Located approximately a 10-minute ride from a convenient place to shop such as the large Cobal do Humaita Food Market, this Rio de Janeiro inn provides 8 rooms.
The hotel is nestled in Botafogo with no match in terms of location, 4.7 km from the hard-to-miss historical sites like the coastal defense Copacabana Fort. The Casa Tuxi Rio de Janeiro offers proximity to such natural sights as the public park "Parque Lage" (3.2 km) and the laid-back Praia do Leme Beach (2.7 km). Also, Church of Our Lady of Glory Outeiro lies nearly a 15-minute drive away, and Botafogo underground station is within reach of the accommodation. Estação D Pedro II Central railway station is 4.1 km from this Rio de Janeiro hotel.
The rooms feature air conditioning, along with a flat-screen cable-TV for guests' utmost comfort. The rooms feature private bathrooms. Most rooms at Casa Tuxi Hotel come with a separate toilet, as well as comforts including bath sheets. The rooms also look onto the city.
A buffet breakfast is available daily from 08:30 till 10:30. The Casa Tuxi offers its own à la carte restaurant, where guests can try Brazilian dishes. The poolside bar provides you with a place to unwind. Fogo de Chao Botafogo is just a 13-minute walk away and serves Brazilian cuisine.
Review by hotel critic
If you're hunting for a balance of value and comfort in Rio, Casa Tuxi could be a contender. Nestled in Botafogo, this spot comes with a lovely mix of shabby chic decor and a genuinely welcoming staff - big shoutout to Bruno, whose kindness really stood out. The rooms are clean and feature air conditioning, which is a must in the Rio heat. It's great to retreat to a cool space after exploring the nearby restaurants, shops, and, of course, beaches! Breakfast was enjoyable, with a decent spread of fruits, bread, and hearty meats and cheeses; the coffee was a highlight for sure. I experienced some hiccups. The place felt a bit crowded and dusty at times. I even had a situation where my son had trouble with the smell of bleach after they over-treated the pool, which was concerning and not properly communicated by the management. In short, while the atmosphere and amenities are appealing, just weigh the cost with some of these minor drawbacks. It might be worth considering if you're after a comfortable base without breaking the bank during your Rio adventure.
