Mango Tree Ipanema - Hostel  

In Ipanema, just a block from world-famous Ipanema Beach and a short stroll to Arpoador. Copacabana is a few minutes away by foot or ride, with Sugarloaf and Corcovado within easy reach for day trips. Perfect for beach-first, party-late travelers looking for a lively Rio base.

Set in a renovated 1930s colonial house, the Mango Tree blends guest‑house comforts with hostel energy. Rooms are air‑conditioned with options for private rooms and dorms, many with en‑suite bathrooms. Expect sprung mattresses, 100% cotton sheets, hot gas‑heated showers and a relaxed communal vibe that even hosted Olympic athletes.

Chill on the terrace or in the garden, grab a caipirinha at the bar/lounge, or cook in the shared kitchen. Extras include bicycle rentals, a picnic and barbecue area, a library, an arcade/game room and a kids' playroom. There’s tour/ticket help, laundry and 24‑hour reception, plus shuttle and airport transfers available for a surcharge.

Complimentary wired and wireless internet across the property and a computer station in the common area. 24‑hour front desk and luggage services make quick check‑ins and transfers easy.

Start with a real Brazilian breakfast—fresh fruit, juice, breads, cereals, hot options and strong coffee—served daily for a fee. There's a lively bar/lounge for drinks and socializing, plus a communal kitchen if you prefer to cook.
