King George

0%

Based on 0 Ratings

A popular hostel with Israeli backpackers, the King George Hostel is located a few blocks from the famous Copacabana beach. A large sprawling house with shared dorms and bathrooms, a t.v. room, a computer room, free breakfast (including eggs, fruit, juice, bread, and cookies), and even small monkeys hanging out in the trees around the house, King George is a good option for budget travelers who´d like a centralized base in Rio. This is probably one of the cheapest accomodations in the city, so expect a packed house, and bring your Hebrew dictionary.

The helpful staff can organize tickets for Rio´s Carnaval, soccer games, or outings to sites around the city, and George, the hostel´s owner, owns several apartments in the city which are also possible to rent.

Rua Guimaraes Natal 12, near the "Arco-Verde" subway station.

I'm a reader, a writer, and a traveler, the kind of gal who likes to get as filthy as possibly on a camping trip, and then spend hours in the bathtub...
