Graja Hostel

 

 

Hello! Welcome to Graja Hostel!

​

 

Located in the traditional and tree-lined neighbourhood of Grajau, in the North section of Rio de Janeiro, Graja Hostel is placed at the Ramos Mansion, a beautiful house which, over the years, even before it was opened to the public as a hostel, was always welcoming the owners´ friends and relatives who came from distant cities and needed housing.

​

This embedded hosting culture gave birth to the idea of the Graja Hostel, a carefully planned environment to make your stay comfortable, safe and roomy, in a broad, clean and pleasant site , with film alike infrastructure.

 

There are six rooms in the mansion; four bedrooms that share a common bathroom, and two suites, each with a private bathroom. There is also a big and cosy living room, with a television, a spacious kitchen shared by all guests, a game room, 24h front desk and much more.

​

Looking from the garden, you can enjoy the view of Pico do Perdido or Pico do Papagaio(in English: The Parrot Peak), the main symbol of the Grajau region. Pico do Papagaio is a much desired place by climbing afficionados, for its trails, waterfalls and huge climbing routes , present throughout an altitude of 500 yards.

​

The neighbourhood is known for its quiet streets, filled with upper class houses, some of those having been built in the early twentieth century and still preserving part of its original features, albeit now sharing the landscape with some more recent constructions.

​

We are just eight minutes away from Maracanã Stadium and many other interesting sites such as: Parque Estadual do Grajau (Grajau State Park), Universidade Estadual do Rio de Janeiro (Rio de Janeiro State University- UERJ), Veiga de Almeida University, Cefet Maracanã, Samba Schools Vila Isabel, Mangueira and Salgueiro, Quinta da Boa Vista (a very pleasant public park with a zoo), The National Museum, Downtown Rio de Janeiro, Lapa, Sambódromo, Tijuca, Floresta da Tijuca (Tijuca Forest), and much more!
