Búzios hotellit lähellä Praia dos Ossos

Plussat: The location is amazing overlooking the bay. We had an ocean front room and it was lovely waking up looking out over the water without even having to get out of bed. Lots of bars and restaurants within metres of the hotel. Great cocktails at the hotel bar while having an evening swim in the warm pool. Staff were incredible. Everything was perfect (apart from the weather!)

Plussat: Well decorated Nice heated pool

Miinukset: Bad smell from some cleaning products in the room and in the hotel areas. It was almost unbearable and we had to change room cause the smell was too strong. It felt like the hotel did the best not to change our room and only after we said we will cancel the booking they “upgraded” to a room without smell (we are celebrating honeymoon so getting upgraded shouldn’t be that an issue..)

Plussat: Staff Facilities Location Views Food Pools

Miinukset: It’s not cheap and laundry was overpriced so beware.

Plussat: Total lovely place, people, homely and relaxed ambience, stylish and lovely furniture, clean, tidy. Great coffee (nice and hot). Good hairdryer that actually dries your hair rather than some of the waste of space hairdryers in other places. Great location right by Bridget statue so mins away from town. Be warned there are steps down which are totally fine but maybe if you were slightly older you might want to consider that. Kinda strange to have to ring be 'let in' rather than to take a key out with you but this actually makes you feel super safe, there is someone on the desk 24 hours a day so its not a problem. Buzios feels like a million miles away from any trouble - but don't be complacent there are still police patrols constantly which could well be the reason for what seemed like a super safe area. There is a club near by that rocks till 4 in the morning.... but this only happened one night out of the 6 that we stayed there

Miinukset: As you need to use a bin for soiled loo roll there really needs to be another bin in the rooms for rubbish and recycling. One small bin in the bathroom is not enough and when you consider what that bin contains you would not wish the job of sieving through that for recycling of plastic bottles etc. Sun beds are pretty uncomfortable and could easily be upgraded with a mattress of sorts

Plussat: Breakfast was good, nice and fresh each day. Staff were super friendly. Bar tenders were exceptional mixologists!

Plussat: The breakfast was great, and the hot pool with the magnificent view is a charm, best place to stay in Buzios !

Miinukset: Our room was humid - don’t know why..

Plussat: Amazing view. Sunset was breathtaking!

Plussat: Amazing place w great staff and location! Highly recommend! Douglas at reception was wonderful!

Plussat: The hotel is really pretty. The views from the pool are breathtaking. Also the hotel is very well located near two fabulous beaches

Plussat: I love this place!

Plussat: The staff was great! The location was perfect - walking distance both to a couple of beachs and to the famous "Rua das Pedras" with bars and restaurants. Nice pool with great food and service.

Miinukset: The shower and flushing toilet didn't have enough power.

Plussat: It is a great location and it is clean and tidy. Shower with plenty of water, cold and hot. Wifi works very well. Personnel was absolutely great, always ready to assist, with smile on their faces.

Miinukset: The a/c (which is VERY important in Búzios) was very noisy and spoiled the experience of being in a small place. The bed was great but the pillows were hard and felt like low quality. But, as I said it was spotless clean. One point they REALLY need to improve is the breakfast experience. Not enough choice of fruits, breads were old, the butter seemed also old and passed. The breakfast room was awfully cold from the a/c and unconfortable. Because the entire room in porcelane finish, the sounds reverberate and it was really noisy when full. In Búzios, the mosquitoes are nocturnal. There are few ones during the day, but these can be dealt with citronela candles. The breakfast should be set in an outdoor location with better care to details, confort.

Plussat: Location is amazing! Staff is fantastic. Breakfast was delicious! The rooms are cozy and simple with good air conditioning and comfortable beds and pillows. Not luxury by any means.

Plussat: Nice hotel but no luxury like the price might suggest. Very nice location right by the beach and in walking distance to nice restaurants and downtown Buzios as well as some other nice beaches. Breakfast was good but it seemed that on some days they used stuff from the days before.

Miinukset: It is a bit overpriced for what you get. Rooms would need some loving care and bathrooms are rather old. It’s all ok and still a nice hotel but to expensive for what you get. At that price you would except a bit more luxury and not just a nice basic hotel.

Plussat: Perfect location to explore Buzios - nice little pool with cocktails and decent breakfast just across the road from a harbour/beach with water taxis going to other (nicer) beaches.

Miinukset: The only option for three people was the rather uninspiring “superior” room - perfectly comfortable but no sense of luxury at all - we didn’t mind as we didn’t spend much time in the room

Plussat: bed is wide enough for two people can sleep together. it was convenient to reach to the beach easily. the backdoor was next to the beach and many restaurants. warm water is comfortable.

Miinukset: air conditioner is too old with noise breakfast is not excellent. there is few things to eat. if they have special place to make omelet I can feel more comfortable. the depth of the pool is just 130 cm for all area. I felt somewhat shallow. Internet is not free. price level is higher than expectation for all season.

