Rio de Janeiro hotellit lähellä RIOSUL

Plussat: The barman along with the entire swimming pool service was expectional. They made the experience above there so relaxing and peaceful. Also, kindness and efficiency of the repectionists transmits to me tranquillity and safety.

Miinukset: The bed covers sometimes were not fully clean, as well as the bathroom towels.

Plussat: Breakfast was delicious. Rooftop pool very nice to chill.

Plussat: The rooftop pool area was fabulous - never had an issue getting a sun lounger and incredible views of Copacabana, Sugar Loaf and Christ the Redeemer. Food and drink were reasonable and very good should you want something easy. The staff were very friendly in all aspects of communication.

Miinukset: The building was very run down outside of the main lobby and the pool area. Everywhere smelt of stale water and had a general feeling of humidity. We stayed at the Fairmont on Copacabana after Porto Bay and this wasn't an issue for that hotel. Rooms were dirty and VERY noisy - its easily the loudest hotel we have ever stayed in. When you check in ask if they have a wedding and request to move from the 19th floor should you be on it, whilst the views are amazing the noise kept us up all night. After a flight from Europe we were exhausted and after calling the front desk twice to look into the noise nothing was done. We stayed at the property during the beginning of the COVID-19 issues, and while the front desk were happy to answer any questions, the property did very little to forward think for their guests. We left the property to go exploring one morning having no idea that all government building had shut to ask what was going on when we returned and the front desk said we should have told them we were leaving. I have never been asked to tell a hotel to let them know when we leave - realistically the hotel should have had notices in communal places around the hotel or dropped notes under guests doors to let them know the latest. While we could watch the news - we are not Portuguese speakers so could only really get European and North American news. Appreciate this is a VERY rare development that a hotel would need to deal with but lots of easily solutions would have helped guests.

Plussat: Very helpful and friendly staff. Outstanding breakfast buffet with gorgeous view! Very clean rooms. Great location to walk to the beach (hotel provides chairs, towels,etc.). Many nice restaurants in walking distance. Breathtaking bar on 20th floor. We felt always very safe!

Miinukset: Can't think of anything!

Plussat: Exceptional breakfast. Wonderful fruit! Great selections. For dinner, the restaurant is excellent.

Plussat: Breakfast was fantastic. Great choice of healthy juices, fruit, cereals, porridge, pastries, cold meets and cheese and hot English breakfast. Location great right on beach front, plenty of bars restaurants and shops nearby...room was clean, comfortable bed and great view from the balcony of the beach and Christ the redeemer.

Miinukset: Everything was great apart from the facilities were closed last 3 days of holiday due to coronavirus.

Plussat: Great location at Copacana beach and we had a great room view over the whole beach. The rooftop pool is quite nice, although a bit small. Breakfast ist very nice with a big choice. The staff was very nice.

Miinukset: Our room was not super clean. In addition, there were no sockets in the room to charge your phone; only in the bathroom.

Plussat: Friendly staff, beautiful views from balconies,rooftop pool, and gym. Good food, reasonable prices, great bar service at pool.

Miinukset: The rooms were slightly disappointing, but still reasonably priced. Maid service may have skimped on certain things, but overall staff was very respectful and attentive (even if there were some language barriers).

Plussat: Good location on Copacabana seafront with own beach facilities which are overseen. Lovely roof top pool and bar/food with views of sugarloaf and the Redeemer. Friendly efficient staff and good restaurant and breakfasts. Fabulous rooms overlooking the beach and although this is a busy beach area and noisy outside once inside room you are unaware of it. Would definitely stay again.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: We loved the breakfast. Lot of variates and options. The Suite itself was spacious and the beachfront view was really nice. Staff is probably the best I saw in Brazil during our travel of one month. Rooftop bar has nice athmosphere and good drinks!

Miinukset: Nothing to complain really. We should have stayed longer.

Plussat: Helpful staff, good location. In a city with many hotels of varying standards the Porto Bay Rio is a safe and comfortable choice.

Miinukset: It rained!

Plussat: The location of the hotel is very good and we had a large bedroom with a wonderful view over Copocabana beach

Plussat: It is right next to Copacabana Palace. It's on the main street, with access to Brazil's sites

Miinukset: Service, they still have a lot of work there. The elevators are slow, and surprisingly stupid (on several occasions it would just pass my level without stopping, and I'm on the 18th floor). On several occasions I found them to lack resources to help with their quality of service.

Plussat: Helpful and english speaking front desk. Magnificent location and view on the Copacabana beach. Good breakfast. Rooms were very comfortable, clean and new.

Miinukset: Nothing at all.

Plussat: It is a great location

Miinukset: It was extremly expensive for what you offer. Just an average room for a very high price.

