Boavista 83 Hostel Lisbon

Generally it's a good hotel, providing you best location in Lisbon and the room and facilities are quite new and in good quality. But the only thing I am not satisfied is they only provide you one towel even you stayed 4 nights. Extra one charges you 3 Euro which is hard to accept.

Surprisingly clean and comfy. Walkable to transport links.

Hostel temiz, sakin Old Town’a yürüme mesafesinde idi. Personel güler yüzlü ve ilgililer. Minik bir mutfak olsa daha da iyi olabilir. Kettle dışında bir olanak mevcut değil.

I originally wanted to book a female-only dorm, but it was already sold out. I really liked the hostel and the location, so before booking I called the reception to ask about it. I was told that if a female-only room became available they could place me there, and if not, they would put me in a mixed dorm with more female guests. I also mentioned this again during check-in. But in the end I was placed in a room with five men and no other female guests at all. As a solo female traveler, this honestly made me feel really uncomfortable and anxious the whole night. What made the experience worse was the attitude of the male staff member working at night, a man with long curly hair. I was already very nervous and just politely asked whether there were any other girls staying in the room, but he looked annoyed and kept saying “but you booked a mixed dorm” instead of actually answering my question. I understand what a mixed dorm is, but after being given completely different expectations before arrival, the whole situation made me feel very unsafe and uncared for. I will never recommend this hostel to others. Really made me so disappointed.

An Absolute Gem! Exceeded All Expectations Rating: ★★★★★ (5/5) Stay Details: Solo Trip, several Nights, City View Room Review: The location is perfect—just a 5-minute walk from the main subway station and within easy walking distance of all the major attractions. Despite the central location, our room was incredibly quiet and peaceful. The room itself was spotlessly clean, modern, and surprisingly spacious. The bed was like sleeping on a cloud, and the blackout curtains ensured we slept in every morning. A special shout-out to the housekeeping team for their attention to detail. The staff were the true stars of the show. The concierge, gave us brilliant meal recommendations. Everyone at the front desk was friendly and efficient. Highly recommended!

It was clean. Front desk workers were helpful and welcoming. The beds are somewhat hard, I had trouble syaying asleep but some might prefer these mattresses. The under bed lockers are terribly designed: the frontpiece gets pulled up so you cannot see into the locker and you have to lay on the floor to put your belongings in and out. Their height is similar to under an airplane seat so your overhead baggage with hard shell case likely won't fit into it. It does take your own lock so that's a plus. There is no kitchen; there is offered in April 2026 up to 11 euro breakfasts. In the lobby they offer hotwater via a machine but no mugs to use. If the hostel is reading this my recommendation is to have the lockers open differently so accessing belongings is easy. I only stayed one night, for longer stay I'd definitely like easier lockers.

Reception was very friendly and check-in/ out/ luggage storage processes were smooth! They provide towels, soap, and two power sockets by the bed. The place was extremely clean too! Easily the best hostel I've stayed at in Europe. Only downside is that there isn't a kitchen, but if you don't cook, all's good!
