Reviews and Ratings
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were a bit outdated with some maintenance issues, but the view was lovely. The service was top-notch despite the pricey taxis. The location was fantastic right by the beach, and the dining was average. The facilities were decent overall.
My stay at this hotel was a mixed experience. The room had a lovely view, but there were some issues like a balcony door that didn't close properly and a gap above the door providing unintended ventilation. The rooms do need updating and more amenities, especially considering the price point. The service was top-notch with the restaurant staff being very helpful in recommending tours. The location was fabulous, close to both Ipanema and Copacabana Beach, with plenty of dining options nearby. The dining experience was average, not living up to the expectations of a 5-star hotel. However, the hotel does offer homegrown organic fruits, a nice touch. Overall, the facilities were adequate but could be improved to match the expectations of a luxury stay.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were a bit outdated and the swimming pool could use a refurb, but on the bright side, we had a partial sea view and probably the best view of Copacabana Beach. The service was a bit slow at times and not always the friendliest, but they used to offer more attentive service before. The location was fantastic, right at the heart of Copacabana with plenty of dining options around. The dining experience left much to be desired with repetitive and basic food choices, but at least we could enjoy fresh unlimited pancakes.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of pleasant surprises and a few drawbacks. The comfortable rooms, Nespresso coffee maker in the Oceanview room, and breakfast on the 30th floor were highlights. However, the dusty room was a bit of a letdown. The exceptional reception service during arrival and departure added a special touch to my overall experience.
The hotel's rooms, though outdated, provide a unique experience with minimal ocean views and quirky snack selections. The service was attentive but had some communication issues. The location is unbeatable, offering easy access to Copacabana Beach. The dining options were varied but crowded during peak times.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The room had a great view and was very clean, but there were some issues with the balcony door not closing properly. The service was friendly and helpful, especially Neide who stood out. The location was amazing, right across the street from the beach, but the dining experience was lacking in variety and quality. The facilities overall were satisfactory.
Wow, this hotel is a mixed bag! The rooms have comfy beds but a strange smell on the 24th floor. The view of Copacabana beach and Sugarloaf mountain is breathtaking, but the interior feels outdated.
The hotel's location is simply unbeatable, right on Copacabana beach and a stone's throw from Ipanema, offering a fantastic view. The rooms have a nice layout but lack proper maintenance, leading to some cracks and noise issues attributed to the wind and sea. The service is a bit of a mixed bag with a friendly staff, yet some inappropriate behavior was noted. The dining options are mediocre with limited choices and unappealing food presentation. However, the facilities are satisfactory, enhancing the overall stay.
The hotel is located on the safe side of Copacabana and near Ipanema, making it perfect for beach lovers. The rooms come with balconies, offering a special check-in experience and access to the business center on the 27th floor. However, the dining experience could be improved with more variety in breakfast options.
Despite paying extra to stay till 18:00, the rooms were old and neglected, not matching any pictures on Booking. On the bright side, the beach view was great.
My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were comfortable, and having a Nespresso coffee maker in the Oceanview room and breakfast on the 30th floor added a special touch to my experience. The reception service on arrival and departure was exceptional.
I couldn't have asked for a better view from my room, overlooking Copacabana towards the fort. The room was lovely with an amazing view, although the balcony door had a little issue closing properly. The gap in the brickwork provided some natural ventilation, which was a plus on a cool day in Rio.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were spacious with a great view of Copacabana Beach, but I had issues with the power points. The service was lacking, with rude and unhelpful staff. The location, right in front of Copacabana beach, was convenient but resulted in extra costs for missed appointments. The dining area was crowded, but the food was good. Overall, some positives and negatives to consider.
My stay at the hotel was fantastic. The rooms were spacious and impeccably clean, although there was a delay in preparing one. The service was top-notch, with the staff going above and beyond to assist with restaurant bookings and even returning a lost phone. The location right in front of the beach was unbeatable, offering an awesome view of the ocean. The dining experience was pleasant, but there were some issues with long lines and crowded areas. Overall, a great value for the money with a few minor inconveniences.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. While the location was great, right across from the Copacabana beach and near various restaurants, the rooms were in need of renovation and lacked basic amenities like a coffee kettle. The service, however, was top-notch, with staff always attentive and ready to assist. The dining options were enjoyable, especially with a variety of bakery items available.
