Best hostel in Ipanema!

This is one of the best hostels I’ve ever stayed in! There are free activities and drinks on everyday and it makes it very easy to make friends ❤️ it also feels very safe - this was important to me as a female solo traveller. The staff at the hotel were absolutely amazing!! Always happy to help and made sure that all the group outings were super fun. One staff in particular - Maya, she was so helpful and was so good at hosting the events, it was always a fun time! Would highly recommend to other solo travellers who are looking for a fun and friendly hostel. It’s also right near t ipanema beach. I will definitely come back here! 🩷

Ear buds & Eyemasks are a must Bar is the only common place u have to work. There is No desk so u won't be able to use ur laptop properly (for long hours)

The hostel appear on the website as new. It is not. They had renovation works going on at the peak of time (carnival), all day long. I paid for breakfast and was told it was not included, that I had to pay 20 Reais to then be told a few days later that breakfast was free during carnival (scam! I paid for it and was not reimbursed). The rooms are not comfortable. The doors are all wanky. If you want a towel or a blanket or a lock you have to pay. You have to make your bed at the start and remove your bedsheets at the end. I paid 100+ dollars per night for a bed in a 6-bed dorm and this level of service… shocking.

Let's start with the pros. The location of this property is great -- very close to the beach in a safe neighborhood surrounded by great bars and restaurants. The hostel was clean, with a great happy hour, and the breakfast was very good (though located down the street at their sister hostel). That being said, the photos of the rooms are misleading -- being a lot smaller than pictured. It should also be noted that the staff is not very experienced and didn't really know the area, having many recommendations for where to go, eat, etc. English is also not widely spoken amongst the staff which made it challenging to communicate at times. We encountered one very helpful staff member (thank you, Barbara!) but otherwise, we didn't find the staff very helpful. We even missed out on a tour we wanted to participate in because the staff took too long to provide our names to the operator and we lost our spot. There is also no good "hang out place" within the hostel and what is there, is not very warm and inviting. So, you'll be limited to hanging out inside your room or outside of the hostel for the most part. If you're simply looking for a bed to sleep in, in a good area of the city, it's a great option. If you're looking for a good standard hostel experience, I'd stay elsewhere.

There is no real management behind this place. Their pictures are renderings. Once you arrive you will find a construction site. They will walk in your room as many times as needed without your knowledge, if they perform construction work they will leave the dirt behind and that's how you will realize. They sap my entire bed on me. AC units are off early in the morning until late at night regardless of what price or room you paid for. Front desk staff is really friendly but they are as lost as you as far as finding missing keys, AC, water heater, etc. Location is not as great either.It is very noisy and there is no insulation between walls so you will hear everything inside and outside 24/7. Some of my stuff went missing, there was no room service ever even though they did not stop doing construction inside my room. You could pay me to stay there again and I will kindly reject it. Just get another place where there is a system of check and balances. This property is a free for all. The Argentinian lady managing this is a liar and a scammer.

Like a low-cost airline, but made hostel

I didn't like More Ipanema. From the very beginning, I felt there is no social vibe in here. People only go to the bar for free caipirinhas, and then they all disappear. If you travel by yourself, then I wouldn't recommend you staying here. The hostel is like a low-cost airline: they want to charge you for everything. Towels, blankets and even for taking a shower after checking out! (This was totally unbelievable for me: I've stayed +7n in here, I just want to take a shower before going to the airport!) Comfort: 0. Everything is impractical: beds are for kids, because you can't sit in there nor sleep well. There are no curtains, and you're not assigned any bed, so you have to choose yours as soon as you arrive. Also, you have to prepare your own bed with the sheets they give you. Mattress was hard as a stone. Social spaces: -1. There are no common spaces to meet people. Only the bar, with loud music and free caipirinhas for 30 min. Hot water: 10/10. Taking showers was the best thing! Even though the bathroom is not always clean, hot water was perfect. You don't have any soap to wash your hands, so it's a bit disgusting. Wi-Fi: 10/10. It worked perfectly! Anyway, there are no working spaces, s it's not a digital nomads hostel. No water dispenser. Volunteers: they do a great job! There's a WhatsApp group, but whenever you complain about something from the hostel, the admin writes a pm to kindly ask you to delete it. Amazing If I go to RJ again, I wouldn't stay here.

Como um hostel, a experiência é na média, por isso a avaliação geral. As camas são relativamente confortáveis, a recepção e o bar são bem bonitos e os atendentes (especialmente a Duda) são simpáticos. O café da manhã custa R$ 29,90 (em 2025), só está incluso para hóspedes de quartos privativos e é bom o suficiente pelo preço. Porém, encontrei 3 problemas principais. Em primeiro lugar, a limpeza deixa muito a desejar. Vi um tufo de cabelo pelo chão durante os dois dias que estive lá e ninguém retirou. No banheiro, o tapete era trocado, mas não via uma limpeza muito adequada das outras partes, como o box, a pia, etc. Em segundo lugar, falta uma prateleira em cada cama individual para apoiar algumas coisas. Quem fica na cama de cima, tem que fazer um malabarismo para descer toda vez que quer pegar algum pertence pessoal no armário abaixo das camas. Por fim, o ar condicionado do meu quarto (102) não gelava adequadamente, precisava ter um vento mais forte (parecia que eles colocavam no mínimo toda noite). Enfim, de modo geral, recomendo a experiência para quem é desapegado e não liga tanto para o que falei. O hostel tem muitos turistas de outros países, então é bom para conhecer gente nova. Eu estava viajando solo, então achei que foi relativamente adequado para os meus propósitos.
