Pros:

Emplacement. Proche de la plage.

Cons:

Hotel cher pour les prestations fournies. Chambre peu isolée phoniquement. Beaucoup de bruit dans le couloir et proche de l'ascenseur.
Problème de machine à café dysfonctionnelle récurrent au petit déjeuner
Pas de café ni de thé ni d'eau offert dans la chambre.

Pas digne d'un novotel !

Pros:

J'ai aimé l'emplacement de l'hôtel, accès rapide à la plage , plusieurs restaurants à proximité.

Cons:

L'ascenseur 10 minutes pour rejoindre son étage à chaque fois car 2 ascenseurs principaux pour 21 étages , le petit déjeuner qui n'était pas bon certe du choix mais insipide. Les chambres vétustes miroir qui rouille , bac à douche les joints sont noirs les murs sont pleins de tâches et les peintures défraîchies. Pour finir le séjour on commande un taxi à un agent de l'hôtel qui nous assure que celui ci arrive pour l'aéroport il ne l'a jamais fait, heureusement après attente un des collègues à fait son travail et nous a trouvé un taxi.
Rooftop avec belle vue, Pina colada avec la tranche d'ananas avec un vers dedans ... Le personnel du rooftop absolument pas sympathique. Je ne recommande pas cet hôtel

O bairro do Leme é uma boa localização no Rio de Janeiro e o Novotel fica a poucos metros da praia. Sempre há ofertas de taxi e é um lugar tranquilo, sem barulho.

Wenn man mal in Rio gelebt hat, so wie ich, dann ist es traurig zu sehen, wie die Stadt runterkommt.
Pros:

Die Lage ist super, das Empfangspersonal war beim einchecken sehr freundlich, beim auschecken nicht ganz so...

Cons:

Der Frühstücksraum ist viel zu klein für die Anzahl der Gäste und die Verwendung von 'Agua Sanitária' in Teilen des Hotels war hart an der Grenze der Gesundheitsgefährdung
