Experiência incrível com rooftop e pequeno-almoço de excelência!
Pros:

A vista da piscina no rooftop sobre toda a praia de Copacabana é excelente, proporcionando uma experiência incrível que excede as expectativas. A equipa é extremamente simpática e atenciosa. O quarto é silencioso, com um colchão muito confortável, ótimo isolamento acústico e blackout perfeito nas janelas. Os produtos de higiene (champô e amaciador) são de excelente qualidade. O pequeno-almoço é soberbo, com serviço irrepreensível, muita variedade, espumante e fruta fresca com ótimo aspeto. Mesmo com um evento político em frente ao hotel, tudo decorreu de forma organizada.

Cons:

O quarto sem vista é relativamente pequeno e está virado apenas para o interior do edifício. A fragrância ambiente do hotel, embora agradável, pode tornar-se demasiado intensa para pessoas mais sensíveis. Além disso, tudo no quarto é pago à parte, incluindo as cápsulas de café; oferecer o café além da água ficaria muito bem a um hotel desta categoria.

Pros:

Staff was helpful, the location was good

Cons:

A sewage manhole directly outside the hotel entrance emitted an overwhelming stench, so severe that even the doormen were wearing masks. This raises serious health and sanitation concerns. My room faced this area, making it impossible to open the window
In 2026, charging for in-room coffee while providing neither a kettle nor complimentary tea is simply unacceptable.

Confirming the many previous positive reviews
Pros:

Location: Although we’d thought Ipanema/Leblon would be best location - Turns out this end of Copacabana would be our future choice, lots of nice restaurants within short walk from hotel. Our side sea view room was spacious and though traditional in style, it had been renovated to a high standard. The staff were excellent in all our interactions - credit to a very good training regime.

Cons:

Not the Hotels fault, but, there was often a very strong sewage smell in the street - suspect a nearby pumping station.
