The best option is the Saba Gare do Oriente Parking on Avenida de Berlim. It's practically adjacent to the station, so a two- or three-minute walk will take you to the main concourse. It's open 24 hours a day and is easily accessible from the Segunda Circular or the Vasco da Gama Bridge.
The parking is covered, well-signposted, and has a maximum height of 2.10 m. You can purchase parking online, making the entire access and payment process easier. Rates start at around €1.65 per hour, with more economical options for those who need to leave their car for several hours.
