Breakfast was terrific and we found the staff helpful and accommodating. Internet was quite slow and the room was not as clean as I like. Additionally, both hotel and neighborhood are quite noisy. The hotel has a reasonably good location not too far from major sites.

I'm sure it was a great hotel a couple of years ago. It's still a save and mostly clean place to stay and the stuff is friendly but don't expect something inspiring. They serve a good breakfast and the the location is good an central.

Although not the most welcoming hotel we've ever stayed at - it seemed to be more focused on the business sector rather than the tourist market - it was clean with good facilities and the reception staff were efficient. Good breakfast.
Good location, adjacent to the Metro (Carioca), Cathedral, tram to Santa Teresa, ferries and museums, Arcos da Lapa etc. The bus from the airport also stops nearby on Av Rio Branco. There are plenty of places to eat within five minutes walk.
Only concerm would be that the area is quite quiet in the evenings so we tended to not stay out too late if we were walking back.

Stayed 1 night in a 3 bed rooom, and was very pleased. Booked 1 day ahead (online), which worked smoothly. Staff was englishspeaking and very friendly. Clean and nice rooms, and a pool on Floor 13 which was nice- the view fantastic! Neighbourhood was OK, little dodgy, but close to city centre, and airport, most importantly.
Try Lunch here- it's amazing, and a great bargain!
