About
Corujinha Hostel - Lisbon
Corujinha Hostel sits on the first floor of a building on Rua Visconde de Santarém, a short walk from Saldanha metro station. The property is a working hostel: mixed and female-only dorms, private double rooms, and a standard suite, with the whole place kept non-smoking. Wi-Fi runs throughout, and the 24-hour reception makes late arrivals straightforward.
Guests share a kitchen and dining space, a TV room, and a children's play area, and each bed comes with a locker. The interior leans on a quiet owl theme, with parquet floors and soundproofed rooms. There's no parking on site and pets aren't allowed, but the location is geared toward metro-based exploring.

Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Mixed overall guest rating — The overall score sits at 6.3 out of 10, below the typical Lisbon hostel average, though individual reviews are largely positive.
- No parking on site — There is no dedicated parking, so guests arriving by car will need to rely on street parking or public transport.
- Pets not allowed — The property does not accept pets, which may rule it out for travelers with animals.
- Check-in window is limited — Check-in is only between 15:30 and 23:30, so arrivals outside that window won't be able to access the room until the next day.
