About
Eco Praia De Botafogo - Rio de Janeiro
Eco Praia De Botafogo sits on the first floor of a building on Rua Sao Clemente, placing you in the everyday rhythm of Rio's Botafogo neighbourhood. The hostel keeps things simple: shared dorms, family rooms and a family suite, all served by free Wi-Fi and a reception desk that never sleeps. It's a no-frills base for travellers who'd rather spend on experiences than on where they sleep.
Practical touches include luggage storage, currency exchange and tour assistance, along with a grocery shopping service if you'd rather stock the fridge yourself. The property is non-smoking throughout, and pets are welcome, which is a genuine advantage in a city where not every budget stay allows four-legged guests. At around £41 per night, it's aimed squarely at value-conscious visitors.

Worth weighing
3 to weigh- No on-site parking — Parking is not listed as an amenity, which means guests driving to the hostel will need to find public parking nearby.
- No reviews to verify guest experience — The property has no guest reviews in the database, so it's harder to gauge what to expect beyond the listed amenities.

Getting around Rio de Janeiro
The property sits in Rio de Janeiro.
Botafogo: The hostel is on Rua Sao Clemente, a main street in Rio's Botafogo neighbourhood. From here, you can walk to local shops, cafés and transport links, though the closest beach—Praia do Leme—is about 4.3 km away, so you'll need to plan a short journey to reach the sand.
