Lovely colonial boutique in Cabo Frío!

I loved the low key colonial vibe, just next to a quite part of the shore, close to small fishing boats. Amazing drinks, great pool and a very nice breakfast. Also loads of great restaurants and beaches close by. Would definitely recommend!

The hotel is a small beautiful boutique hotel that is beautifully decorated with a great location overlooking the Itajuru canal. We were fortunate to get an upgrade to a lovely suite. The staff are very welcoming and helpful. The breakfast was nice and the restaurant food was amazing so we ate there all 3 days of our stay. There are many restaurants close by. The beach is about a 10 minute walk.

Excellent hotel within walking distance of restaurants bars shops. The only thing I wasn't pleased with, was that the key ring had a little broomlike attachment that they required you to keep on the key. If you didn't want to carry it, you had to leave the key at the front desk.

We loved our stay at Hotel Solar do Arco and Cabo Frio as a wider area. We really enjoyed the facilities - lounging by the pool and reading in the main terrace was a particular highlight for me. We had a great breakfast each morning, and the staff were incredibly friendly and approachable. We would love to come back here again and would recommend the hotel to our friends!

You simply cannot find a more attractive little boutique hotel (pousada) than Solar do Arco. Super stylish, quaint, Portuguese-inspired architecture. Wonderful staff, very good breakfast and parking just next door. Dining options abound. The room was well appointed and the A/C was quiet and appeared to be brand new. I'm going back!
