Other observations: Loft Premium Mauá is prepared to offer you all the comfort for your stay in a condominium with a rooftop pool, Omo laundry, mini-market, and common room. Guest access: Porto Maravilha. We are next to the Porto Maravilha region. The area boasts iconic landmarks that are part of the "Cidade Maravilhosa" (Marvelous City) itinerary, such as the Yup Star Rio Ferris wheel, the largest in Latin America, offering incredible views of the entire city. Next to Star Rio is AquaRio, the largest marine aquarium in South America, with over 10,000 animals of 350 species. In addition to all the immense historical and cultural richness of the Historic Center, the Porto Maravilha area is now recognized for the vibrant colors and vibrancy of the "Etnias" artwork, the world's largest graffiti mural, which is very popular and visited by thousands of tourists annually. In Praça Mauá, which can be considered the heart of this region, are located the Museum of Art of Rio and the Museum of Tomorrow. Both offer interactive, sensory, and technologically advanced programming. The cultural centers still offer us modern and bold architecture with views of Guanabara Bay, making it possible, for the first time in almost a century, to walk from Praça Mauá to the Paço Imperial area, through the bucolic Orla Conde, crossing the Olympic Boulevard and arriving at the entrance to the gastronomic hub of Praça XV, which has renowned restaurants such as Rio Minho, Sobrado da Cidade, and even Albamar. All this while enjoying a stunning view of the sea.
▪️HISTORIC RIO
"Little Africa" is the nickname given by the samba musician Heitor dos Prazeres (1898-1966) to the area encompassing the neighborhoods of Saúde, Gamboa and Santo Cristo, in the port area of Rio de Janeiro. The region was recently named by London's TimeOut magazine as one of the "coolest" in the world, with charming bars and fascinating places like Cais do Valongo, the Cemitério dos Pretos Novos (New Blacks Cemetery), and Pedra do Sal (Salt Rock). Here, in this historic and vibrant territory, where visitors can experience authentic Afro-Brazilian music, culture, and gastronomy in Rio de Janeiro, the famous traditional samba circles take place, even on weekdays. In Largo de São Francisco da Prainha, there's the famous "Bafo da Prainha," one of Rio's most frequented bohemian spots, and the famous, almost century-old restaurant "Angu do Gomes." To take advantage of this whole universe of possibilities, urban mobility needs to be top-notch. In this regard, we have the VLT (Light Rail Transit), a rail vehicle that crosses the center of Rio from end to end. The area has the Gentileza Terminal available, which integrates the Transbrasil BRT, 14 bus lines and lines 1 and 4 of the VLT (light rail), in addition to the metro. We are only 7 minutes by VLT from Santos Dumont Airport, which passes right by our hotel. Our location is also considered privileged, being close to Santos Dumont Airport and the bus station, facilitating the arrival and departure of tourists. A great advantage is also our proximity to the South Zone, the most touristic region of the city, with breathtaking attractions such as Christ the Redeemer, Sugarloaf Mountain, and beautiful Rio beaches like Copacabana, Ipanema, and Leblon. In addition to services such as bars, restaurants, and shopping centers.
