Hostelworld says
The staff of the Lisboa Central Hostel have an extremely high rating on Hostelworld, no doubt due to their friendliness and vast knowledge of Lisbon. They also have free milkshakes on Mondays and free soup on chosen days and one Hostelworld user said the free breakfast of fruit pancakes was the ?icing on the cake? of a ?faultless? stay. We like that they offer lots of little extras to their guests, from cheap sangria and beer to pub crawls and free popcorn on movie nights.

Everyone I met here (both staff and other guests) were so kind and welcoming! Breakfast had a good selection, and they had so many social events for guests! I’m a bit bummed I wasn’t staying on a Friday for their sangria night. I did participate in the morning Alfama walking tour and the pub crawl and both of them were a great experience.

This hostel was so wonderful. The beds were so comfortable and the AC worked great. There are also fans by the bed. There was a lot of room to set my stuff as well. This hostel was so impeccably clean, I can’t believe how spotless the kitchen was. The staff was so sweet and accommodating. Also, they frequently cook free meals. One night while I was there the owner made chickpea soup, it was so so good. I really loved this hostel and it’s right in the center of Lisbon. Would love to stay here again! I really

A nice hostel and reasonable for what you pay! Lots of activities and the breakfast pancakes are delicious. They have free soup or other food everyday. I found the layout of the hostel quite awkward and it made it hard to socialise. It didn’t feel very ventilated. Most of the staff were lovely, however the older woman who meant well came across as a bit bossy when I was cooking and around the place. I also wish the quilts had fresh covers rather than just sheets. Overall not bad.

Lisboa Central Hostel says
We're a small hostel that likes to treat every guest as part of our family. The Portuguese are known for their hospitality so we treat them according to Portuguese traditions, call them by their names and try to make them feel at home. I think that someone that's travelling likes to feel welcomed and likes to find a home-like atmosphere that makes them feel comfortable. We have daily activities to encourage interaction amongst the guests - things like sangria happy hour to some liquor, wine and Portuguese food tastings, movie nights, milkshakes for the hot days, hot drinks for the cooler days, and cupcakes and soups. Plus there's movies, cards, video games and pub crawls. It's pretty entertaining around here.
We're in Marques de Pombal, the centre of the city, a few minutes away from downtown and the historic area, and a short bus ride from Belem and metro trip from Nation's Park. When people ask me what they should do here, I usually say that Lisbon is a city for walkers - its typical neighbourhoods are inviting for long walks and every day you discover something new.
