Ananab Guesthouse Rio

The perfect place for travelers with a preference for smaller environments and warmer ambiance. Let us take you away from the tourist center and crowds of big hotels to enjoy our carioca way of living.

Our house on the mountainside is situated in Laranjeiras, a residential area of the South Zone, with its own distinctive personality.

With its strategic location between the Historical Center/Lapa and the beaches (Copacabana/Ipanema), only 15 min. away from all main sights and beaches. Down the street you can find shops, banks and supermarkets as well as typical bars and restaurants. The train station to the Cristo Redentor, Corcovado is at no more than 10 min. walking.

Surrounded by exotic plants and flowers, you can relax upon returning from your adventures in our urban beach city and its over 6 million habitants.


The house with cozy living room and terrace is at your disposal. Our pool with breathtaking panoramic view allows you to revive that exotic atmosphere bound to the traveler's hospitality.

Our concept:

Your residence in Rio de Janeiro, to feel comfortable and at home!

We consider ourselves lucky to have found this beautiful house in the middle of Rio. Contrary to most places, we live at the guest house and like to share it with our guests.

Feel free to listen to some music, enjoy the sun at the terrace, have a drink or dip at the pool.

It is a pleasure for us helping you to find your way around and discover our beautiful city. We'll make sure that your stay in Rio is an unforgettable experience.
