Top Água Santa Hotel Reviews

Hotel Nacional Rio de Janeiro OFICIAL

6/10 Okay

"My overall experience at this hotel was okay. However, I would consider it more a strong 3-star property rather than a 5-star property. During my stay, I encountered an issue involving housekeeping removing a personal belonging. I was able to provide clear evidence to support my claim. Initially, my concern was not handled impartially, as there appeared to be a tendency to side with the housekeeping staff. However, upon reviewing the evidence, the team made efforts to address the matter and offered appropriate accommodation. I would like to commend the guest relations team and the hotel supervisor, both of whom were courteous and attentive in ensuring that the remainder of my stay was as comfortable and smooth as possible. In general, the hotel was clean and maintained good security standards. However, the breakfast buffet offered limited options and did not stand out as a notable feature of the stay."

Windsor Oceanico

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely loved my stay at Windsor Ocean! The hotel was beautiful, clean, and in the perfect location with stunning ocean views. The staff was incredibly welcoming and attentive, always making sure we had everything we needed. The rooms were comfortable, modern, and very well maintained. Breakfast was delicious with plenty of options, and the overall atmosphere made the experience feel relaxing and luxurious. This hotel truly made our trip to Rio even more memorable. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting!"

Fairmont Rio de Janeiro Copacabana

10/10 Excellent

"We loved our stay at the Fairmont. We had a family suite which was perfect for a family of five. We also had the gold package which included access to the lounge. There was often food and drinks in there that was included in our package. This was a big help having kids and always having somewhere to go for food. The staff was incredibly helpful. The rooms were clean. They had access to the beach already set up, which made it very easy. I would highly recommend staying at the Fairmont if you’re bringing your family to Rio."

Royal Rio Palace Hotel

2/10 Terrible

"Had a room with 2 small beds. One bed had a mattress that probably lost a few springs, by the head area. That bed was very small for an adult. Room is small. Staff was great. Breakfast was excellent. The roling toaster need some fixing. Not hot enough. Very noisy people talking loud and screaming loud till 4am. Clientele has no respect for others Overall 3/10. Not coming back."
