Lisbon, the capital of Portugal, is not only a beautiful town with friendly people, great food, and stunning views, but it is also quite affordable. This makes it a great destination with various accommodation options to fit different budgets.

Once you’ve got your flight tickets sorted, the next step is to find a place to stay. Based on several reviews, here are the top five places we recommend for your stay in Lisbon:

– Refuge Hotel: While it may not be the most beautiful place and can be cold in the winter (extra blankets are available upon request), it has two major advantages. It’s centrally located at rua Camilo Castelo Branco nº22, providing easy access to many interesting spots in the city, and it’s very economical at just over 20 € per night.

– Goodnight Hostel: Ideal for solo travelers at 17€ a night or for pairs for less than 45€ per night. This hostel offers a quiet, warm, and comfortable stay, making it a great budget-friendly choice.

– Lisbon Poets Hostel: In a country known for literary giants like Fernando Pessoa and José Saramago, this themed hostel embraces the artistic vibe with a blend of poetry and cinema. With a spacious hall, you might get lucky and catch a flamenco guitar soiree.

– Sunset Destination Hostel: Located by the riverside of the Tagus River, it offers gorgeous views. For those who love nightlife, it hosts Saturday parties with a DJ for around 25€ for a private room.

– Mercy Hotel: For those who don’t mind splurging at 120€ a night, this hotel at Rua da Misericordia, 76, offers luxury and excellent service. Its prime location and stunning views of the Baixa and Tagus River make it especially appealing.

Lisbon has a wide range of accommodation options and price points. Typically, we opt for the more affordable choices without sacrificing quality, which is something Lisbon really excels at.
