About
Le House Hostel - Rio de Janeiro
Le House Hostel sits on Ladeira Ary Barroso in the Leme neighbourhood, a five-minute walk from Mural Babilonia. The rooftop terrace is the main draw, a place to unwind after a day out, and the hostel also runs a bar and lounge area, a shared kitchen, and a games room. Guests can use the laundry, book tours at reception, and take advantage of 24-hour check-in.

4 to weigh- Value for money is a weak point — The value rating sits at 6.2, the lowest of all categories, suggesting some guests feel the price doesn't quite match what's offered.
- Rooms score modestly — Rooms are rated 6.6, which is below the general rating, so expectations for comfort should be tempered.

- No pets allowed — Travellers with animals will need to look elsewhere, as the policy is explicit.

Getting around Rio de Janeiro

Leme: The hostel sits in Leme, a beachside neighbourhood between Copacabana and Sugar Loaf. The beach is a short walk away, and the area is more laid-back than the busiest parts of Rio. Mural Babilonia is a five-minute walk, a colourful viewpoint with views over the coast.
