About

Secret Patio Lisbon Hostel

Secret Patio Lisbon Hostel sits in a narrow lane off the busy streets of central Lisbon, a short stroll from Time Out Market and close to the famous 28 tram route. Housed in a classic Lisbon building, it blends hostel-style sociability with the polish of a 3-star hotel, offering both shared dorms and private rooms.

The property centres on a sunny patio and a rooftop terrace with a swimming pool, where guests gather in the evenings. A shared kitchen helps keep meal costs down, and vending machines cover late-night snacks. The team at the 24-hour reception is repeatedly praised for going out of their way to help.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Mixed overall rating — The property sits at 7.7/10 from 322 reviews, with category scores like Rooms and Service at 8, but Value at 7.7 and General at 7.7 – below the area average of 9.7.
  • Shared bathrooms in some rooms — Several room types, including some private doubles, come with shared bathroom facilities – worth checking before booking if en-suite is a priority.
  • No pets allowed — If you're travelling with a pet, this isn't the place – the policy is a hard no.
  • Kitchen can get busy in the mornings — One guest noted that the shared kitchen gets crowded at breakfast time, so you may need to plan around peak hours.

“Spotless hotel, incredibly warm reception staff, and a spacious air-conditioned room with a great shared shower. Location is perfect, just a short walk to Miradouro Sao Pedro de Alcantara. The rooftop bar is a bonus.”
