Accommodation in Lisbon and Porto

[desertwoman]

Great Morning Everyone! I will be arriving in Lisbon on September 16 and Porto on the 19th. Accommodation suggestions would be appreciated during my stay in these amazing cities. I have read through the albergues and hostels but personal recommendations would be appreciated. I am 74, quite active, interested in history, museums, and galleries so would like to be reasonably close to some of these places. Where did you stay and did you like it or not?

More details: as a pensioner, price matters. It doesn’t have to be the cheapest, basically clean and reasonably quiet. From my experience on the Norte, I prefer a bed with a curtain mainly because I like to read and journal in bed and do not wish to disturb others. The older the area, the happier I will be. I will be roaming the Senda Litoral and Spiritual Variant paths. Being in/on/near water brings me peace.

Hola

When I walked about 8 years ago from Porto I stayed here:

Albergue de Peregrinos do Porto — Official Website

WELCOME TO ALBERGUE PEREGRINOS PORTO Our Albergue is exclusively for pilgrims. All pilgrims are welcome to stay on your way to Santiago de Compostela, before and after the Camino. You can also stay multiple days to recover and explore the beautiful city of Porto. About Us We opened our doors on...

albergueperegrinosporto.pt

It was a good albergue and it is pretty close to the center.
Host was kind and the place was clean and nice.

I would stay there again if I should walk from Porto.

I hope this helps.

Buen Camino.
Lettinggo

Last time I stayed in the Albergue do Porto for the start of my Camino, for the vacation after the CP I stayed at "A Portuguesa Guesthouse". Very nice mix of hostel / hotel in an old townhouse. Just 5 mins from Trindade station.

A very good recomendation would be "The passengers hostel" in Sao Bento station. Never heard anything bad about it.

Hello. I stayed in the 'Albergue de Peregrinos do Porto' also. A very welcoming and helpful place with good common areas and a big peaceful garden. You can see from the photos that the dorms are a bit spartan, but on the plus side they are spacious. The location is quiet. Ena

Lost Inn. Porto

I was going to write Lost Inn in Porto too. Stayed there last April. Curtains, place to lock up your stuff, great kitchen and common room and you are right under the cathedral. Easy start in the morning walking down to the river.
