About
Living Lounge Hostel - Lisbon
Living Lounge Hostel sits on the second floor of a classic Baixa building, a 10-minute drive from Lisbon Zoo and within walking distance of the city's main squares and streets. The hostel is a five-minute walk from the Rua do Ouro bus stop, and guests repeatedly note the metro entrance is right next door, making it easy to explore the city without a car.
The interior mixes parquet floors, curtains, and a warm sitting area, with a shared kitchen and a leisure/TV room that doubles as a hub for meeting other travellers. Staff are on hand around the clock, and the hostel organises tours and ticket assistance. A welcome drink greets you on arrival, and the included breakfast is mentioned often in guest reviews.

In brief
What works, what to weigh
+
Strengths
4 reasons to book- Outstanding location in the historic centre — Guests consistently highlight the convenience of staying in Baixa/Chiado, with the Rua do Ouro bus stop just 150 metres away and a metro station entrance reportedly right next door. Walking around the city's main attractions is easy.
- Warm, helpful staff available around the clock — Reviewers repeatedly describe the team as friendly, kind, and always ready with local tips—including live music recommendations. The 24-hour reception is a practical plus for late arrivals or questions at night.
- Clean and comfortable rooms with practical touches — Guests praise the beds, the option of private or shared rooms, and details like charging sockets and efficient air conditioning in dorms. Lockers in each dorm bed add security.
- Lively social atmosphere without sacrificing quiet — The spacious lounge and shared kitchen create easy opportunities to meet other travellers, yet guests still found their rooms quiet and comfortable. Board games and a TV room add to the relaxed vibe.

Worth weighing
4 to weigh- No on-site parking — The hostel does not list parking, and given its central location, you'll likely rely on public transport or nearby paid options. The proximity to bus and metro helps make up for it.
- Shared bathroom for some room types — Several twin rooms share bathrooms, which may not suit everyone. Dorms and some twins have private showers, but check the specific room type before booking.
- Central location can mean street noise — Being in the heart of Baixa puts you close to nightlife and traffic, which might be audible in some rooms. Guests didn't complain, but lighter sleepers may want earplugs.
- No pets allowed — The policy is clearly no pets, so you'll need to arrange care for your animal if you're planning a trip.
