Brazil Accommodation

Great location - right on Ipanema beach, and a block or two from shopping and restaurants. We had great meals at several restaurants within two blocks. Enjoy a stroll on the beach - it's easy enough to walk to Leblon or Copacabana beach. Taxis in Rio are plentiful, and we also took a bus downtown. (The Metro station is a few blocks away, but unfortunately, closed for renovation during 2013). From the hotel, it was <$30 US to get to Cristo Redentor or Sugarloaf. This is a nice small hotel (6 rooms on each of the 15 floors) and the breakfast is first-class. From the rooftop pool/exercise center, you'll get great views of the city.

very nice hotel in great location. staff were all very helpful and any queries were attended to very promptly. rooms were a decent size and very comfortable. lovely breakfast in devassa cafe in the morning

Excellent option for Rio downtown and Santos Dumont Airport. Arrived at 22:00 after a long flight from LHR and had my luggage collected from taxi by doorman on arrival. Quick check it in, no credit card asked as rate had been prepaid via Expedia. Nice clean and more than adequate Superior Executive room with large bathtub in modern bathroom. Great terrace on 22nd floor, nice service, cold beers overlooking city centre. Good breakfast with good variety of hot and cold items. Staff nice and welcoming. 5 minutes by cab to SDU airport. Would definitely recommend and stay again. Perhaps would book a Superior room next time, slightly cheaper with no bathtub. Super clean, I must say. Book without hesitation.

Very good hotel overall. Its in the city center though the neighborhood is not very safe. The rooms were clean, staff were professional.

Great Location, even so it is in front of Ave Paulista, no problems with noise. Great distribution of the room.

Rooms were beautiful, clean, comfortable, and the hotel had excellent service. Nice, quiet neighborhood within walking distance of shops, restaurants, cafes, and Avenida Paulista. I have absolutely no complaints.

Really good quality hotel with excellent facilities - highly recommended

Hotel was excellent - rooftop pool has wonderful views. Rooms and facilities are superb. Staff very helpful. Great location right in the middle of historic Salvador.
