Castelinho38

Built in 1866, Castelinho38 handsomely embraces Brazilian artistic culture while being infused with the vibrant ambiance of the San Teresa neighborhood.

Sporting an elegant castle-like appearance, it is a prime example of the city’s dynamic architecture. Castelinho38 is a roomy two-storey building with elevated ceilings and wooden floored passageways. Its white exterior blends in gracefully with the hotel’s brown-colored window frames and railings.

Nature and art are firmly ingrained into the hotel’s philosophy, as the property often showcases paintings from several prominent artists and hosts workshops and exhibitions on rhythm and dance. With its unique and airy design, Castelinho38 exudes a warm touch and artistic vibe.

Every room at the Castelinho38 has a unique decorative style, each named after a lovely plant gracing the hotel’s garden. The handsome guestrooms give a clean design with refined wood floors and stylish furnishings.

The hotel terrace, which overlooks the garden, provides a priceless view of the city centre and part of the Baía de Guanabara. Whether on the terrace, within the hotel bar, or in the garden, one can observe the well-known Santa Teresa tram as it makes its way through nearby streets and passes curious onlookers. Furthermore, the terrace bar is open daily and serves a wide selection of snacks and drinks.

Castelinho38 lies in Santa Teresa – a modern, vibrant and culturally-driven neighborhood known for its reverence of the arts. The area is replete with shops filled with fine Brazilian arts and crafts as well as restaurants serving delicious Brazilian cuisine.
