The Lisboa Central Hostel has a convenient location near public transportation, dining, and shopping along posh Avenida da Liberdade. The two-pearl property is geared toward backpackers and a younger crowd who don't mind sharing dorms and bathrooms. However, its private rooms are nice enough for anyone on a budget. The hostel has seven units with bright and stylish decor, but they all lack AC. Guests get a lot for what they pay for here, with a plentiful lineup of features. Freebies include breakfast and rotating daily extras -- with everything from milkshakes to Portuguese soup on offer -- plus group activities, guided tours, and Wi-Fi throughout. Travelers looking to be closer to the nightlife in Bairro Alto should check out the Lookout Lisbon Hostel.

The Home Lisbon Hostel has 24 rooms that live up to the hostel's name. Conveniently located in the popular Baixa-Chiado district, the two-pearl hostel is less than a 10-minute walk to Praca do Comercio and Alfama, major tourist destinations in town. Bright dormitory-style rooms are furnished with well-sized bunkbeds, and clean communal bathrooms are spacious, if far from some rooms. Dinners cooked and served nightly by the owner's mother are renowned and add to the hostel's familial vibe. An on-site bar/lounge, outdoor patio, and living room also provide a homey atmosphere. Nearby hostels like Lisbon Destination Hostel inside Rossio Station offer more modern and private rooms at similar prices, but there's a lot more charm at Home Lisbon.

The 109-room HF Fenix Music is a good mid-range option that draws a hip, young crowd due to its conceptual music theme. A beautiful rooftop pool and panoramic city views are a big draw, and modern rooms have air-conditioning and high-tech sound systems, but en-suite bathrooms aren't the most private. The hotel is located near the Marques de Pombal Metro stop, putting Lisbon’s major attractions within easy reach. However, both the lively atmosphere and busy surroundings can make for a noisy experience. Although families are welcome at the Fenix Music, the HF Fenix Garden next door could be a quieter and less expensive option. Guests might also compare rates with the nearby Hotel Expo Astoria, which has slightly larger and more minimalist rooms plus a fitness center, but no pool.

The Rossio Garden Hotel is a three-pearl boutique property within walking distance of many of Lisbon's historic and cultural attractions. Renovated in 2014, interiors include murals with black-and-white illustrations of historic Lisbon by Portuguese designer John Rolo. The contemporary property has 56 clean and pleasant rooms, many with city views, but they lack tea/coffee facilities and mini-fridges. The property serves breakfast for a fee in either a small dining room or on a covered rooftop. Guests complain about the lack of a bar and say the Wi-Fi, which is free, is not dependable. For a younger vibe and a cheaper price, travelers may prefer Hotel Gat Rossio, which offers free breakfast -- but its rooms can be smaller.
