I liked that each bed has a curtain for privacy, a place to put the bag, a rack for clothes and a locker to lock. There was always a free and private shower, which means you shower and get dressed inside, not in a public space. The breakfast was very satisfying, including pancakes prepared on the spot, coffee machine, tea, toaster, microwave. I would be happy for a cucumber and tomato. Eat in a common space so that interaction is created between the different people and acquaintances. In the evening, there is usually a free soup, sometimes also a Spanish tapas evening. Rooms with shared TV and Netflix. The location is excellent right on the Marquis Pombal for walking and public transport.

Friendly and comfortable hostel with good metro links into the town centre. The management provided many free social events and worked hard to create a welcoming atmosphere. Breakfast offered a pleasant chance to meet other hostellers and make friends. The pancakes were a bonus!

I had a good stay at this hostel, but preferred other places I stayed in Lisbon for the same price. This one was located on a relatively quiet street and in a newer building but didn't feel that warm and inviting to me. The neighborhood is more high end shops, less street activity and life. I preferred staying in Barrio Alto even though it's up the hill. The room was spacious and they do have lockers with keys for free. Breakfast provided could be improved, especially since other hostels I stayed in Lisbon had much better quality breakfast.

Since this was my first time staying at a hostel, I didn't know what to expect, but I wasn't disappointed. I like how clean and neat the place was kept. The rooms although with multiple beds sharing the degree of privacy... that I loved it!

AMAZING! honestly so cool. Free breakfast, free tapas (the latter dependent on the day), free walking tours... The hostel has so much to offer. They storedy luggage the day before and the day I checked out. So close to all bus routes (I took a bus from the airport) and everything is walkable! I met some lovely ladies in this place, and people are super friendly. So many seniors were staying at the time and I loved hearing their travel stories. Recommended!

Do not open the door 108
Great staff, kind and very gentle, they helped me with any necessity I had. Unfortunately couldn’t sleep at all, due to the fact that in the room 108 there was a guy who was living there and snoring hard. I asked the receptionist to be moved but he said there were no beds available which I seriously doubt it.

Response from Reception on 23 Apr 2022
Hi, i am not sure if you reviewed the correct property because we don't have any room 108. When you book a dorm room there's always a chance someone would snore. It's something we can't control. But we give ear plugs at reception if you need. Also if there were beds available at the time i am sure we would move you without any problem.

A nice property in central Lisbon
Let's see here. First the bad: the common areas are compact with limited space to move around and can be rather quite noisy at times. Now the good: the staff are all friendly and helpful. The room I stayed in was spacious, clean, and quiet. Having Netflix to watch in a common room was a huge bonus. Breakfast is quite good and the complimentary soup and tapas at night are excellent. The compact nature of the common areas makes it easy to meet others and socialize. Overall, I am pleased with my stay at Lisboa Central Hostel and recommend the property. Oh, and here's a tip: don't bother reserving independent and likely pricey excursions on your own before you arrive to Lisbon. You can plan likely much more affordable day trips (together with other guests you'll meet) to areas such as Cabo da Roca and Sintra at the hostel very easily with the assistance of the helpful staff.

Super welcoming Hostel
Everyone at Lisboa Central Hostel was super welcoming and they provided lots of advice for our touring! We loved chatting with Tiago. We were also able to leave a load of laundry to be done while we were out and it was only 8 euros per load. There were activities planned for each day (Milkshake Monday, Movie night, etc.) and the hotel provided breakfast and always had sandwiches and soup out. This was our first time staying in a hostel and Lisboa Central Hostel made it a great experience. We would stay here again.

Just stay here if you're in Lisbon!
Super terrific and amazing hostel. The staff are all very friendly, kind and personable people. The hostel is clean. Considerate little touches - like a universally plug socket (so you don't need a plug convertor) with two 5A USB ports at your bedside - made my stay that much more pleasant. If I return to visit Lisbon some day then I will certainly stay here. Keep up the great work & great wishes!

I was there on a small holiday vacation. The hostel ia situated adjacent to Marque de pombal square. Locality is crowded with tourists. I stayed in room no 113 and my bed was no 5. To be honest the best bed ever slept. It make you feel home. I lied on the bed and it made me sleep in seconds. Room had 6 beds, all occupied. Lockers were there. The only problem was that we didint had a trunk to keep our things locked. Usually we see that under bed in other hostels. Hostel management was very friendly. Cleaniness was good. Kitchen was great. There was one good kitchen fully equipped with all shorts of kitchen items required to cook food. 2 living room and one small outdoor area for tea coffee. Bathrooms were clean.only one major problem they had was that if you wanted to go out of the room via gallery you could not come out without key. I was suffocating sometime remembering that if I loose my ke in my room , I might get trapped in gallery. How ever gallery gate opened at reception but sometime there was no one at the reception. They should really remove that lock. Because in an event of fire it will actually malfunction and everyone inside may get locked. These incidents are common and I dont know why management has ignored this. Overall chckin was good, checkout was good. Cheap and best in lisbon. Worth staying again and again.

Great place
This was definitely one of the better hostels I've stayed in. The staff was tremendously friendly and accommodating. They gave a tour of the facilities and were helpful in giving recommendations around the city. The room was clean and big. My only suggestion would be to have bigger lockers that could comfortably fit back packs or a carry on.
