Absolutely fantastic stay
My stay at Gran Melia was absolutely wonderful and it's probably one of the best hotels I've stayed at. Starting from a fantastic room facilities, amazing views on the beach and the city, divine breakfast and outstanding service. When I lost my watch the staff was incredibly helpful and supportive for which I'm incredibly grateful. I would definitely recommend this hotel whether for a business stay or pleasure and hope will be back there one day myself.

Nice but not excellent
The hotel is situated near a favela (Rocinha) and that’s the reason that the beach infrount is dangerous. The hotel doesn’t bring security in the beach and no proper beach service is possible. The room is well equipped and has a nice view, but the last night we don’t recive cleaning service. The breakfast was ok, but they seem to have an issue with the ONlY coffe machine which didn’t let me have steam milk !! We had to drink cold coffe every single mornin we stayed. I asked for a compensation is descount for this several problems and the manager just justified the facts and was nos able to work out anything for me ! I Payed like a 5 star Hotel and in return I has only a 3 with just a looking of a 5 !! Not really thinking on coming back unless they improve seriously the detail which gives a hotel a real 5 stars !!

Not quiet ready for prime time
First impression was good, beautiful lobby, but then hit with an overwhelming odor, maybe a disinfectant, it was always present in the main lobby, we braced for it every time we returned to the hotel. The Staff was the best part, very accommodating, friendly and helpful. Rooms were nice, bedding first class, some small details yet to be addressed do to the newness of the remodel, outlet covers not attached, water pressure in sink was so strong I literally sprayed the entire vanity, mirror and my self the first time I turned it on, a/c very loud, bright green light glowed from TV at night, sauna and steam not working. The hotel is located in a residential neighborhood, very quiet with a great beach, which was nice, but no shopping or restaurants, so you need to take a cab everywhere, at between 25 and 50 reais each way to Copacabana and Ipanema and 150 to the Airport, It added up.
