Rio de Janeiro hotels in Santa Teresa

Pros: The hostel was very clean with an amazing view and the staff was very helpful . Thanks a lot Laura and Maria for your kindness and your delicious breakfasts and cakes!

Pros: Staff was very friendly and helpful. The place was really nice to hang out as well.

Cons: Not a lot of ventilation in the bedroom (private bedroom on 1st floor) due to the only window being the door.

Pros: The staf was very friendly - I loved the swimmingpool - nice atmossphere - the breakfast was also very good they even made pancakes.

Cons: The kitchen was closed at 10 Pm so if you arrived late from the tours you could not cook anymore and you were obliged to order take away food. It was forbidden to bring alcohol from outside

Pros: Friendly staff and pool

Cons: Poor wifi but do have computer access

Pros: Breakfast was perfect, just what we needed. Staff was super friendly, and some even spoke English (not always the case in Brazil). Room was perfect and had everything we needed. Shared bathroom with one other room, so no problems there either.

Cons: Maybe the location? If you continue up the road it looked a bit sketchy... Also a bit further out of Santa Theresa then we originally thought. Walkable during the day, but after dark it's necessary to take an uber/taxi.

Pros: Best Hostel Breakfast ever. Super friendly stuff and nice atmosphere.

Pros: It’s a very friendly place in nice neighborhood of Santa Teresa hill. I was here twice and I’ll definitely come back again. Laura, thank you a lot for everything!

Pros: The hostel is comfortable and well equipped

Cons: You're not allowed to bring alcohol inside the hostel. You need to buy it at the bar which closes quite early and it's not that cheap.

Pros: The location is a bit depressing because of the homeless people that gather in the area. The hotel however is a great surprise. At a rather good price, you can have a safe and comfortable stay. The breakfast has many options, though the food quality can be improved.

Cons: Though in general, the hotel is clean, it can definitely be improved, by taking care of minor details (e.g. tiny insects that fly around the buffet, check the towels for stains, etc.)

Cons: The noise from the air-conditioning

Pros: Excelente localização na Lapa

Cons: Região meio ruim para crianças,

Pros: location

Cons: The reviews in booking do not meet the reality just check for the hotel on google and see the reviews. Awful conditions! Old and dirty ... night stuff unprofessional. Breakfast very basic! It’s cheap but it’s says “GREAT “ in the booking.com... not true!!!! (Dirty sheets and smelling toalet... loud AC

Pros: Only location is good.

Cons: Breakfast is bad. No black tea! The towel is a bit dirty. It locates near the road which is nosy. If u think otel is just sleeping for u, maybe u can book but if u dont think so, u shouldnt book this otel

Pros: The staff provided exceptional, outstanding service. They were patient and helpful with my 7 children. I cannot over state their hospitality and generosity.

Cons: No fitted sheets on the beds. Very small rooms (adequate for sleeping, but little else).

Pros: Location, value, pool and gym

Cons: Room service food was bad.

Pros: Location

Cons: The view

Pros: It's not a touristic area for sure. But I really enjoy it! I didn't feel unsafe. Sure you shouldn't walk alone by yourself at the night, especially if you were a woman.

Pros: Location next to lots of bars, pool bar area

Cons: Very slow making food, had to cancel and music ridiculously loud at pool bar!

Pros: This hotel was another peak of my trip to Rio... So we decided to stay one more night...The view from the balcony and from the breakfast terrace is amazing! You can see the Pao de Acucar and Christ the Redeemer... I think its view beats all the 5* hotels in Rio de Janeiro...The breakfast is full of fruits, some bread and you can also order eggs...The pool was nice and the hotel in overall is clean and really cute. The hotel staff was really friendly and even though the room I wanted was reserved, they finally managed to give it to us so we stayed to the room we wanted! tip: get a room with balcony

Pros: The staff, (the morning receptionist & afternoon) the sweetest girls ever. They were so welcoming and helpful. One of the receptionist even cooked for me because everything was closed sundays after 4 pm. The view is beyond beautiful. The rooms are clean and look exactly like the pictures this is worth so much more than it’s cost!! 10 stars

Cons: The location is a little isolated from the Santa Theresa town, I stood over the weekend and sundays everything is closed, so I had to starve because there was no cook at the villa and due to the isolated location didn’t really want to travel too far for food.

