Lisbon Lounge Hostel – Portugal

What:
According to the users of the popular Hostel World booking engine, the Lisbon Lounge Hostel is the single best hostel in the entire world. This place has a friendly staff (the chef even offers free neighborhood tours) as well as clean rooms and free internet access. There’s also a library, a guest kitchen and a cozy common room.

Where:
Central Lisbon, close to Praça Comércio.

Our take:
If hundreds of Hostel World users love the Lisbon Lounge Hostel who are we to disagree? Especially when nightly per person rates start at around €25 and include more-than-decent breakfast.

Note that the Lisbon Lounge is more than a party hostel. There are lots of old fogies (eg. those older than 30) and even some families who stay here too. However, the walls are not super sound proof and guests do tend to hang out in the common room until late; if you are a very light sleeper consider bringing ear plugs.
