I had a great time staying the hostel. So did my friends, we went back like 3 times! Sure it's not exactly a 5-star hotel, but what do you expect it's a hostel!! The staff was absolutely wonderful. The hostel's location is just perfect! They have loads and loads of helpful information for tours, good night clubs -and each one... more

I stayed at this hostel for 4 nights and went to the football match which was very cheap and had a great experience there with almost all the travellers from "girl from ipanema" and other hostels near by. Great location, friendly staff plenty of information for who needs it. I am sure that next time i am in Rio I... more

On the good side: it's cheap (by Rio standards) and it's cheerful with a great location near Ipanema beach. On the negative side: it's a bit basic - certainly not the nicest hostel we ever stayed in. We never had any problems mentioned in the other reviews. We gave our passport as deposit as we didn't know how many nights... more

This is the worst nightmare in a tourist life! Words cannot describe what I had to go through because of this hostel. The owner ( Sophia ) and her son are not honest people at all! I made a reservation in another hostel in the same alley as the girl from ipanema. The alley has about 6 other hostels. As... more

This is possibly the worst hostal in the world. We stayed here and had the worst experience we ever have had in our travels. Sophia which is not even her real name...we found out at the police station because so many people have reported her! We were staying at her "private" apartments, which we later found out were illegal b/c... more

Words cannot properly describe how BAD this hostel is. We spent 5 nights in one of the world´s great cities, and the girl from ipanema totally ruined our experience. After checking 3 of us into a room with 2 double beds, and letting us unpack, they then tried to increase the price (apparently a common occurrence with this hostel). They... more

Although Rio was our favourite destination in 12 months of travel, the Girl From Ipanema Hotel added stress, frustration and anger to our stay. The hostel is the first in a series of hostels in a courtyard, and thus often takes unsuspecting travellers who have wandered in- be warned, you will pay more in this hostel, and staff are likely... more