Plussat: The staff were very helpful, particularly with the transfer to and from Buzios/Rio

Miinukset: No drawers and very little cupboard space for clothes. Fine for a day or two but not good for a longer period. This is quite normal for Brazilian hotels

Plussat: breakfast is great

Miinukset: internet in the room is not free. this is 2019 and totally wrong

Plussat: The location is excellent, it’has a fabulous pool. The breakfast was good, offering a variety of hot and cold food

Miinukset: It was extremely busy because of high season , parking our car was challenging

Plussat: Very good experience, amazing staff and facilities

Miinukset: Chief-receptionist (woman) was terribly unpleasant and gross. She tried to to falsify my signature.

Plussat: Rooms are spacious, the balcony is big and had a really nice view. The hotel also has a private beach and they give you free chairs, cover and beach towels for free. Staff was very nice and professional, especially Debora at the reception!! She was a sweetheart and helped us with anything we needed.

Miinukset: Nothing, it was great

Plussat: Everything from the location to the staff who where buy the way excellent and very friendly perfect choice for a break in a quiet part of buzios

Miinukset: N/a

Plussat: Staff at reception were lovely, access to beach was really easy and view from our rokm was amazing.

Miinukset: Staff at breakfast were very unfriendly

Plussat: Location, very close to the beach, and hotel infraestructure.

Miinukset: everything was fine

Plussat: Location next to the beach is absolutely stunning. Beautiful view of you get a sea view room. Beautiful little private path down to the most perfect beach.

Miinukset: Would have been better if the WiFi worked in the bedrooms

Plussat: Very nice view and nice rooms

Miinukset: The bathroom has no door especially on the shower side - it was awkward as I was visiting with friends

Plussat: Honestly, nothing. Our worst experience in an hotel ever. Before you proceed to book in this hotel, PLEASE READ THIS REVIEW.

Miinukset: We booked a Standard Room for 7 nights for vacation and had an awful experience. 1) Rooms are not as they are shown in this pictures and the stuff (specially the owners) won't take care of you as a guest, once you paid, you're done. We got a very deteriored room with view to a roof (not what is published here). So we kindly requested the owners (who serve the hotel, Bruno who replies to reviewers is one of them) to change our room; after 2 attemps they told me they could change the room on day 3 (after the weekend). As they didn't give us another option, and as we already paid, we had to accept. On day 3, we got another room (with parcial view to the garden) but again, not what is promoted in pictures. 2) They left us in the room towels with blood stains (I uploaded the pictures), the mini bar was all rusty, there were no shampoo in any of the days we stayed, not even glasses for the water, rusty safe box, the air conditioner was extremely noisy, the TV is from 90s, broken bathroom faucets, chairs and table also very rusty, not to mention all the perforated bed linen which they didn't change in 7 days. In addition, we were without internet in the room for 2 nights (and reported it) 3) During breakfast, my girfriend left 1/5 of his dish with eggs. One of the owners (a lady) come to us asking "why we were not going to eat it and saying we don't want to do this" (not eating everything). My girlfriend was full and eggs were not good, so we were like "ugh? Ok sorry for that, but we are full, not going to eat them". She was angry so took our dish and trash it while complaining with his personnel. Finally, last day, we ordered a pizza (because it was raining) and we sit to eat in a table (same they serve breakfast). The laidy approached us again and tell us to leave as we were not allowed to eat in ghe hotel (in a pretty bad manner actually).

Plussat: Location

Miinukset: Ants and mosquitoes. In your windows, you need to place screens with tiny holes, so that insects can not penetrate.

Plussat: Amazing location- less than 5 mins from centre Two great pools onsite and were able to use after we checked out Good value for money

Miinukset: Breakfast was a little basic and coffee from a self serve machine

Plussat: Breakfast. Location.

Miinukset: No comments.

Plussat: There was not much to like, they had someone at her front desk to check us in late night, and a guy who helped with the coffee who was polite, friendly and had a nice smile. I’m stretching for something nice to say about this place.

Miinukset: The property is not as advertised, the rooms were absolutely discussing. Aside from bugs in the room as some other reviewers stated, the curtains were dingy and covered in mold, as were the corners of the walls, there was creamy white stain on my comforter, the liners are old and raspy and the end table next to be bed looked like it hadn’t been cleaned for some time, there was grime and a white powder substance on it. The pleather head boards look like something out of 80’s adult film, there was noisy construction nearby, limited parking and the breakfast area was a disaster, there was grime and dirt all over the floor, eggs were soggy, we had a quick coffee and went off site for breakfast. The icing on the cake was probably when they asked us to show them the room and and the door handle fell off of the door to my mothers room.... you couldn’t have scripted it better. They offered to give us new rooms after telling me that my room was the best room in he house... strange logic.... Of course their management is nowhere to be found when booking attempted to resolve the issue with them. I caution you against making your stay at Hotel Barra da Lagoa, please learn from our stay. We actually stayed one night and left and paid for entire other hotel regardless of whether or not they would refund us.

Plussat: Good breakfast and great price

Miinukset: Hotel met expectations
