Краткий обзор: A stunning architectural shell that struggles to deliver the 5-star service and maintenance its history deserves.

Подтверждено @tripswithqt: I stayed in the Deluxe Ocean View room and honestly, I have zero complaints. The security made me feel so safe, and waking up to that view of the ocean and mountains every day was unreal. From the cleanliness to the kindness of the staff, I give it an 11 out of 10.

Гости, которые останавливались здесь, говорят

The hype

Guests are dazzled by the building's curves and the ocean views but consistently let down by 'tired' maintenance and overwhelmed staff.

Reality check

The pool is often crowded and sometimes dirty, and you might find mold in the bathroom grout despite the 'luxury' label.

  • You are an architecture nerd (Niemeyer building + Burle Marx gardens)
  • You want a resort-style pool vibe rather than a city hotel
  • You plan to hang glide (landing spot is right nearby)

Чистота и уход

6.5
  • Housekeeping: Inconsistent. Many reports of missed spots, dust, and rooms not being serviced until late afternoon.
  • Bathroom hygiene: Frequent complaints about black mold in shower grout and worn-out sealant.
  • Maintenance: Showing its age. Peeling paint, dripping AC units, and broken towel racks are common.
  • Linens & towels: Towels are often described as 'thin', 'grey', or 'stained'. Linens are standard hotel grade.
  • Odors & scents: Lobby smells fresh, but some rooms have a lingering musty/mildew smell due to humidity.

FAQ и советы

Всё, что вы действительно хотели бы знать перед бронированием.

Is the area safe?

São Conrado is an upscale neighborhood, but it sits next to Rocinha. The immediate hotel area is safe and patrolled, but avoid walking towards the favela or unlit areas at night. Take Ubers.

Is breakfast included?

Yes, a buffet breakfast is usually included, but expect crowds, noise, and a fight for tables during peak hours (8-10 AM).

Can I walk to Copacabana?

No. It is a 15-20 minute drive through a tunnel. You are isolated here.

Is the pool heated?

Technically yes, but reviews are mixed—some find it pleasant, others say it's cold, especially on cloudy days.

Are there hidden fees?

A 10% service charge is standard on food/drink. No explicit 'resort fee' is usually charged at booking, but double-check your specific rate terms.

Do they speak English?

Front desk staff usually do, but housekeeping and pool staff often speak only Portuguese. Google Translate is your friend.

Советы инсайдеров

  • ✨

    The 'Masi' restaurant on the 30th floor is open to non-guests and offers a much calmer breakfast/dinner experience than the main buffet.

  • ✨

    Walk to the 'Pepino Beach' end of the strip to watch hang gliders land—it's a free show.

  • ✨

    Use the 'Fashion Mall' nearby (10 min walk) for a safe, air-conditioned food court if the hotel food disappoints.

5 вещей, которые нужно знать перед поездкой

  • 💡The elevators can be agonizingly slow during breakfast and check-out times.

  • 💡The 'Mountain View' is a euphemism for 'Favela View'—fascinating for some, confronting for others.

  • 💡The Burle Marx gardens are beautiful but often under-maintained compared to the photos.

  • 💡You might find long hairs on the floor or dust bunnies under the bed; housekeeping is hit-or-miss.

  • 💡The acoustic isolation in the lobby is terrible; it echoes like a train station.
