– I loved the staff, so friendly and amazing. They really did everything for making us happy. Many thanks to receptionist and the lovely chef! – The view from the room and especially the restaurant is just outstanding, both Rio icons at one place. It was so beautiful, we didnt move out of the hotel for the most time. – Breakfast, lunch/dinner is just UNBELIEVABLE.

– The room is cute, but there is a huge problem with showers and toilets: 1. it is open – not for a new couples lol, avoid having awkward situations loool. 2. no ventilation for water vapour, the water is being stuck in the room causing fungus appearing all over the room.

The staff were warm, friendly, and helpful. The food was delicious. The view from the room was outrageously beautiful. We had a wonderful experience!

We were very satisfied with everything!

Lovely views of the city and mountains

The roads to the location is not great. The small narrow stairs to the rooms is not pleasant especially when carrying bags

Tuck away on the top of the hills, the view is undeniably amazing. Too top it off, the staff were always willing to help.

Nice quiet neighborhood. Attentive staff. Great breakfast.

Needs a little TLC. Lots of repairs and maintenance in progress. Room was fairly small.

Good breakfast, staff quick to attend when needed

I advised that it was our wedding night. They had the opportunity to do something special but instead, absolutely nothing was done. I felt this was lazy and lacked customer care.

Stayed here 4 times never disappointed as view is to die for

the incredible view, a fantastic room

nothing

great view, but a little tired hotel. hotel breakfast is a amazing

The is probably one of the nicest places to stay in Rio, simply because the view is so breathtaking. The rooms are spectacular and the staff is incredibly nice. I literally do not have a single bad things to say.

We came for the view and it didn't disappoint! We had incredible views of the city right from the comfort of our bed e.g Sugarloaf and Christ the Redeemer from the window. The view from the restaurant was breathtaking! The staff was wonderful, very accommodating and so attentive; they decorated the room a bit for my birthday, which was very special.

The pictures of the room looked different from the photos online. But most disappointing was that it had a musty smell. The room in general was not well ventilated and there was mould on the walls and in the shower. Also, the bathtub that we paid extra for, was old and rusting around the metal - not particularly appealing. When we did attempt to try it one evening there was no hot water available. :( This being said, we did tell the staff about the water issue in the morning and they fixed it almost immediately, but we didn't use the bathtub. In general, the staff were very apologetic and willing to help with everything. Again, the views are still amazing and I can imagine that had it not been for the ventilation issues, our stay would have been great.

The view from my room over Rio was stunning, Sugarloaf Mountain to the left, Christ the Redeemer to the right with the city view in-between. Get up early and enjoy the sunrise on the terrace! Breakfast was good, a selection of pastries, bread and fruit to your table, additionally you can order cooked eggs. Staff were all very friendly, extremely helpful and welcoming.

The hotel is on a flight path, however that changes during the day and the 1st flight was after 8am so wasn't a massive issue.

Great view. Very solicit staff. Room was very clean

Food in the restaurant took around 1 hour to be ready. The bed was not very comfortable, you could feel the springs in the back while laying down and it was not comfortable (hurt a bit).

The view is the most stunning part of this establishment. The view the view the view. And that's what you mainly pay for, I feel. And the staff are really really nice. The breakfast is awesome too.

The room floor was very dirty. In five minutes of walking around the room, the soles of my feet were black with dirt, so that was a pity. The room also kind of had sewage smell, which wasn't great. This is a five star hotel, but it's more because it's a five-star view. Also, the kitchen was out of function the day we arrived, so we ordered lunch to be delivered, which made us shorter on time to get ready for a wedding we were there to attend. The staff was very kind and accommodating though.

The view is amazing, especially from the restaurant. Nice welcome drink. The staff were helpful and friendly.

I wish I read ALL the reviews before booking... In my honest opinion, this is not a hotel, it is a guest house that needs a lot of maintenance. It has potential to be a great place to stay, but for the price we paid, we were very disappointed (btw this is the most expensive I have ever paid for a suite with a spa bath - a treat for my birthday). I was not sure which suite I booked (as the pictures showed all the rooms with spa baths), so make sure you send them a message to confirm what room you want beforehand. We got the Copacabana suite next to the pool, the view was partially blocked by trees and was obviously less private with the curtains open. The spa bath is old and the jets could have more pressure. The shower and toilet are behind glass sliding doors... so when you are on the loo and your partner is in bed, they can see you through the mirror on the opposite wall, not so romantic. The mattress is old and needs replacing. The wifi could also be better, had connection issues upon arrival.

- the view from the balcony in queen’s suit and from the dining terrace - the design of the place - plates they use for serving breakfast

- the location is not very well connected to the main part of the city, you will have to use uber to go everywhere - there is maintenance needed in the washroom in the room i stayed (the hangers are coming off the wall and hot water just switches off on its own sometimes) - there was construction work going on when i stayed there and the view and sounds were troublesome

The views are amazing and the staff is nice.

The location is not one of the safest and many Uber drivers refuse to take you there. Common areas of the hotel are not very well taken care of and not very clean. Also, in case of emergency, don’t rely on the arrogant management to help you in any way.

The breakfast was great, the staff were really friendly and helpful, and the views over Rio are phenomenal.

The design of the shower meant that the bedroom floor got very wet. The location is great for views but quite a long way from Santa Teresa's cafes, restaurants etc.
