It is a question that has always plagued the creative mind: Does life reflect art or does art reflect life? Living Lounge, Lisbon's newest hostel, takes hostel art and traveling life to a whole new level. Each double, single and dorm room at the hostel is a unique work of art, having been individually designed by local artists to reflect different elements of Lisbon's rich culture. Although every room is different, they have all been crafted with the same goal in mind: providing our guests with supreme comfort, security and style during their stay. Our hostel features a luxurious and spacious downstairs lounge area, providing the perfect place to sip a drink, listen to music and meet people from around the world. Upstairs we have a peaceful indoor garden room, a lovely place to bring a book and relax. Our guests are welcome to use our free WiFi internet, and our friendly staff can provide you with free maps and any tourist info you might need. Living Lounge, opened in July 2008, is the newest project from the same group who own and operate the Lisbon Lounge Hostel, recently named the world's best boutique hostel in The Times. With Living Lounge, we bring you the same high standards of quality and design but with an exciting new artistic concept. Living Lounge is located in the heart of Lisbon's tourist centre, right on the border between the ritzy Chiado district and the historic Baixa. The Baixa-Chiado metro station is literally right across the street, and it is only a quick train ride to Lisbon's nearest beaches or a short stumble to Lisbon's best nightlife area - the Bairro Alto. With piece-of-cake public transport access, you'll have no problem finding us. We look forward to providing you with an unforgettable stay in Lisbon.

This was one of the coolest hostels I've ever stayed in. Great location, great facility, and the theme rooms were creative, clean and modern. I know where I'll be staying next time I'm in Lisbon, no question.

Quite possible the best hostel I've ever stayed in! Not only full of quirky character, but always spotlessly clean and the staff are super friendly. My only complaint would be the noise levels (which, of course, are not the fault of the hostel). Still, earplugs are always a hosteller's best...

Great location, fabulous decore and great atmosphere. They have dinner here every night - a wonderful way to meet people and socialise. The place was spic and span - literally not a speck of dust, or dirt. Immaculate - largely due to the brilliant ladies who scub the place everyday....

Too noisy because of the doors which are not easly to be closed. It would be easy to ameliorate this inconvenient. But we are very satisfied for the rest.
