HMG Rio Suítes

Very good location and staff really friendly.

There is no lift

Very close to many good quality food options. 3 minute walk to metro (Botafogo access C). Great breakfast. Very clean and well kept establishment.

They have a weird policy of taking credit card details in case you don't turn up, but also demand 50% upfront to 'guarantee' your reservation. This is ok if you are brazilian and have PIX, but they seem to think an international bank SWIFT transfer is just as easy. Let me tell you - IT IS NOT! I reserved this place the day before I arrived and if I could organise a SWIFT transfer without signing a form AT my bank on the other side of the World, my stay would have been over before they would have received the transfer. After messaging for most of the day, they said I could pay on arrival. I don't know why they couldn't just accept a credit card payment for the full amount instead of just a 'guarantee'.

Breakfast very nice

Nothing

The location is amazing. The rooms themselves are ok.

They didn’t have an elevator causing a couple of issues getting to the rooms that were upstairs. Finding the place was somehow cumbersome and hard for Ubers to park outside so you have to walk a lot.
