Location is great and staff went above and beyond to give us early check in as we’ve arrived early in the morning at the hotel. Breakfast was really good too.

Glauce Abkhazia, ​ Georgia

Perfect location easy access to the beach and safe area

Sebastien Netherlands

The attendance were super proactive. I arrived about 2am, thirteen hours before my checkin. The attendant gave me a room until my room be ready to use, so I slept until the next day and at 9am they called me offering my room. But note my checking would be only in 6 hours and I was being treated like I had a reservation. My car was in the parking lot and I didn’t have to pay for 3 nights only for 2 even I had used it. They didn’t charge me anything for the extra night in the room too. After that they allowed me to do the late checkout and again they didn’t charge me. All the employees were super cool and receptive. Definitely the best hotel service I ever had in Rio de Janeiro.

Gabriela Brazil

      “overall nice stay”
      • • Leisure trip
      • • Solo traveler
      • • Stayed 5 nights

      Our sink was broken upon check in (water on the floor). The property fixed it but after one day the silicone broke again. When we arrived one of the 2 elevators broke, which sometimes caused queues. After a couple of days the second elevator could be fixed. I would have expected better facilities in the room given the price and given that it is a 4* hotel (curtains were quite old etc.)

      We stayed 5 nights at this property and mostly liked the location - close to both Copacabana and Ipanema beaches in an area with good restaurant and bar options. On the rooftop there is a small pool and sun beds, which was nice. Our window had a view onto Favela - that was quite exotic at the beginning. The breakfast was very good and the staff was always nice and friendly (which is typical for Brazil).

      Our particular room looked to be updated but I had trouble with the toilet- wouldn't flush (which was fixed by maintenance) and the knobs for the shower and the bathroom sink faucet kept falling off :/

      Our stay was for 4 nights. We were literally a block from the beach. Hotel staff were nice and accommodating. The hotel was nice overall but they are in the process of renovating units. There is a refrigerator in the room which i used to store the bottled water that I bought from a nearby store. The hotel is located in a decent area with restaurants, stores, cafes and also close to the mall. The breakfast was ok. Typical brazilian breakfast with alot of carb based choices. The coffee/cappuccino machine was good.

      No bar. No drinks or other service at the pool.

      Pool area was excellent in terms of seating, shade and cleanliness. Location, 50 metres from the beach, was terrific

      Our room looked nothing like the beautiful rooms that are shown on the website and here. I even booked an executive suite to make sure we were getting the best room. Whilst we had plenty of room, the decor was tired and dated. The rooftop space leaves a lot to be desired and we didn’t sit up their once. Equally, the gym is tiny and almost impossible to work out in. We didn’t eat breakfast so can’t comment on that. During our stay the lift was also broken so it took ages to get up and down from reception to our room.

      The property is super close to the beach and within walking distance of all the shops and bars of Ipanema. It’s also really easy and cheap to get a cab and / Uber to other areas of Rio. The staff were friendly and happy to help.

      Perfect location. 30 seconds to Copacabana beach and walking distance to Ipanema. On a very busy intersection, fortunately well insulated. Some rooms with more decoration than others, all nice. Very good showers. Very good breakfast. We were there twice. Nice stay.

      Nothing

      The staff are brilliant & attentive, the area is perfect for copacabana & ipanema, copacabana is literally a 1 minute walk & ipanema is 10 minutes. The breakfast was the best during our month travelling Brazil & the room was very comfortable & modern. If we visit rio again we'll definitely stay here.

      Relatively noisy location and the bed sheet didn't fit properly.

      Customer service at this hotel was 100%. From the minute we arrived to the time we left, the staff couldn't be more helpful and accommodating.

      I suspect the super-powerful showers maybe responsible for lack of hot water at times

      Excellent value, great location, lovely helpful staff. The most powerful shower ever experienced!
