In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

3 reasons to book
  • Excellent central location — The hotel sits in the heart of Copacabana, a short walk from the beach, metro and buses, and close to shops and restaurants.
  • Friendly and helpful staff — Guests consistently mention the attentive, English-speaking staff who assist with tours, transfers and local advice.
  • Social atmosphere with activities — Organised nightly events make it easy for solo travellers to meet others, from football matches to Brazilian BBQ nights.

Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Not for those seeking quiet — The social, activity-filled environment means it can be lively, and one guest notes it's not suitable if you want peace and quiet.
  • Breakfast can be basic — While many enjoy the fresh fruit, one guest describes breakfast as 'really basic', and the hotel is compact with limited dining space.
  • Small property with limited facilities — With just 19 rooms, the hotel offers few on-site amenities beyond Wi-Fi, a bar/lounge and paid parking—no pool, gym or restaurant.

“Great value for money, with affordable prices. The rooms have cool decorations and small wooden frame windows that add a unique touch. The location in central Copacabana is perfect—close to the beach and surrounded by shops and restaurants. Staff are attentive and provide excellent service. Basic amenities, including private bathrooms, cover all the essentials. Breakfast offers plenty of fresh fruit.”

“This place was great. In the heart of Copacabana, it's a great location to access Rio. Staff are super, especially Acacia. Tours and airport transfers can easily be organised at reception, and there's an active schedule of things happening on different nights—parties, football matches, Brazilian BBQs. It's a friendly place with heaps going on.”

“Great atmosphere, perfect for a solo traveller—lots of organised activities made it easy to meet new people. Staff were exceptionally friendly, made me feel welcome, and spoke very good English. Would definitely use this chain again if travelling alone.”

“The location and staff were very good, and the breakfast was good too. It's easy to meet new people since a lot happens at the hostel. Not the place for you if you're looking for peace and quiet.”
