You’re about to discover the new generation of contemporary styled backpackers. OASIS is a place designed for the modern day global traveller. Travellers who not only want refuge from the vigour of the road and good insider tips, but travellers who also want to have fun and high pressured showers, someone just like you.
You’ll find our backpackers´ mansion perched on the “Miradouro do Sanata Catarina”, overlooking the river and the Ponte (Bridge) ¨25 de Abril¨. Alive with fluttering laundry, regal buildings and balcony gossip Santa Catarina is smack in the middle of Lisbon’s cultural and entertainment life. The adjacent neighbourhood of Chiado is perfect for an afternoon of shopping or just loitering in cafes.
At night, a few steps from our front door, the famous “Barrio Alto” comes to life. The storefronts that were shuttered before have burst open, revealing an endless array of small bars, the decoration of which seems to have been left to young art students and fashion designers. Add plastic cups and no covers and you have one of Europe’s hottest and cheapest nightspots.
In the light of day, Lisbon is breathtakingly beautiful. There are steep hills, clanging cable cars, azure skies with sweeping vistas of bay, bridges and the vast expanse of ocean beyond, as well as an over-the-top architectural bent.
Whether you are exploring monuments to colonial power in Belem, hiking through the historic Alfama, tracking down the melancholic sighs of Fado, making your way to Sintra or heading off to the beach for the day, our staff, well versed in the art of travel, can offer tips and advice on how best to navigate the city.
We also keep you connected with free and incredibly fast ADSL internet, WiFi access, Phone cards and available phone for keeping in contact with the family.
When the museums close and the sun sets unwind with us in the patio garden, enjoy our famously gourmet yet economical dinners, grill some meat (or veggies) on our Bar-B-Que, get sauced when we take over a Lisbon club for our weekly backpackers party, or just take our elevator up and down all night.
If you just want to stay in and take a break from travelling, we can help with high pressured showers, 9 inches of mattress heaven, clean dorms, Gourmet cooking facilities, Portuguese classes, Ping Pong table, high-brow library, laundry service (we even fold your clothes) and cult cocktail hour where you can trade travel tales over Singapore Slings and some tunes.
Welcome to state of the art facilities, superior comfort, clean bathrooms and a staff well versed in the art of backpacking. Welcome to Oasis Backpackers´ Mansion
Lisboa! WHAT’S FREE: Breakfast, 24 hour ADSL Internet access, Coffee & Tea, WiFi connection, travel tips, sheets, library, loads of ambience and general good cheer!
