Very Good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
This property urgently needs a renovation in the bedrooms and bathrooms. Everything is very old and have mold in the room and bathroom. The towels are extremely old, like the sheets that barely cover the mattresses, not to mention that if you don't know Rio de Janeiro, this property is very far from the city's tourist attractions, it’s located on the part of the mountains and when it rains it is extremely dangerous. My husband and I found us self in very dangerous position.
I talked to the hotel manager and he told me he couldn't help with the refund for the other days.
Café da manha ótimo, com bastante opção. Quarto confortável, ambiente agradável, equipe cordial. O hotel tem opção de almoço e jantar.

Hotel antigo, precisando de uma boa reforma, recreação para as crianças muito ruim, goteiras espalhadas pelo hotel, alguns funcionários excelente, outros com total desinteresse pelos hóspedes
Minha estadia que durou apenas dois dias foi excelente. Queria ter ficado mais tempo e aproveitado mais, infelizmente não levei roupa de banho, piscina e area de lazer estavam impecáveis e o que falar do cafe da manha/cafe da tarde e dos funcionarios. Nota 1000

Equipe super atenciosa, o lugar é lindo, muito verde. Piscina agradável, música nos ambientes agradabilíssima. Café da manhã muito bom, variado. O quarto era bem grande, com uma varandinha legal com vista. Contudo, o corredor de acesso aos quartos precisaria de reparos. Muita umidade e mal cuidado. Pelo valor pago, o custo benefício é incrível. Voltaria, com toda certeza.

Amei o hotel e ja é a 4a vez que me hospedo la, os atendentes sao super atenciosos, mi trocaram de quarto para ter mais conforto sem nenhum custo adiciona, eu ameil
Fiquei no anexo de 2 qts. O quarto e as roupas de cama e banho estavam cheirosos quando chegamos, o quarto só é limpo e as toalhas trocadas por solicitação. O café da manhã é bem variado.
O ponto negativo é que só possui ar condicionado em um quarto, para refrescar o segundo, tem que deixar a porta aberta, não tem nem ventilador de teto.
As refeições podem ser feitas no bar da piscina. Nada a reclamar, funcionários bem educados.

Lugar é bem bonito, como se fosse uma chácara com um casarão antigo. Café da manhã é bem gostoso, atendimento é ótimo. Nosso quarto era enorme. Tem um vibe super legal a noite no barzinho e na piscina
Tudo ótimo.
Funcionários capacitados em especial ao garçom Leonardo, muito solicito e atencioso em tudo.

preços bem acessíveis.
Volto em breve
