Guest Reviews
- José Luis (7/5): -
- CAROLINA (7/5): - Tem muitos ambientes na acomodação e é confortável.
- Marianne (7/5): Lively, pit stop hostel, - We had a great welcome from Bruno. The location was great. We had a double room with private shower. Bruno did his very best to be helpful. Unfortunately there is a noisy bar below open till 2am. Luckily Bruno gave us earplugs. Its a crazy bust part of town at night generally which is not the hostels fault. Cascais is very expensive so for that price there is not much choice. I was on a 3 day course so only needed a bed. The lounge, kitchen and terrace were great. Overall ok, Bruno was a star helping with a few problems we had. Very noisy part of town, should be dealt with by the council or police as its a lovely place spoilt by a few larger louts.
- Rilee (6/5): IT WAS RELENTLESSLY LOUD - RIGHT ABOVE A BAR. - This is centralized in a great location if your looking access to the beach, bars and lots of restaurant. But it is located right above a bar so beware if you booking on weekends or holidays. IT WAS VERY LOUD! We had a hard time sleeping from the constant buzz of outside the window. There is no sound proofing what’s so ever. But they’re give your earplugs, we don’t know why, until we knew why. And the facilities were very comfortable. Nice couch area and an easy kitchen to navigate. Very loud, the hum from the outside was nonstop till about 4 am. The bedding was comfortable but the mattress was lopsided and questionable for two people. It was quite pricy for the quality, but I guess the location can justify what the quietness did not give.
- Luisa Paulo (9/5): Recepção é bom o quarto é que está com muito humidade - Recepção Os quarto
- Clerigo (5/5): - A localização em relação à praia é excelente Deveria ser divulgada a questão das festas. Para quem viaja em família não é muito agradável ter barulho até às duas da manhã. Também acho que as fotografias divulgadas no Booking não correspondem à realidade. Enganam um pouco
- Annalisa (5/5): -
- peadar (7/5): -
- ZE YA (10/5): 如果我再回到卡斯卡伊斯,我还会选择住在这里。 - 不提供早餐,但因为地点非常方便和有厨房,所以可以去供应早餐的饭店吃、也可以自己做早餐。
每次坐在阳台上边享用早餐或晚餐、边欣赏楼下人来人往的街景和不远处大海里的船只,这种写意和放松是卡斯卡伊斯假期的锦上添花、难以忘怀。
- Myrthe (7/5): Prima - Prima kamer, voor een nacht verblijven. Het raam was kapot en was daardoor niet bruikbaar. En kwam een ontzettend vieze geur uit de badkamer.
- Rosa (8/5): -
- Ermelinda (6/5): -
- Mohammad Siddique (8/5): -
- Maria José (8/5): Bon lloc per passar la nit de cap d'any. - La ubicació i la calidesa del personal del hostel que han estat molt acollidors i amables. Les instal·lacions comuns, cuina i menjador. Hi havia molt soroll del bar musical de sota del hostel.
- Medeiros (10/5): -
- Karen (9/5): - El Hostel está super bien ubicado y es cómodo. Los dos chicos que trabajan ahí son muy simpáticos y amables. Tenían un problema con el agua caliente en las duchas por lo que salía apenas tibia o fria.
Tal como dicen varios comentarios hay bares debajo con lo que es bastante ruidoso afuera. Haya o no haya gente los bares ponen música a todo volumen hasta las 3 am.
- Elke (10/5): Great location and view - The location is great! Beautiful Christmas lighting and market. Just across the road. Staff super friendly and great vibe. I couldn't have chosen a better location. It does get loud obviously with it being surrounded by pubs and party ppl.
There was a live band on the balcony and it was great. Ear plugs are available.
- Silke (5/5): - Gordijnen bij het onderste stapelbed. Er is een gezellige sociale ruimte en een mooi dakterras. Er is maar één badkamer die je deelt met alle vrouwen en voor de mannen is er ook één. De badkamer was niet schoon en rook ook niet aangenaam.
- Etiandra Luis (4/5): -
- Monique (8/5): Great price per location - Very well located. Great price per stay. A bit noisy, but because it is in a bar area. The bad side of the good side. Could have a small desk anywhere around.
- claire (7/5): Séjour très agréable. A recommander- sauf si on ne supporte pas le bruit (clairement à éviter). - Situation géographique exceptionnelle.
Personnel agréable, très serviable., de bons conseils et des efforts pour rendre le séjour agréable.
Cuisine et terrasse.
transports en commun à proximité. Commerces, restaurants. Peut etre bruyant (il faut le savoir).
Odeur salle de bain. Serviettes de bain auraient été bienvenues, ainsi qu un peu plus de propreté pour la cuisine (pas de serviette pour s essuyer les mains mais un torchon, le meme pendant 4 jours, et aucun papier-sopalin, éponge usée, etc).
- Yann (5/5): - What I liked the most was the facilities — the kitchen and the balcony are both spacious and great places to chill. The bathrooms are big and clean, and the location is also quite good. The staff are really nice and helpful! What I didn’t like so much is that the room was way too small for 8 people — it felt a bit insane. And at night, it can get noisy because the bar downstairs plays loud music.