Plussat: The location was excellent for holiday atmosphere in close proximity to all the major sights. I particularly enjoyed the free use of the bicycle especially as the safe track was just across the road. Cycling the length of Copacabana beach was a holiday highlight for me! Nobody back at work will believe I did it!

Miinukset: I was disapointed there was not coffee-making facilities in the room - especially being in Brazil! It would also have been handy for an iron to be provided in room.

Plussat: The rooftop pool has excellent views of the beach and the breakfast was great!

Miinukset: The room was a bit small and the bath very small given the price paid.

Plussat: The reception staff were excellent, especially their English, were always ready to offer assistance and provided us with lots of local information and recommendations. The view from our room was magnificent.

Plussat: The hotel was clean modern, amazing staff and just perfect. We would highly recommend this hotel and I would go back if returning to Rio. We overlooked the Copacabana beach from our room, which was beautiful. Our room was stunning and so clean.

Plussat: Great location. Great view of Copocabana from balcony. Good room & breakfast.

Miinukset: Lifts slow. Small bathroom.

Plussat: Great breakfast buffet, accommodated a very early checkin after a long flight. Friendly staff and safe location.

Plussat: Breakfast, staff, and pool area

Miinukset: Non-complimentary wifi

Plussat: Really great location, directly across from the beach.

Miinukset: The rooms although very clean were very small. The staff however were all extremely Accomodating. They provided us with a late checkout (4pm) free of charge.

Plussat: Perfect location. Front desk staff, especially Bruno, were super helpful. Very nice buffet breakfast was included. Highly recommend this hotel. N/a

Plussat: Good location. Nice rooms.

Miinukset: Staff was rude and unfriendly.

Plussat: Everything good. Location excellent

Plussat: really liked the hotel location. close to beach and restaurants. Roof top bar and pool is a place to hang out. Rafael at front desk was my rock for everyday of my stay. Always smiling and always ready to help me out.

Miinukset: It seems that the lobby bar people are more interested in cleaning, organizing and other duties than actually servicing the customers sitting down. I tried several times to have a caiparinia while waiting on friends and just gave up. I could look at them and they just refused to come to me. Very strange. If you are an international hotel with international guests then everyone needs to accept that some don't speak Portugese.

Plussat: Very nice and clean rooms ( el.safe,water,good shampoo, even condoms

Miinukset: Breakfast coffee could be better.

Plussat: Wouldn't know. Never made it.

Miinukset: Had to cancel because of Coronavirus concerns. Hoped to receive some sort of credit, never even received basic, decent correspondence. It never feels good to flush $600+ USD down the toilet, especially for reservations made just days before.

Plussat: In my travels with family and friends in Brazil, this hotel was by far the cleanest with the best facilities and views of the ocean. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the breakfasts were excellent. The location was perfect for sightseeing and walking and the hotel catered well for the children in our group.

Plussat: Hotel location, right on the beach, and exactly in between different areas such as Leblon, ipanema or Santa Teresa, Centro etc...Makes it very convenient to go anywhere in about 15-30 mn taxi ride for about 15-20 R$ Nice modern room with good bed Small bathroom but good shower

Miinukset: Restaurant:- breakfast buffet is good; however at dinner we were served micowaved food and service was extremely slow.

Plussat: I found the hotel in general good.The reception staff excellent.

Miinukset: The porters very unhelpful. On arrival we battled with our bags to get them up the stairs of the hotel.Only once inside was there any effort to assist us.The staff at breakfast seemed to be there under duress. Most unhelpful.

Plussat: Location was great and hotel is not too large and impersonal and is modern light and airy - good plumbing.

Plussat: very convenient, very helpful staff, especially at the front desk

Plussat: All the staff are incredibly friendly and helpful, and really try to make your stay as enjoyable as possible. The food is good, and the location is excellent. The rooms are spotless and very comfortable. Many thanks to the staff we dealt with: Aldo, Dark and Debora - they really made a difference to the enjoyment of our holiday.

Plussat: Very good location on Copacabana> Friendly personnel and comfortable rooms, all very new. Copious breakfast. Very nice view from topterrace

Miinukset: The posted prices of the hotel are high, and no discount the days we were there but this was partly due to a topweek (InternationalConference). Try to choose discountperiods or dates. The pool is very small but everything very clean.

Plussat: It was in a very good location with a great view,also it was new and very clean!

Miinukset: The reseption charge me 30 Reals extra for phon calls and things from mini bar that i dont use at all,but the most important was that they inform me 2 days before my arrive there that they dont accept my credit card(i did my reservation 1 month before).....unbelievable

Plussat: I am a seasoned and well traveled across the globe, the staff are extremely proffessional yet it can become a bit aloof. However my stay was pleasant, the barman at the pool was very attentative & gave the best service it was pleasure tipping him most generously..I will definately stay there again..room size modest/moden but comfortable.

