Brand new hostel in a perfect (and safe) spot in Santa Teresa. It was one of the most special places we stayed in on our trip, a beautiful old castle with magical views. There is a pool, breakfast, nice people and Rio, what do you need more? Highly recommend staying here!

Great vibes, great staff, I felt super welcome and made many friends, its a good place to socialize. The surrounding area is really nice and you are sleeping in a real awesome castle! They even let me relax at the pool for hours after I checked out!

Nice location in the neighbourhood of Santa Teresa, beautiful old building with a nice garden and an amazing view over the city and the Cristo statue. The perfect oasis of tranquility in the hustle and bustle of Rio. I will definitely come back next time I’m in Rio :)

Amazing stay with great host! The pool, the castle, the view, the staff- a hidden gem for all who want to stay in Rio.

It is a unique building, old, big and very artistic- how it looks is reason enough to stay here! Big kitchen with a lot of space to cook. The castle also has many spaces for relaxing or socializing, like the pool, the living room and the garden. There is something for everyone here, either if you like to socialize a lot, chill in your own private space or if you are there to work while you travel. Great staff and great volunteers who really makes you feel at home. For me, this is one of the most unique and special hostels you can visit, do not sleep on this one and book your stay❤️

Had a great time at this lovely castle. Staff is amazing and very helpful, the castle is located near a very lively part of Santa Teresa and it is clean!! I was supposed to stay for a couple of days but I kept extending my stay. Definitely coming back!

This Hostel is the most beautiful Hostel where I’ve ever been and the people who work there are soo kind and so welcoming☺️ The whole atmosphere was very different compared to other hostels, the kitchen was super clean, well organized and you just had the feeling you live there with friends. I also really appreciated how much they care about you and that they exchange numbers to stay in contact and make sure that you arrive safely when you go out in the evening. Thank you so much for everything, I will definitely come back!!<3

This place is a true hidden gem. The pictures speak for themselves. What is also nice however are the staff who are all super chill and incredibly friendly. Great big kitchen. Lots of areas to chill both inside and out. Fantastic location close to the centre of Santa Teresa.

After 3 nights spent in Orpoador / Zona Sul, we wanted to discover a new neighborhood during our stay in Rio... Located in the liveliest district of Santa Teresa, Castelos de los Tucanos offered us an incredible experience, what a nice surprise ! The private room was spacious, the bed very comfortable and our 3 windows overlooked a large swimming pool, a tropical garden and a breathtaking view of the entire city of Rio with even the Corcovado at the far end: wonderful ! The place is very quiet and close to all the local bars and restaurants, we loved all the places we went to. The team is friendly and particularly professional, we almost felt at home ! We highly recommend the Castelo de los Tucanos and, when back in Rio, we will return with great pleasure to this magical place !
