An exceptional city centre stay.
Pros:

Our 2 night stay at this beautifully renovated property was excellent, made especially so by the friendly and helpful staff. With a delightful garden it is very much an oasis in the city centre. Our room was extremely spacious and comfortable, and although offering only light bites the food both during the day and at breakfast was very good.

Cons:

Nothing

Estadia sensacional, voltarei com certeza quando tiver oportunidade.
Pros:

Funcionários muito bem educados, rouparia excelente, decoração impecável.

Cons:

Comida do almoço, as porções poderiam ser mais bem servidas. Ou ter uma opção mais "pesada" para quem está com muita fome.

Pros:

Der Service war einmalig. Man war nicht nur eine Nummer, wie in anderen Luxushotels. Es fühlte sich wie Zuhause an. Es war die richtige Entscheidung dieses Hotel zu buchen und können es uneingeschränkt empfehlen. Die Hotels an der Copacabana sind unserer Meinung das Geld nicht wert und überbewertet und man kann keine 5min liegen ohne das ein Verkäufer kommt. Bucht daher bitte dieses Hotel als eure Oase im Rio!

Really so wonderful - an oasis in an urban setting
Pros:

This hotel is spectacular -
The breakfast was delicious and the staff accommodating. The rooms are huge with a balcony and there is lots of extra space to use if needed. The pool and the planting are divine - really lovely watching hummingbirds dive into the pool and fly away. A very special place to stay.

A Hidden Gem of Calm and Elegance in Rio
Pros:

We had a wonderful stay at Villa Paranaguá, a beautiful boutique hotel full of charm and character. The entire staff was incredibly friendly and attentive — from reception to the bar and the breakfast team.
Everything was perfect and it’s truly an ideal place to relax after a long day of sightseeing in Rio. The atmosphere is calm, elegant, and welcoming.
The hotel is not located in the main tourist area, but that actually adds to its appeal. Ubers are plentiful, inexpensive, and make getting around very easy.
Highly recommended if you’re looking for a peaceful, stylish place to stay — a real gem hidden in Rio.

Exceptional boutique hotel on the hill top of Santa Teresa
Pros:

This is a spectacular boutique hotel in Rio. The staff are outstanding. The “bar food” (no big restaurant) is excellent: French, delicious, interesting, well presented. The ambiance is architectural interesting, attention to small detail, artistic, lovely, welcoming. An outstanding decor. The outside is beautifully designed with gardens, seating area, pool area, outdoor dining: all with a flair for landscaping and decor. The views of Rio from this hilltop location are spectacular. This is a hidden gem. Do not miss it!

Cons:

Nothing. If you are in a wheelchair or frail, you cannot stay here. There is no elevator and the gorgeous, spiral staircase with marble steps winds up to the floors. There is a beautiful railing, but if you are frail, this is not for you.

Séjour extraordinaire dont nous nous souviendrons longtemps
Pros:

Nou avons passé une nuit en famille dans cet établissement extraordinaire. Tout était parfait! Le personnel pro et bienveillant, l'hôtel dans une magnifique demeure coloniale, le SPA, la piscine immense, le restauration très bien. Les propriétaires sont également fort sympathiques. Mention spéciale pour la réceptionniste qui a tout fait pour rendre notre séjour au top. Tout le monde était très avenant et l'accueil personnalisé quand on arrive est très appréciable. La déco de la demeure est sans faute, tout est de bon gout.

Cons:

RIEN