Miinukset: Strange that guests are not allowed in your room, surprisingly it is the 1st hotel that I experienced this.

Plussat: Staff, the attention at the restaurant. The room was clean and new.

Miinukset: Small pool, lack of parking for guests. Not enough towels in the pool area. The behaviour of the guests on the pool area should be watched, it is a family area and I had to leave the area due to improper behaviour of a couple in the pool.

Plussat: Best location , very helpful staff , nice and clean and best roof top bar in the city

Miinukset: They should have tea& coffee facility in the room, every hotel have this facility even 4 star hotel and this is a 5 star

Plussat: Wonderful design with great views of Rio

Miinukset: The "floor lights" light up even without getting out of bed.

Plussat: -Décoration of the hotel -View from the rooftop -Breakfast

Miinukset: -No free water while the tap water is not drinkable - laundry too small compare to our bed size so we could see and touch the mattress

Plussat: Staff were very helpful about everything, with the check in process and everything.

Plussat: Breakfast and rooftop bar was great. All staff were perfect.

Miinukset: I thought i would have a better view. The bed was not comfortable.

Plussat: The hotel would have been super nice back in the day! Good value for money with a nice pool :)

Miinukset: Just a little tired and worn down now.

Plussat: Location

Miinukset: Basic

Plussat: Location was good

Miinukset: Dated hotel. Pool and gym not the best. Breakfast average . Bathroom pooly laid out. No space to move

Plussat: Location. Close to Copacabana Beach.

Miinukset: The price was a huge downer.

Plussat: Freindly and helpful staff; large rooms, nice roof top pool

Miinukset: Terrible internet, dated in need of some renovation, lacked ambiance.

Plussat: The view from the top of the building

Plussat: The view from the pool

Miinukset: Same breakfast served everyday.

Plussat: The attention and staff is great. Good to see new years eve in Copacabana

Miinukset: Price for the night is very expensive even of is NYE. The hotel is quite old and classy, they have a lovely terrace but not party or celebration like the ones closest

Plussat: Nothing, I have stayed in this hotel for years many many times the Quality is down the service is bad and they are trying to cheat you any and each way is possibale, they give me the room that were the size of a box totaly unusual from the previous visit, will never stay there again.

Miinukset: Everything I hated about this hotel.

Plussat: The fact that all was possible anytime, staff ready to help and friendly.

Plussat: The staff were very helpful and friendly.

Miinukset: The road outside is very noisy so if you are a sensitive sleeper, don't choose this hotel. The cleanliness of the bathrooms was not perfect and the bed was squeaky. The breakfast wasn't very nice. All in all this is a pretty dated hotel but fine if you are not spending much time there.

Plussat: Walking distance from Copocabana, so that's attrative. However, not at top location.

Miinukset: Hotel rather simple (tough lcd tv in room), breakfast not the best and simple accomodation.

Plussat: The roof top pool is a lovely feature and the rooms were large and clean.

Miinukset: The receptionists were at times abrupt and rude, although I think this may be due to their limited English skills. Despite the other reviews, I did not find the staff very knowledgeable at all. When I asked about the free internet they said that the wifi was free if you had your own computer as I did not they suggested I use another hotel's internet! Prior to arriving at the hotel, I emailed the hotel three times requesting a pick up from the airport. I am yet to receive a response.

Plussat: The staff was very kind - late checkout was allowed even though the hotel seemed full.

Miinukset: The hotel's furniture and general look is old fashioned. There is no parking for cars - we did not know that and had to pay for parking in a nearby hotel.

Plussat: Location; breakfast.

Plussat: Good location for the money. Good breakfast buffet. Clean.

Miinukset: Room was quite small but adequate for the pricing.

Plussat: Siisti ja asiallinen palvelu. Hyvä sijainti.

Plussat: We were upgraded! The hotel is in a good location and staff were helpful.

Miinukset: It took nearly 15 minutes for the staff to get my car out of the hotel garage - it was obviously overcrowded and they had to bring about 7 cars outside before they could get to mine.

Plussat: breakfast very good with a good selection of fruit , eggs and rolls.

Miinukset: I was very satisfied

Plussat: Well positioned in central location good for beach shops and restaurants excellent friendly and very helpful staff Made up for the slightly tired finishes and limited storage

Miinukset: Could do with more storage for clothes

Plussat: Great location. The pool is quite nice to sit by. Good value for money!

Miinukset: The property needs some care and attention. The rooms were old and dirty. They need re-painting.

