Hostel Sunrise
A budget-friendly stay with a refreshing rooftop terrace and pool
About this hotel
Travelers checking into Hostel Sunrise find a welcoming rooftop terrace, a prime spot for unwinding after a day exploring Rio. The outdoor pool provides a refreshing escape, perfect for a morning dip or a cool-down as the sun climbs higher. From this vantage point, the city unfolds, offering a dynamic backdrop to casual conversations and shared meals. As the afternoon mellows into golden hour, the terrace becomes a social hub where guests gather, perhaps with a drink from the shared kitchen, watching the urban landscape transition from daylight bustle to evening glow. The ambiance is laid-back and communal, ideal for making new connections while enjoying the open air. The terrace's unpretentious charm and its direct connection to the city's pulse make it a memorable part of the stay.

Why guests love itA group of three backpackers chose Hostel Sunrise for the price and the short walk to Escadaria Selarón, and the rooftop became their living room. They cooled off in the outdoor pool after hot afternoons, cooked cheap dinners in the shared kitchen, then carried plates up to the terrace to eat with the city views and chat with other guests. It was social without being wild. Travelers wanting privacy or polish would find it too basic.
