still remaining in zona sul, the areas further away from copacabana and ipanema will offer lower prices.

the districts along the metrô line, such as flamengo, catete, and botafogo, are easily accessible and have more affordable options, with the same level of service and quality of the hotels in copacabana and ipanema. 

botafogo and flamengo are near some of the blocos organized in the center of town, such as boitatá and cordão da bola preta, not to mention the recently created and already classic orquestra voadora.

further away from the beaches, in the center of town, charming santa teresa offers a different style of accommodation, given its hillside elevation, narrow cobbled streets, and artistic residents.