- Vesa-Veikko (7/5): -
- Aaldriks (7/5): -
- Sophia (8/5): - Close to centre and 10 min walk to train and bus The bathroom area could do with more holding space for clothes and products and a thorough clean around shower edges

- Eugeniusz (8/5): -
- Gomes (8/5): -
- Tina (6/5): - Personalen, charmigt Väldigt lyhört

- Jürg (8/5): -
- Rairan (9/5): -
- Miguel (7/5): -
- Duarte (2/5): - A nível de Barulho toda a noite. Beliches muito baixos
- Charlotte (5/5): Bof - Bon emplacement Pas de stationnement
Extrêmement bruyant !!! Avec 3 bar aux pieds de l’hôtel et un bar dans l’hôtel tout ça musique à fond
Impossible de dormir malgres les bouchons d’oreilles fournis.
Beaucoups d’odeur de la salle de bain et des toilettes !!
- Maria Rosa (6/5): - Désolé personne très sympa me etableciment passable Pour une nuit ca va
- Lima (6/5): -
- Andrea (7/5): Correcto para 1 día - Céntrico Ruidoso
- Mona (7/5): - Leider fand eine private Feier statt, weshalb man dann die gemeinsamen Räume nicht wirklich nutzen konnte
- Francesco (4/5): - La terrazza la sera diventava un bar aperto a chiunque
Le persone entravano e occupavano gli spazi comuni
Con eccessivo rumore fino a tarda notte
- Sandra (10/5): -
- Dmitriy (10/5): -
- Angel (10/5): Muy agradable. - La gentileza de las personas que atienden el hostel, el ambiente y la libertad de movimientos.
Por supuesto la ubicación
- Laura (5/5): - Très Bruyant, pas isolé, les nuits les week-end sont très bruyante car il y a des bars en dessous de l’hostel qui mettent de la musiques très forte
- Brannon (7/5): -
- del Fueyo (5/5): Sin agua caliente por la mañana - Fuimos a pasar una noche. Al ducharnos al llegar bien, pero al ir a ducharnos por la mañana no tuvimos agua caliente. Hable con el chico de recepción y debía haber un problema con la caldera.
- Cianfrini (7/5): - Posizione centralissima! Pulizia non ottimale
- Catia (6/5): Agradável pela simpatia do staff e ambiente do hostel mas é necessário avaliar as canalizações do edifício. - A centralidade! O cheiro a esgoto
- Joshua (6/5): -
- cisneiros e faria (4/5): - - Location
- Bed
- Balcony - 2 bathrooms for all the people was too short - there were times when I couldn't go to the toillet and when I wanted to take a shower and there were all the time girls putting makeup.... There could be a rule telling them to do that in the toillet that had no shower
- There was only 1 fridge for all Guests+ STAFF - I barely had space to put 4 yogurts, nothing more
- The bedroom had too many bunkbeds for the space - the A/C had to be working day and night to renovate the air
- Nayara (10/5): -
- Sara (6/5): -
- Mar (4/5): - Un alojamiento bastante malo para el precio que tiene. Aún no entiendo cómo puede tener esa valoración.
Tiene una terraza común que está bastante bien Las habitaciones pequeñas, literas que se mueven un montón y que parece que se vayan a romper. No tienes espacio para poder dejar tus cosas. Hay un pequeño cajón bajo de la cama pero no cabe ni la mochila de mano típica que te dejan subir al avión bajo el asiento. Las literas superiores no tienen intimidad.
El baño hay dos para todas las habitaciones de la planta y cada uno de ellos tiene ducha y wc en el mismo lugar de manera que si alguien está duchándose no puedes utilizarlo. Además uno de ellos no tiene pestillo con lo cual lo hace casi inservible.
Está en una zona céntrica encima de bares y locales de manera que hay ruido, ya en recepción te ofrecen coger tapones (eso lo dice todo…) y la noche que me aloje ellos tenían música en directo en la terraza lo cual hacía que hubiese aún más ruido hasta pasada la media noche. Además al “concierto” podía venir gente de fuera que podía utilizar nuestros baños de manera que a la mañana siguiente estaban súper sucios y eran las 10 y aún no se habían limpiado.
Uno de los peores hostels en los que he estado
- Ana Luíza (10/5): Excepcional!! - A localização é perfeita! Bem no centro de Cascais e da pra ir a pé para todos os lados! A dona do Hostel é uma QUERIDA! Me recepcionou muitissimo bem, muito solicita e sorridente! A cama beliche é bem instavel, então quando o seu “vizinho” mexe a cama balança e faz barulho.
- Deborah (1/5): Horrible à fuir - Très bruyant (juste au-dessus d’un bar) impossible de dormir même avec des boules quiès. Lit inconfortable. Odeurs de canalisations qui remontent dans la chambre.
- António Pedro (8/5): -
- William (10/5): Exceptional -
- Amelia (5/5): Good location but very loud and average facilities - It was a great location and friendly lady at reception. The bathroom didn’t lock, not much space in the room and both nights there was really loud music from the terrace as they were being rented out for 18th birthdays - wish I was warned about this or got a discounted price!
