Overall Ratings & Reviews Friendly Hills Bairro Alto - Hostel

The staff here we're incredibly friendly, welcoming and helpful. We had a really great stay, great breakfast, comfortable clean rooms and a safe feeling with easy check in/check out and ability to store our bags before/after check in/out times which was so helpful. It is a busy, noisy neighborhood into the evening but absolutely perfect for easy walking and metro access in Lisbon.

Friendly staff, although the steps up were long

Very well placed, in the heart of Barrio Alto

Such a lovely staff! The location is great. We were there during a heatwave on the third floor. It was a bit loud with the windows open (but such a lovely ambiance). It was too hot to have the windows closed.

Staff were great, and breakfast was pretty good too! Great location, but I'd only advise if you are fit and able. Lots of stairs and steep roads around. Room was great, bed good and clean. The shared bathroom was ok too. Some noise but nothing some ear plugs couldn't solve. Weather was mid 20s and did not have issues with it at night. Just keep the shutter closed during the day!

Cozy and comfy hostel. Nice rooms, clean bathrooms. The staf were fantastic, and very friendly and helpful. The free breakfast was outstanding, and better than most breakfasts you would have to pay for! Overall fantastic expereince!

J'ai été agréablement surpris par cet hôtel. Bien que situé au coeur d'un quartier très animé les nuits l'hostel est calme. j'ai eu la chance d'avoir dans ma chambre des gens aussi très respectueux des autres et donc discrets. Espaces communs agréables, petit-déjeuner bon et copieux. Difficile de faire mieux !

The room and bathroom were clean. The staff were friendly but not professional. I asked about the area and restaurants, but they couldn’t answer anything. This hostel is on the street where there are restaurants and bars, so it’s so noisy until late night.

Cleanliness: 100% The cleanliness at the hostel is excellent. However, the breakfast is very limited. Instead of a buffet, two staff members will prepare a breakfast plate for you; that’s it. It’s important not to set high expectations for the breakfast. It would be great if there were closets in the rooms to store bags and hang clothes. Overall, a clean and well-maintained hostel, though improvements in the breakfast offering and room amenities like closets would be appreciated.

Fabulous! Location was bang on, walked out at night right into the hottest spot in town. The team are Irish/American and all so friendly. The breakfast was next level, really big portions and great variety made to order. Free coffee machine all day and shared kitchen space. Only downside was not enough furniture/storage space in the room but amazing value. Highly recommend

Great location to walk everywhere. It was my first time staying in a hostel/guesthouse and I was pleasantly surprised. It is very noisy at night, however, once I closed the window and turned on the fan, it did not bother me. Very nice breakfast is available in he mornings with coffee/tea machine and water. I was worried about sharing a bathroom, but they were clean and they were always open, I never had to wait.

Great spot! The breakfast is so good. No a/c though so the rooms are hot. They do give you a little fan but you have to angle it to hit you directly to be comfortable. Bathrooms are clean! Lots of stairs though.

The breakfast was fantastic, don't miss it like I did until my last day. The place is spotlessly clean. Convenient location, plenty of restaurants etc in the vicinity and close to all public transport. The room was a bit stuffy even with the fan provided. Overall a great stay, would definitely stay again.

Only come here if you want to party! The street and area is a huge party area. Bass will be thumping well into the night! It's safe, on a hill, and the staff were nice. Pretty comfortable beds, clean linens, and great staff. The breakfast is nice to have.

Very friendly staff. Clean room. Noisy street so bring earplugs. Great breakfast.

Excellent find.

I arrived in the dark and it was a little hard to find because there is no obvious signage. I had to ask for help at a local restaurant. Also - Ubers cannot access the streets around the hostel so you might have to walk and it’s challenging with cobbled streets and luggage. The location is great and breakfast is fantastic. I had a private room but it was hard to relax or sleep in because the cleaning staff were VERY loud. The other guests were older and kept to themselves. Overall good value.

Quiet clean place to sleep close to so many attractions. Staff was outstanding.

Great place with wonderful staff, particular thinks to the wonderful Frida who was always friendly & helpful, and Beta who ran the place well with a great friendly work ethic and some interesting stories. Keep up the great work everyone!
