It feels like a resort! So beautiful, lots of great spaces, the breakfast was outstanding, the staff were delightful, the beds were private and comfortable, it’s very secure and the surroundings are safe… it was like a perfect hostel! I wish I could’ve stayed longer.

One of the best hostel I’ve ever stayed! The place is incredible and clean, the staff is so kind and makes you feel like home, and even better than that. The swimming pool and the private mountain with the amazing view on Rio are the cherries on the top. I highly recommend it!

The atmosphere is 10/10, 3 pools, restaurant, and bar where you can buy drinks. There is also plenty of common space where you can meet people even a small bar where you can buy your own alcohol and make drinks if your on a budget. Also a coworking space where you can get work done if you need to. They literally have everything you could need. Great for every type of stay from families to solo travelers. I stayed during carnival and it was a great to meet people and hang out in between blocos. Also the breakfast is GREAT.

The atmosphere is very unique, and it's exactly what you would expect from a hostel based on yoga and meditation philosophy. Clean and relaxed, a great way to disconnect from Rio (There was even some sort of Reiki music on the corridor). Top quality hygiene and cleaning. Been travelling for 5 months in South America, and this was my favourite place so far, highly recommended

It was the best surprise I’ve had booking somewhere, this is the first review I’ve left on booking.com. The place has comfortable beds. The owners become family to you and I’ll remember this stay forever! They make you feel so comfortable and are so kind and warm. Cacaia also makes the most amazing breakfast everyday! Thank you so much Cacaia and Henrique!

All hostels in Niterói

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
