Lisbon Destination Hostel

I had the pleasure of staying at this hostel for 6 nights in January. Location is unbeatable, in the heart of Lisbon, inside a gorgeous Art Nouveau train station (convenient for catching the train to Sintra). From the start, the staff were friendly, welcoming and helpful. The hostel is very social, with a large common area with a bar/cafe, pool table, guitars, piano, hammock and kitchen, providing many opportunities to meet fellow travellers. The hostel also organises tours everyday, I only managed to do one - a Fado walk & dinner, which was really well organised - but I was the only one from the hostel on it, the other people were from other hotels. Also, as a solo female traveler, I felt extremely safe here, at night there is a member of staff on duty to buzz you in late at night. I stayed in a large private room, gorgeous design, light and airy, with a private bathroom (which was very small, even for a petite lady like me). My only recommendation would be to add more power outlets to charge devices in the common area and in the rooms. I want to thank all the superb staff for making me feel like a part of the family: Ricardo, Daniel, Renata, Catarina, Hugo, the cook and a lady with a fringe (whom I can't recall her name). I look back on my time in Lisbon with fond memories, all centred around the atmosphere and advice given by you all. X

If you are lucky enough to visit Lisbon, then do not hesitate to stay here! Fantastic location-in the heart and pulse of the city! Really good vibe! Set up to make your visit to Lisbon as if you were amongst friends. The weekends here are really fun!

The Hostel is very clean. The location is perfect. Close to everything. Metro and sights. The train to Sintra is in the same building. There are many supermarkets and restaurants nearby. However, the Hostel is a little far from the airport.

Staff was very friendly. Their was music playing and beer pong until quiet time, where we were moved to the adjacent bar so we didn’t disturb the rest of the hostel. We booked a private room. Our room was clean and had towels for us to use. Wonderful atmosphere with a large common space. Breakfast was plentiful with cereal, toast, pancakes, coffee, juice, yogurt, etc.

I had an amazing time at the hostel. It wasn't the first time I stayed at the hostel, and I can't wait to come over again. Everyone working at the hostel really is super caring, they're there for you 24/7. They are super sweet, fun and really make sure you've got the best time. Also the other guests were so nice, it's a great mix of people. It's a great place to relax, but at the same time a great place to meet people, for me as a single traveler something I really appreciate. I really made friends for life, had the best time and hope to come back soon. Big shout out to all the workers, thank you so much for everything! Ps. Love the breakfast, sangria and the showers!
