Located in a noisy part of Leblon, this is not a 5-star hotel, but it's still really nice and the staff were always very helpful. The fixtures are modern, and the place is very clean.

Excellent hotel in an outstanding location. We only stayed for one night, but everything exceeded our expectations. The staff was genuinely friendly and welcoming, the bar served excellent cocktails at reasonable prices, and the location couldn’t be better—right by the beach in a very safe area with a visible police presence. It was the perfect base for exploring Rio. I would happily stay here again and highly recommend it.
