Arthostel Rio

A new concept in travel and hospitality.

We frequently have students, artists, musicians, and many friends passing through here.

We have approximately 100 vacancies in total, as well as a large gallery, a multimedia room, massage/relaxation room and kitchen.

The hostel is a beautiful redeveloped old building from the end of the 19th Century, situated just over the road from the gardens of Catete Palace. We are only a 15 minute walk from the Arches of Lapa, Cinelandia and Flamengo, from where you can visit Sugar Loaf Mountains (Pao de Acucar) and Christ the Redeemer.

We are located just 100 metres from Catete Metro Station from where you can get to Ipanema, Copacabana and Leblon in 15 minutes.
