Hotels in Rio de JaneiroA basic 3-star budget hotel in Rio’s historic Centro
6.2/10
Useful for downtown stays, but room quality and the immediate surroundings are real compromises.
Pompeu Rio is a basic 3-star budget hotel in historic Centro, best considered for a short stay focused on downtown rather than the beaches. Its strongest argument is access to port-area museums and public transport. Staff earn better marks than the facilities on Booking.com, and several 2026 Tripadvisor guests praise helpful receptionists, clean rooms and breakfast. It can do the job, but we wouldn’t call it a dependable all-rounder.
The trade-offs go beyond dated decor: guests across sites describe cramped bathrooms, hard beds and uneven housekeeping, with some recent reports of stained towels and mold. Other guests report satisfactory cleanliness, so consistency is the issue. Several also feel uncomfortable around the entrance, especially after dark. Parking costs extra; check whether breakfast is included. We’d skip it for a comfort-first holiday or relaxed evening wandering.
