Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant, with some ups and downs. The rooms were decent in terms of size, but the bathrooms and decor were not up to standards. On the bright side, the service was excellent, and the location was convenient, just a few blocks away from the beach and subway station.
My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The room, while not completely soundproof, was spacious and comfortable, although noisy guests disrupted my sleep. The service was satisfactory, and the location was ideal for enjoying the beach and nearby amenities. The dining options were good with a variety of tasty choices. However, some unhealthy breakfast items were present, and the facilities were adequate but could use improvement.
The hotel had good-sized rooms and the staff was kind and smiling, even during peak check-out time. The location is a big plus, being only 3 blocks from the beach and 2 blocks from the subway. Dining offered a wide variety of tasty choices, and the overall experience was excellent.
The hotel's presidential suite, while good in size, falls short in terms of bathrooms and decor. However, the rooms were comfortable and matched the website's depiction. Service was decent with room service and housekeeping provided. The location, though small, was convenient for Copacabana and close to the beach. Dining options were extensive, and the facilities offered excellent amenities. Pricing was reasonable for the value received.
The hotel was a bit of a mixed bag for me. The rooms were not top of the range, but surprisingly comfy. However, the bathroom was a letdown. The breakfast room was a bit of a shock with just a normal bath tub, but overall, the comfort level was decent.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The location was great with plenty of nearby restaurants, but the room I had on the top floor near the swimming pool was extremely noisy. The rooms, though small for the price, were clean and comfortable. The service was good with various amenities available, but the crowded area made it hard to find a spot to relax. The dining experience was decent with a good variety, although some items were a bit fatty. Overall, it was a comfortable stay with a few drawbacks to consider.
The hotel offers a nice view on the 18th floor, but the rooms are dated and in need of renovation. The breakfast quality is not good, with diluted juices even in the so-called presidential suites. However, the location is pretty good with many restaurants around, and the facilities include a good size pool and a nice shaded area.
The hotel offers a convenient location, ideal for those wanting to explore Copacabana beach and the nearby market areas. While the rooms are smaller than expected and somewhat outdated, the service is good, and the dining experience could use more healthy options. The rooftop pool adds to the appeal of the facilities, making it a decent choice for a stay in Rio.
I had an amazing stay in the Presidential Suite which was incredible, although it was a bit smaller than expected from the pictures. The hotel had a great location, close to the beach and relatively quiet. The service was top-notch, but the dining could have been more varied. Overall, it was a comfortable and relaxing experience with a good view of the city.
The hotel is situated in a great location, just blocks away from Copacabana beach and close to various dining options. The rooms, though not luxurious, are spacious and comfortable with a seating area and lounge seating. The service provided was friendly, and they went the extra mile to address issues promptly. The dining experience offered a superb selection of hot options. Overall, a good value for money stay with minor shortcomings in room amenities.
The hotel offered everything we needed for a pleasant stay, conveniently close to Copacabana beach and the metro train station, making it easy to get around. The rooms were spacious but in need of refurbishment, particularly the bathroom, which felt old-fashioned and had a damp feeling. The dining experience was amazing, with delicious and abundant options, leaving us full all day. However, there were limited healthy cereals available. The service was top-notch, with helpful staff, especially the doorman, making our stay very nice.
The hotel is a mixed bag, with comfortable rooms but some noise issues. On the bright side, appreciated the flexibility with guests. Visible mold in the bathroom was a big letdown.