Pros: The view, the breakfast and dinner when the restaurant was open. Swimming pool was nice. Caroline was so lovely.

Cons: I paid £600 for 4 days. Not happy at all. The location, so out of the way of Rio, no shops around at all. Nothing. It was not stated on booking. Yes there was a fridge with some water, beer etc but no prices stated. We thought complimentary. No. When we arrived we were offered no drink, water or anything. After a long trip. To welcome us. The French receptionist was very unhelpful, dismissive quite rude and gave us no information about anything, buses, Uber’s or how to get around. We found this out from another guest. Basically 10-15 minutes on the bus to get anywhere near. Or Uber, but WiFi wasn’t good. Thankfully my friend talks Portuguese. The room was nothing like the photos, it was dirty, the sheets smelt awful, the hot tub was rusty and so were there mirrors. There was no where to put clothes. The hot water didn’t work well for 4 days and we kept asking how to fix it. The air conditioning was awful, it faced to the bath, not to the room and was leaking badly for 3 days. There were a few toiletries but so small and you didn’t know what they were. The room was made up 2 days out of 4 and they only made the bed. We didn’t get fresh towels, they were still wet from the previous day. When I’m complained the first time about air conditioning, room etc, the French receptionist was so rude to me. Basically dismissed me. The whole place needs upgraded and refreshed. It could be as wonderful as the photos show. Not worth the money. I realise it was over NY but even then, I expected more and to be treated as a valued guest, not a burden.

Pros: Incredible view

Cons: They don’t have cream cheese and expresso at the breakfast

Pros: View and spa

Cons: Terrace Door can t lock Mouldy lamp Open power socket missed very dangerous and no luxury for any room especially for a master room Curtains dirty Tape on the ceiling Ceilings lights oxidate and dirty in the bathroom Bathroom Shelfs dirty with dasty

Pros: The hotel has a great view and everything is pretty and intimate, exactly what you need to relax

Cons: A bathroom mat and a couple of face towels would make everything easier.

Pros: Amazing staff, beautiful view, large swimming pool, tasty breakfast, enormous bathtub

Cons: Location is not really satisfying. It is far away both from any beach and from the centre.

Pros: Breakfest is beutiful.Views from teracce is amazing!!!

Cons: It was fine

Pros: Staff spoke no English but helpful. Fine for a night before flying on.

Cons: Sheets and towels stained.

Pros: Lapa is great. It is really pretty. But neighborhood is poor.

Cons: Hotel is terible. Cleanliness is really poor. Food served on breakfast was rotten.

Pros: The facilities are not a new one even though it may look like one. The rooms are really old, and not clean at all. I stayed with my family and had many problems during our staying. Air conditioner really old; not working well; lots of noises coming from that thing! Beds horrible. Bedrooms Doors wouldn’t lock. Sheets terrible dirty and had some marks of something not identified. We had a horrible staying and will not coming back, unfortunately.

Cons: The shower was decent. ONLY THING!

Cons: The wifi signal was not strong enough

Cons: Dirty bed sheets

Pros: Breakfast was wonderful! Location excellent if you are interested in being close to the old city centerReasonable value for money.

Cons: Only accessible with Maps. The Lapa district is very dirty with trash piled up on the sidewalks and the homeless people and drug abusers giving the area an extremely squalid feel. We didn't feel safe at all. No coffee (cafezinho) freely available. The aircon was almost useless.

Cons: Dirty sheets, wall were broken, the air was in rooms disgusting, stuff didn't understand English

Pros: the price.

Cons: the bathrooms was TERRIBLE, the breakfast, the staff, and clean of the room is not really good.
