Santa Teresa Hotel

Santa Teresa Hotel is a boutique urban retreat in the heart of Rio de Janeiro‘s colorful, hillside Santa Teresa neighborhood. Blessed with a panoramic view of downtown Rio, this property was originally a coffee farm, dating back to 1850. Elements of the hotel’s design are inspired by Brazil‘s golden eras of coffee and cocoa.

Santa Teresa Hotel is located close to the center of Rio and the Lapa nightlife district. We love the Santa Teresa vibe, away from the bustle but usually only 20-30 minutes by car from iconic landmarks such as the cathedral; Cristo Redentor statue; Sugarloaf Mountain, and the wide South Zone beaches of Leme, Copacabana, Ipanema, and Leblon. Many of our clients stay on the beach for their first trip to Rio, but choose Santa Teresa on subsequent trips.

Guest rooms at Santa Teresa Hotel bring to mind the breezy and the tropical. The emphasis is on natural and raw materials–cotton, flax, coconut fiber, bacaba banana, carnauba, and warm hardwoods.