Plussat: Comfortable, big bed, friendly staff

Miinukset: Mould in our bedroom and bathroom, safe didn't work, lifts take quite a long time to arrive

Plussat: There’s not so much I liked about property...

Miinukset: I didn’t like that I have prepaid hotel, and I had to wait several hours until stuff was checking my payment and I had to double pay amount... beds were not comfortable, old, same I can say about bathroom... Breakfast was so bad that it give me and my friend diarrhea for several days and we needed to seek the doctors help... if I were the guest I’d double check the reviews and probably would book another hote...

Plussat: Good location.

Miinukset: Wi-fi could be better

Plussat: Inexpensive Quiet Close walk to the beach Safe neighborhood Free breakfast Helpful staff Newly renovated lobby Nice rooftop view

Miinukset: The key to unlock the door has a huge keychain Paid extra to use the room safe Only a few of the staff speak English The elevators are slow Not allowed to have visitors Power to the room shuts off when you leave so you can't charge your phone while your out Room windows don't lock Found a cockroach in the room

Plussat: Staff were excellent, very friendly and helpful. The location was superb, even more so for the price we paid. The prices in the bar and restaurant were very good for a hotel. Normally you will not hotel prices are far more expensive than surrounding areas, but this wasn't the case here.

Miinukset: Although there is a swimming pool on the top floor, there were only two sun beds for the entire hotel. I felt there should have been more, although there were a few tables with chairs, but obviously if you want to sunbathe, you want a sun bed. The wifi was frustrating. Free, but so very frustrating. I feel a password safe wifi system may be better, but who knows. We often had better wifi in local bars and restaurants than we did in the hotel.

Plussat: Lovely staff, good breakfast, very good location, close to copacabana beach, restaurants and stores, changing towels and toiletries daily, hair dryer in the room, pool and small gym open until 22

Plussat: Close to the beach and good bus connections

Plussat: The people were extremely friendly from the minute the taxi let us out. Check-in was efficient and rooms were very nice. Very good price for this hotel. It is very good business hotel - not for family vacation. The seafood soup was the best I every had and the service was great at the restaurant.

Miinukset: There was construction noise from across the street but that is not the fault of the hotel. This hotel is great for business but not for a family vaation as it is too far from the beach.

Plussat: Location was excellent

Miinukset: Rooms at the street side are very very noisy. We had to change the room.

Plussat: The hotel is well placed for Copacabana beach and good public transport to other parts of Rio. Seemed good value for money in a relatively safe location, both day and night. Breakfast was good and staff were lovely.

Plussat: Location of the hotel is great just back from the beach and the cococabana palace. I however do think Ipanema is a better area and would advise staying there. The breakfast was more than adequate and the fresh orange juice was amazing in the morning. The hotel staff are welcoming and speak good english. I would never go to a hotel like this as a couple unless a young couple looking for cheapest option. This is an adequate hotel for traveling with friends and having single beds in the room.

Miinukset: Its not a 4* as said more like a decent 2 or 3 in the Uk. Its vastly over-priced but then so is every single hotel in Cococabana for what they are. I selected this hotel as looked good location and value for money comparable to other hotels. Its sufficient but just be prepared that its a basic hotel somewhere to simply sleep after being out. One thing I didnt like was paying for the safe.

Plussat: comfortable, clean and close to the beach

Plussat: Aamiainen Ok. Hyvä sijainti metron lähellä. Ystävällinen henkilökunta

Miinukset: Uima-allasalue olisi voinut olla isompi. Vähän kuluneisuutta huoneessa. Jääkaapin pakastelokero umpijäässä

Miinukset: I could hear chairs moving on both sides of my room on my floor level as well as above and below me starting at 6:30 AM!! the noise didn't stop with that! the telephones in the hallway rang at 7AM and I could hear the staff using their walkie-talkies around that time. No respect for people who wish to sleep in!!

Plussat: The location worked well for us. We felt safe a few blocks off the main beach

Miinukset: The Hotel Reception overcharged my credit card by a substantial amount. When I asked and showed them the price on my "Kayak Trips" on my phone they still claimed I was being charged the correct rate. When I accessed my account at their business center, they finally conceded, cancelled the wrong amount, and charged correctly. It was an hour wasted with a man treating me as if I were stupid. The female clerk was helpful. The problem was corrected. Everything else was very good, but the initial dealing with the front desk staff was extremely poor.

Plussat: Very good value for your money. The location is close to my apartment which I was reforming. I booked the room during the pandemic of covid-19 the price was very cheap. The room was super clean. I cannot expect anymore for the price I paid.

Miinukset: Wifi speed was not reliable.

Miinukset: Terrible service, no complementary wifi, no way to make calls from the hotel, the staff aren't interested in solving problems
