Algumas funcionarios nos atenderam de forma espetacular, mas não é uma regra... alguns mal nos cumprimentavam. Em geral, as meninas da limpeza são bem cuidadosas, e, os mensageiros também. Já o pessoal que faz o serviço do bar, um ou outro chega a ser até grosseiro. Quanto as condições, esperava mais de um hotel deste porte. Estive em outros 5 hoteis deste padrão no beira-mar em Copacabana, e devo dizer que este estaria em 4º da minha lista.

Great hotel.

I enjoyed my stay here, it’s the second time I have been here and all the staff are very polite and helpful. It’s very convenient as it’s right on Copacabana beach and there is a lot of activity to choose from in the surrounding area. Great place, would come again.

We reserved a Family Suite which advertised having a king bed for parents plus a twin bed for a kid. What they gave us seemed like an upgrade compared to what was advertised: two adjoining rooms, one with a king bed, the other with two twin beds, so that our kid got her own room with its own bathroom. It did have an ”ocean view” in the sense that it faced a side street, but you could look to one side and see the beach and ocean (and look the other way to see the hill with the Christ.) There was a small swimming pool on the roof. There wasn’t a hot tub, but the roof had excellent views day and night, and the roof level offered additional dining options. There was also a restaurant on the ground floor where we had a decent breakfast buffet every morning, which included fixings to make sandwiches for lunch as well. We also tried dinner in the restaurant once, although that area has lots of other dining options. The location is a beautiful world famous beach in a nice neighborhood, right next to the famous Copacabana Palace. Even in a great part of Rio like this, we were still concerned about crime, and took precautions about where we walked at night and kept valuables such as our wallets in the room safe instead of carrying everything around with us.
