Frequently asked questions

When is the best time to go to Benfica?
The best time to visit Benfica is during the dry season, which runs from May to September, offering pleasant weather for exploring.

During these months, you'll experience less rainfall and comfortably warm temperatures, typically ranging from 20°C to 28°C. This makes it ideal for enjoying outdoor activities and sightseeing without the intense humidity or heavy downpours common in other parts of the year.

For those planning to combine their visit with events in the wider Rio de Janeiro area, the shoulder months of April and October are also good options.
Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?
Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline − this is often within 24 to 48 hours of your scheduled arrival. If you have a non-refundable booking, it might still be possible to receive a refund if you cancel it within 24 hours of booking. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use our 'Fully refundable property' filter during your search to find the right Benfica hotel for you.
How can I save on a hotel booking in Benfica with Expedia?
One Key™—Expedia's free travel rewards program—gives you instant access to discounts with Member Prices on Benfica hotels. Plus, you'll earn OneKeyCash™* on eligible bookings to use on future trips. Booking an Expedia hotel and flight package is another great way to save, where bundling can result in significant savings. *Excludes taxes and fees. OneKeyCash is not redeemable for cash and can only be used on Expedia and other participating brands.
How much is the nightly rate for a hotel in Benfica?
