Não voltaria
Pros:

Simplesmente não consegui nem hospedar !
fechei reserva só dia 18/02 com eles, devido ao almoço que fizeram para apuração de votos da Sapucaí , cheguei às 13 hrs no hotel para hospedagem de check in às 15 hrs e as 17 hrs eles ainda não tinham nem limpado o quarto ! A fila para o check in é mais de 2 horas, com centenas de pessoas no salão do hotel e apenas 2 funcionários! Todo mundo super irritado com a mega lotação e desorganização por parte do hotel , inclusive tinham crianças ja chorando e nenhuma acomodação liberada ! Foi uma pessima experiência, eles me colocaram para tomar banho na academia para tentar esperar liberação do quarto ! Um caos e funcionários despreparados ! No fim cancelei minha reserva por falta de paciência ; assim como outros fizeram !

Cons:

Da falta de preparo do hotel para receber os hóspedes ! Tudo lotado parecendo um clube público

Great location. Nice service but not best value
Pros:

Lovely spa and most team members were good or great. Disappointing amount of noise and interruptions or limitations to the experience without pre-warning, which was my expectation given the price. E,g pool not available due to a conference, loud maintenance work/building work etc. Having said that, the hotel is nice overall but not best value for money when considering all round

Great location.. breakfast and internet connection should have been better!
Pros:

My stay at the Fairmont Rio had some positives, but also several drawbacks. The check-in process was difficult due to a language barrier, and the breakfast à la carte menu was non existent. The internet connection was unstable and kept dropping. Housekeeping was inconsistent and there was no welcome fruit or chocolate, which I expected at this level (compared to Fairmont Manila & Istanbul).

The gym felt like it was in a basement and had outdated equipment. On the positive side, the hotel has a beautiful location with a great view, and the room itself was clean and well-maintained.

Péssima, não voltaria e não vale o preço!
Pros:

Somente a localização.

Cons:

Pagamos uma diária caríssima pelo quarto que é bem mais ou menos.

Fomos acordados no domingo as 9h00 com barulho de furadeira!!!

Ligamos na recepção e avisaram que não podiam fazer nada porque era do shopping. Enfim, na saída voltamos a reclamar e pedimos uma compensação, porque pagamos um valor alto para descansar e queríamos dormir até mais tarde no domingo após um casamento na noite anterior.

Eles estornaram nosso jantar em compensação, mas se não tivéssemos pedido não teriam oferecido nada.

Um hotel que se diz 5 estrelas no mínimo o gerente tinha que ter nos pedido desculpas e oferecido algo espontaneamente para compensar a péssima diária que tivemos no local. O gerente sequer se dignou a nos atender, mesmo tendo feito a reclamação e pedido ao recepcionista para falar com ele.

O café da manhã é desorganizado e nem é tudo isso, cobram 200,00 a cabeça e é bem mais ou menos. Pedimos para trocar de mesa, porque estávamos sob o sol e não foi permitido. 5 minutos depois trocaram uma mesa na nossa frente. Enfim, é mais pela localização porque atendimento de luxo foi ZERO.

Hotel totalmente feito para pegar gringo e mais nada, não recomendamos e nem voltaríamos nem de graça.

Impactful building work and construction
Pros:

There’s major building work here, but it’s not advertised and they aren’t informing people in advance. We were told it is a marketing decision.

They are replacing the balconies and it looks like it’s going to go on for months.

Currently this affects the sea view rooms - so you pay for that advertised view and you’re treated to a monstrosity in your line of sight.

Daily banging - heavy drilling - angle grinding.

All for the high cost of this hotel and the extra paid for the view.

You can shut out the sight but not the noise.

Dont even think of relaxing by the front pool - even noise cancelling headphones can’t compete.

Remember : they’ve not advertised this or told people in advance at this time.

Guest services manager did call and listened to our concerns and offered a token which was appreciated but doesn’t make it right.

We were also offered to pay a negotiated £100 extra per night to upgrade which would have changed the view but not the house.

The rooms are nice. 75% of the service is top notch, especially the breakfast staff and people serving around the pool.

The hostesses at times guarding the ropes could be friendlier and there was inconsistencies with room replenishments.

The rear relaxation pool is quieter but you can still hear the co structuring from the front and surrounding buildings also being renovated.

You can’t do anything about other buildings but a hotel such as Fairmont should do better.

Make special happen never seemed so far off the mark.

When it’s done it’ll be fabulous but that’s a long way off
