Oasis Backpackers Mansion Lisboa

Welcome to one of Europe's best hostels, in the heart of the Lisbon's funkiest neighbourhood-a true travellers' paradise, with a free welcome drink and weekly parties!

You're about to discover the new generation of contemporary styled backpackers. This is a place designed for the modern-day global traveller. Travellers who not only want refuge from the vigour of the road and good insider tips, but travellers who also want to have fun and high pressured showers - someone just like you.

What's free at our hostel: breakfast, 24hr ADSL Internet access, welcome drink, CD/DVD burning, coffee and tea, Wi-Fi connection, travel tips, night tours, insiders' travel guide to Lisboa, sheets, library, loads of ambience and general good cheer.

You'll find our backpackers' mansion perched on the 'Miradouro do Santa Catarina' overlooking the river and the bridge Ponte 25 de Abril. Alive with fluttering laundry, regal buildings and balcony gossip, Santa Catarina is smack in the middle of Lisbon's cultural and entertainment life. The adjacent neighborhood of Chiado is perfect for an afternoon of shopping or just loitering in cafes.

At night, a few steps from our front door, the famous 'Bairro Alto' comes to life. The storefronts that were shuttered before have burst open, revealing an endless array of small bars, the decoration of which seems to have been left to young art students and fashion designers. Add plastic cups and no covers and you have one of Europe's hottest and cheapest nightspots.

Whether you're exploring monuments to colonial power in Belem, hiking through the historic Alfama, tracking down the melancholic sighs of Fado, making your way to Sintra or heading off to the beach for the day, our staff, well-versed in the art of travel, can offer tips and advice on how best to navigate the city.

We also keep you connected with free and incredibly fast ADSL internet, Wi-Fi access, computers with memory card readers and CD/DVD burning facilities, phone cards and available phone for keeping in contact with the family.

When the museums close and the sun sets, unwind with us at the bar in the patio garden. Here you can enjoy our famous-yet-economical home-cooked dinners every night, grill some meat (or veggies) on our BBQ or just take our elevator up and down all night.

If you just want to stay in and take a break from travelling, we can help with high pressured showers, nine inches of mattress heaven, clean dorms, gourmet cooking facilities, Portuguese classes, a high-brow library, laundry service (we even fold your clothes) and cult cocktail hour where you can trade travel tales over Singapore Slings and some tunes.

If it's surf you're after, we have agreements with the best surf schools in the country, where you can rent a board and surf with the pros all day long!

We've got free night tours with our Bairro Alto expert who'll take you to the best bars in town, every night except Monday and Friday.

Take a day trip with our X-van from the beach and palace in Sintra to the best homemade Italian ice creams in Cascais.

Welcome to state-of-the-art facilities, superior comfort, clean bathrooms and a staff well-versed in the art of backpacking. Welcome to Oasis Backpackers' Mansion Lisboa!
