The honest take
Book the Tivoli Avenida Liberdade if you want a proper 5-star stay with pool, spa, gym and a rooftop bar over the city, for $53 more a night. Book Hotel da Baixa if you want to be inside the old town on foot, near Rossio and the Santa Justa Lift, and don't mind losing the leisure facilities. Da Baixa's 9.8 rating from over 2,500 reviews against the Tivoli's 8.8 suggests guests are getting something that feels more personal and consistent, even without a pool. The two sit only 1.3km apart but occupy different Lisbon registers: pedestrianised Baixa versus the grand boulevard of Avenida da Liberdade.
The look and the feel
Hotel da Baixa
The listing describes a boutique-scale downtown hotel built into the grid of Baixa's 18th-century reconstruction, all straight streets and tiled facades after the 1755 earthquake. Rooms lean on Nespresso machines, 4K TVs and Bluetooth speakers rather than architectural drama, and breakfast is served in a cosy dining room rather than a grand one. It reads as a well-run, contemporary conversion of an old building rather than a design statement, aimed at people who want comfort and a walkable location over spectacle.
Travellers who want to walk out the door into Baixa's grid of squares, trams and the Santa Justa Lift, and who value a consistently praised, more intimate stay.
Tivoli Avenida Liberdade Lisboa
The Tivoli sits on Avenida da Liberdade, Lisbon's answer to the Champs-Élysées, a wide 19th-century boulevard of plane trees, mosaic pavements and flagship stores. This is the flagship of the Tivoli group, a big international 5-star with a rooftop bar looking over the city's rooftops and the castle beyond, an Anantara spa, and a round outdoor pool set in garden greenery. The public rooms have the polish of a large luxury operator: marble floors, formal service, a top-floor restaurant with a serious wine list. It draws business travellers, longer-stay tourists and anyone who wants resort-style amenities inside a capital city.
Guests who want a full-service 5-star base on Lisbon's grandest avenue, with a pool, spa and rooftop bar to return to after sightseeing.
Da Baixa, cheaper by $53, gives up the spa, pool, gym and pet-friendliness that the Tivoli offers; what you get instead is a more central historic address and a much larger base of enthusiastic reviews.
The Tivoli is the more architecturally significant place to be, with its Avenida da Liberdade address, rooftop views and proper resort facilities, but da Baixa's tighter, tiled-street setting and near-perfect guest scores suggest it delivers more warmth per room.

“Good stay. But for a five stars the soundproofing is not that great.”
Hotel da Baixa guests seem happier overall, praising its location and cleanliness with only minor gripes, while Tivoli guests repeatedly flag soundproofing and value-for-price issues despite the luxury setting.

in toilet they have big big window facing other windows across the street, but the roller blind is half-transparent!!! How??? Why??? Somebody's nail behind the sink in the toilet. And if You add a bed - it is super uncomfortable - you just drop down inside. And the price... - this price is not for the type of hotel. Ov
“Good stay. But for a five stars the soundproofing is not that great. You hear the club’s sounds and the street’s sounds”
I liked the location, the concierges marcus and leonardo are extremely helpful
The price to value ratio does not feel fair. The rooms are nicely decorated but other than that nothing too fancy or special and very bad sound isolation.
