Location, you need not need to re-login to the hotel WiFi every time you return to the hotel and the bed had great pillows.
The flat screen TV was about the size computer monitor,only 2 towels and no face clothes, zero facial tissue, shampoo in tiny bags you'll need a knife to open, only ONE roll of toilet tissue. Free Breakfast had no clean plates or hot food when I attended.
Only the location!
They offered us an old room with some issues. The shower took too long to get water hot. When we arrived there was no towels and amenities. The Breakfast was poor. I expected a lot more than what has been offered to us.
location
the AC didn't work, it was hot in the room.
My stay at this hotel in Rio de Janeiro was a very pleasant and truly memorable experience. From the moment I arrived, I could notice the team’s dedication to providing a warm and efficient welcome. The check-in process was quick, clear, and well-organized, giving me a sense of comfort and peace right from the start.The friendliness of the staff deserves special mention. Every team member I interacted with showed kindness and a genuine willingness to help, always attentive to the guests’ needs. These gestures make a real difference and contribute to the feeling of being well taken care of throughout the entire stay.The room, in addition to being clean and well-organized, was equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay. It was quiet and properly climatized, which ensured good rest. The bed was comfortable, the daily housekeeping well done, and the small details reflected the hotel’s care in offering not just a functional space, but also a welcoming one.Another important aspect was the quality of the services provided in the common areas. Shared spaces were always clean and well maintained, creating a pleasant atmosphere. This attention to the care of common areas enhances the experience beyond the room, contributing to an overall sense of well-being.Altogether, it was a very positive stay. Not only because of the structure and services, but mainly because of the way the hotel values hospitality and quality service. This combination of factors makes me recommend the hotel with confidence and keep it as a top choice for future visits to Rio de Janeiro.
Location, clean lobby
Air conditioner was not working and staff was not very helpful in fixing the problem or offering a solution
The location is prime, as well as the staff!
The hotel itself isn’t really new, including elevator (very small), pool, and sun deck. I feel for the price, the quality of the food and the room should be better.
The hotel location is really great, it's unfortunate that the rooms are not well kept, please be aware that safety is not their main concern. I stayed in the first tower on the second floor and the balcony door, which was over a busy street, did not lock, which didn't make me feel safe or reassured about my belongings, especially knowing Rio's reputation. The second lock on the front door was also broken as it was fixed on a piece of wood that had started to come off.A friend who was staying on the 3rd floor of the same tower had the same problem which makes me think that all rooms on that tower have faulty balcony doors. A 3rd friend staying on the second tower had a functional door. The staff was not helpful that first night as they said they had no other rooms available and the handyman would only be able to come the next morning at 10am. He did fix it the next day but I had to be present and wasted time I could have spent visiting. While packing my bags for check out, I went out to the balcony and when I tried to relock the door behind me, it didn't work anymore. No compensation was offered...Finally, just a detail when compared to the rest, but the bed's fitted sheet didn't cover the bottom of the bed...In conclusion, this could be a good hotel if they cared to invest in it more.
Location is really good and price affordable.
Room and bathroom not clean
The location was excellent. The staff were very helpful and professional. The beds were clean and the overall maintenance of rooms were also good.
Had a great experience staying here for carnival 2025. Great that the breakfast was open til 11 am for those late nights. Loved having access to fresh water and snacks in the lobby.
Only knock would be the pool (it's fine, nothing to write home about) but you're in Rio -- walk 2 blocks to the beach.
location
rooms were a bit old. king bed opened in the middle
The kitchen staff is exceptionally helpful and the food is delicious.
The room was filled with mold, and the bedsheets had some hairs. I went to reception to ask for a change or something and was only dismissed. The room attendant helped me the next day.
location, breakfast
bathroom
Location inbetween Ipanema and Copacabana beaches.
Poorly maintained in parts. Two first floor rooms didn’t have locking balcony doors and the hotel were originally reluctant to move us to a secure room.
I loved the staff they were so nice and helpful. They spoke Spanish and English and we’re just smart and capable people. Whenever I had an issue they did try their best to solve it and I really appreciated that.
Ok this hotel is not at all what I expected and was one of the worst hotels I’ver visited. The first room I had I guess was a budget room and when I arrived the room was dark and small. There was water damage on the wall and the view was terrible. It looked out to a building under construction. To make matters worse the cleaning staff did not clean the room properly as there was a used towel with makeup stains left in the bathroom! The bathroom was also filthy. I stayed there one night and it honestly felt like a prison. It was the worst hotels I’ve room I have ever been in and I had no choice but to ask the concierge to switch my room to the other tower with renovated rooms. The hotel staff was so nice that they switched my room free of charge. I ended up on a renovated room but it had 3 single beds…not ideal but compared the prison I was in before it was like night and day. The room was pretty standard in my opinion but it wasn’t luxury by any means. Unfortunately the hallway reeked of cigarettes most days so that sucked. Also the breakfast was not good I don’t know why people are saying it’s good. There were watery eggs and boiled cut up hot dogs on most days. Not exactly appetizing. Also the WiFi had a bunch of issues and sometimes didn’t work!
We got a room on the 7th floor with a view to the Copacabana fort. The room was spacious and the bed was comfortable. Althought we only stayed for one night, we would definitely consider returning due to it's great location, close to Copacabana and Ipanema.
Great location, nice looking hotel with a good breakfast.
The room is not very spacious and the bed was not very comfortable.