- Gevorgyan (6/5): Pleasant -
- Hugo (8/5): Very good - Do staff do hostel impecável e atenciosos a toda hora
- Herwig (7/5): Central but noisy - Very centrally located, nice terrace, kitchen and living room where you felt like hanging out. Extremely noisy till 2 or 3 am since right above bars.
- Victoria (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was amazing! The toilets, the reception, the bar, the view, the room, the location! :)
- Nuttaya (9/5): If you like a good location and it‘s not far from the sea. - There are several bathrooms.Sitting area and small bar Very loud music noise from the shop in the mall.
- Veronica (10/5): Perfect location, big terrasse, real hyper center of Cascais! - This place was truly awesome!
At first, I booked just one night since I didn’t know I’ll like Cascais. But the town itself is really nice, absolutely everything is in proximity to this hostel. I booked another 8 nights and it was absolutely amazing!
The ocean and the first beach is literally 70 meters from the door!
I am a remote worker so their big open terrasse with the view on the ocean created wonderful conditions for work, so I can’t even imagine how good it should be when you are there for a vacation.
+ fully equipped kitchen ( stove, oven, toaster, microwave, fridge, kettle, etc)
+ the showers, common areas and rooms are very clean - the cleaner passes every single day.
+ air-conditioning in the rooms
+ a looooot of places to eat out in the evening nearby.
All kinds - Traditional Portuguese cuisine, International restaurants, Portuguese tapas bars and like anything you can think of!
+ you can rent a bike in 200 meters from the hostel and see Guincho beach that’s just 12 km from the hostel, all along the ocean
Also, the stuff of the hostel has a perfect sense of presence - they are there when you need them, but you really feel like independent traveller in full flexibility, it’s really nice.
+ one of the days hostel put an ad at the reception of a surf class and the final price for me was 10 EUR less because I came through them. Pleasant detail, isn’t it?
Strong advantages:
- proximity to everything in Cascais + only 600 meters to the train station and 40 mins by train (2 EUR) to get to the center of Lisbon
- big open terrasse
- a lot of restaurants + enormous Auchan in just 600 meters away if you want to cook
- you feel a lot of personal space even though it’s a hostel
I’ll surely come back with a big pleasure!
Thank you! I can pre-assume that for some people the noise from the street can be challenging as the music lasts till 3 AM 7/7!
It wasn’t at all the problem for me or for any other travellers I spoke with but for those who look for a complete silence - please be aware of this. The free anti-noise earplugs are offered at the reception, which is a nice move.
- Lopez (9/5): Superb -
- Javier (1/5): Avoid! Noisy - Location Noisy area
Party Hostel
Unfriendly administration
Small shared room
Dirty shared bathrooms
- Sadie (4/5): Disappointing - the bed was comfy the staff opened my door and windows and started vacuuming at 8am
- Anyamanee (8/5): Good for the price - Location is at the heart of cascias Loud music from the bar until late night however, the hostel provides earplugs
- Hue-quyen (3/5): Poor -
- Jain (5/5): Passable -
- Nipon (1/5): Bad - Excellent location. Room is too small and they don't provide soap and the location is excellent but too much noise. And room are not sound proof.

- Peter (10/5): Exceptional - Location, facilities,staff.

- Rita (10/5): 2 nights stay, in the bunk bends, comfortable, clean - location was great, close to beach, restaurants
- Christopher (7/5): Good -
- Mary (8/5): Very good - Great location. The staff dissappears. Have no illusions bout being able to check in early or drop bags off ever.
- Yuli (4/5): Disappointing - Location I don't usually leave bad reviews but the stay here was very difficult, except for the noise which I was aware of. An uncomfortable and unstable bed at a level where you can't sit on it because you fall, there was a very bad smell of mold, we slept with the window open all night and it didn't help, we just wanted to get out of there as quickly as possible, luckily we only booked for one night
- Patricia (8/5): Very good -
- Noëlle (1/5): terrible - centrale locatie * every sunday the hostel organises a rooftop party without noticing the guests… and with extremely loud music…. we talked to the staff, but they did not do anything about it
* the smell in the bathroom (and therefore the rest of the room as well) is terrible!!!! it smells like sewage
* there is a lot of noise from the bars and restaurants beneath the hostel - we could not sleep until 2am
* the bed is extremely uncomfortable, small and not stable at all
* the hostel is open for random guests to visit the rooftop which means that everybody can enter the dorms
we do not recommend booking a room in this hostel if you want a pleasant stay in cascais!!!
- Amged (8/5): Very good -
- Emma (1/5): Bad - The loud noise, and it wasn't very welcoming
- Tim (7/5): Very pleasant! - Made a error whislt booking in a hurry and didn’t realise it was an hostel. Never the less, the room and bathroom were extremelly clean.
- Anastasija (5/5): Passable -
- Mehedi (10/5): Exceptional -
- Monteiro (10/5): Exceptional -
- Luvezuti (1/5): Bad - The hostel has a very nice rooftop and the location would be perfect, if we were looking to stay up late at night. The music in the neighborhood only stops at 2am even during the week and the toilet wasn't clean.
