Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers spacious and modern rooms with great amenities, but faced issues with the key card system. The staff, although friendly, had some language barriers affecting service quality. The location is serene and away from the trendy areas, yet across the street from the beach. The dining experience was outstanding, offering a variety of fresh options. The facilities are well-kept, with a vintage charm in the Annexe building.
Wow! My room was huge with high ceilings, a large bathroom, and amazing views of Copacabana beach and the ocean. The bed was extremely large and comfy, and the bathroom had a luxurious marble-lined double sink, walk-in shower, and soaking tub. However, the room showed signs of age.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The location was perfect, right in front of Copacabana beach with helpful staff, but we faced an issue with the room key card that caused some inconvenience until we were compensated for it. The rooms were always well maintained, offering a lovely ocean view, with attentive service that included early check-in and late check-out. The dining experience, although tasty, had its ups and downs, and the facilities were satisfactory overall.
The hotel offers unforgettable breakfast with comfortable beds and a great location by Copacabana beach. The service is top-notch with very friendly staff. The dining experience is wonderful, especially at the Pergula restaurant. The hotel boasts fabulous facilities including a huge pool and lovely details around the premises.
Staying in a room with a direct view of Copacabana beach was beautiful. The service was super friendly and efficient. The location is very nice, right across the street from the beach. Dining in the Pergula restaurant was amazing, especially the green juice. Overall, a great experience with a couple of drawbacks.
Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, with a stunning view of Copacabana beach, were elegant, comfortable, and immaculately clean. However, a disappointing encounter with a security guard tainted our arrival, though the rest of the service throughout our stay was friendly and helpful. The location provides a safe environment to explore, but the surrounding high buildings limit some sunshine. The dining at Pergula was fantastic, but with western dishes available only before 1pm.
