Great hotel. Will be back!
This hotel is absolutely lovely. Historic and charming, well located, and with a fantastic staff. It was my boyfriend’s birthday during our stay and we arrived to find a bottle of Cava (sparkling wine) and some macarons and cake, with a nice little note. The included breakfast was just what we needed to start our days, and the area was full of great restaurants and bars, including the hotel’s own rooftop. Just out front of the hotel is a miradouro (lookout) with a great view and lots of little vendors and artists. It was noisy at times but the windows included heavy duty shutters that blocked sufficient noise. We will absolutely return to the Independente when we return to Lisbon.

A clean and busy hostel, breakfast was a nice start to the day and the staff where friendly. The rooms had a rustic charm but bunks where sandwiched together, some rooms had three story high bunks with no railings, and there were no privacy curtains or the storage boxes where not suitable for suitcases even a travel one. I found the rooms over crowded.

Very friendly hostel with a great view and a festival area just in front. Nice facilities but if you are looking for something more party-vibe id go somewhere else. Its neither quiet neither party vibe. The range of age is from 19 to 80

Excellent place to stay!
Excellent breakfast. I am so happy to meet the Mama who is such a globally connected, multilingual and funnt woman. I truly enjoyed meeting her and all the staff was helpful. Make sure to request lower bed if you have height issues, bunk beds are three story high.

They didn’t even had towels for me to rent, so I couldn’t take a shower. Also an employee told me to use a taxi and another one told me not to because they were bringing tourists to the wrong place and robbing them.

The location is fantastic. This is a funky hotel- it’s an old mansion with large rooms. Half is a hostel. Breakfast is good. They also have a small rooftop bar. Very bohemian

Location was fantastic as long as you don't mind the walk up every evening (or take a car or tram). Breakfast was decent. Can be bit noisy with people singing outaide at night but that's the price for it being in a popular area. Will definitely stay again!

This was a fun and funky hostel, but our private room was very nice. It was roomy, had a small but good bathroom and a comfortable bed. The lighting could be improved. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The breakfast buffet was very nice. The location was very convenient with many good dining options very nearby. You can pick up an Tuk-Tuk across the street. It was a 10-15 Euro ride to and from the airport on Uber.

Great location, magnificent view from rooftop bar and the square right in front of the hotel, friendly staff, clean and soundproof. While the hotel keeps historical features, the carpet is outdated, the vanity is too tiny and squeezed in the corner.

A well-located retro hotel with nice staff and clean spacious rooms. Very good breakfast and welcome drink is included!

8/10 Very good

The good: This hostel has preserved some of the grand architectural details from its former life, lending it a lot of charm. The included breakfast was good. The staff were nice, and it was clean. The small plaza across the street from the hostel has gorgeous views of Lisbon. For the less-good: I was in a dorm room, and they really ought to add privacy curtains to the bunks. When you have 8 people coming and going, a curtain really makes it more private and cuts down on the light pollution. Also, I arrived quite early in the morning, and while they were able to stow my luggage, they wouldn’t allow me to use the shower until after check-in. Guys, it’s a communal shower accessed from the hallway - I wouldn’t have to go into anyone’s room, I wouldn’t be creating extra work for anyone, I’m staying at yourhostel for several days, you have my ID and credit card… just let me wash the plane grease off, ok? What’s the issue?
