom are on the 2nd floor and you have to pay € 0.50 to use them, by the way a lot more cleaner than the restroom in the train.
