Brothers Hostel in Rio de Janeiro

zuletzt aktualisiert am 05.01.2010

The Brothers’ Hostel is near almost everything that is really important and interesting in Rio de Janeiro. Walking, we are 3 minutes from the beautiful Botafogo Beach, 5 minutes from Parque do Flamengo, a good place for jogging, if you like to do exercises before starting to have fun, 12 minutes from the famous Copacabana Beach and 3 minutes from the subway station Flamengo (the best transportation in Rio).   By bus or subway, we are 10 minutes from Rio downtown, the oldest part of the city, where you can visit St. Sebastian Cathedral, St. Benedict Monastery and take the tram to St. Theresa a famous historical district. In 20 minutes you will arrive at Ipanema, with the Two Brothers Mountains at the back, and the most gorgeous girls... Hold on, girls... Boys too!!   If you are coming for the Carnival, it’s 5 minutes by car from Sambodromo, where you can see the most dazzling celebration of the world, and the parades of samba schools. Or you can choose one of the Carnival Blocs, to follow like a small parade, dancing and meeting people. Most of them are near Brothers Hostel. Wear your costume and feel the vibration!   Talking about parties, it’s 10 minutes by bus or subway from the well known bohemian district of Lapa, where the bars and clubs thrill with live music, pool tables and beautiful people. There you will see the famous Arcs, built in 1750. So, there are hundreds of options, but if you prefer only to pour some beers, Dafoca bar, on the other side of the street, at half a minute walking, is full of college students (there are three universities in the area) ready to tell you how a Carioca (the natives from Rio de Janeiro) like to spend their time and what’s their lifestyle in the most marvelous city of Brazil.   Inside the Brothers Hostel there’s the “Shelter”, a tematic bar (photo), ‘with the world at your feet’. There you can have tequila, a shot of whisky, and beers from many different countries, but we recommend you to try the Caipirinha, a typical Brazilian drink with cachaça. You can also play in the pool table or watch the most famous football championships.   If you need banks, supermarkets, drugstores, bus stops, subway stations and other facilities, you can find everything you need around the Brothers’ Hostel.   Come to Rio de Janeiro and let the Brothers’ Hostel be part of your story. We will be proud to be the link between your expectations and your new adventures. We are here waiting for you: take the time to travel!
