My Story Tejo is the practical Baixa base. Visit Lisboa lists a 24-hour reception and luggage storage, and Hotels.com lists a family room for four.
It scores modestly because breakfast is extra, about €15, and there’s no pool or gym. The terminal is about 1.1 km off, a short taxi.
Check-out is 11:00. If your ship boards in the afternoon, ask them to hold your bags.
Book it if
- You want the Baixa on foot
- You need a room for four
- You want somewhere to leave bags
Look elsewhere if
- You want breakfast in the rate
- You want a pool
- You’re bringing a pet

Which quay
the Lisbon Cruise TerminalMost turnarounds use the Lisbon Cruise Terminal at Jardim do Tabaco, on Av. Infante Dom Henrique by Santa Apolónia station. My Story Tejo is about 1.1 km from our pin for it in a straight line, and about 3.7 km from Alcântara, the western quay. The port assigns the berth, so check your documents; the Lisbon cruise guide has the rest.
