Casajomo Art, Food & Music B&B

Absolutely loved it! The hotel is perfectly located in Santa Teresa, just a short walk from everything we wanted to explore. Dacia was incredibly welcoming and made us feel at home right away. The room was stunning—filled with vibrant, colorful paintings that gave the space such a unique artistic vibe. Breakfast was fresh and delicious, with homemade jams, bread, and juice that tasted amazing. The rooftop view was breathtaking—perfect for sunset drinks or just relaxing with a book. The small pool was a lovely surprise, ideal for cooling off after a day of sightseeing. We especially enjoyed strolling through the neighborhood and grabbing dinner at a cozy little restaurant nearby. Walking into downtown Rio was easy and safe. This place has a special charm—warm, authentic, and full of character. I’d return in a heartbeat. Highly recommend!

Fairmont Rio de Janeiro Copacabana

The hotel is about a 40-minute drive from the airport, perfectly situated between Ipanema and Copacabana beaches. Just step outside, cross the street, and you're right on the sand—fine, soft sand that feels like magic beach powder under your feet. Every staff member we met was incredibly polite and genuinely warm, always greeting guests with a smile. The pool area is stunning, and the view from outside—where mountains meet the ocean—is absolutely breathtaking, especially at sunset. We spent two full days just relaxing by the pool and on the beach, doing nothing but soaking in the vibe. We checked in early and were initially assigned a sea-view room at the end of the building, but my husband wanted something better, so we switched rooms twice before landing on a great one. It was worth the effort. The only downside? The price is steep—nearly $400 per night—but honestly, given the location, service, and overall experience, it’s not unreasonable. It’s just hard on the wallet when you’re budget-conscious!

Sheraton Grand Rio Hotel & Resort

Staying at this resort felt like a true getaway. The private beach access is a game-changer—just step outside and you're right on the sand with stunning ocean views. It's well-located, just a short ride from downtown Rio, making it easy to explore the city while still enjoying a peaceful retreat. The amenities are impressive: multiple pools (indoor and outdoor), tennis courts, and a dedicated kids’ play area that kept my children entertained all day. Despite being a luxury hotel, the price feels very reasonable—excellent value for money. The only minor downside? The sound of waves can be a bit loud if you're sensitive to noise, so I’d recommend requesting a room farther from the beach side or on a higher floor. Overall, an outstanding experience—comfortable, well-maintained, and perfect for families or couples looking for relaxation with great convenience.

JW Marriott Rio de Janeiro

The hotel is absolutely fantastic! While the rooms are a bit dated, they’re clean, well-maintained, and surprisingly comfortable. What really stood out was the daily complimentary treats—two chocolates and 2 to 4 bottles of water per day. Small touches, but they made a big difference. The real highlight? The stunning ocean view. I highly recommend booking a sea-view room—just step outside and cross the street to reach the beach. You’ll be greeted by endless blue skies, gentle waves, and that iconic Rio coastline right at your doorstep. It’s incredibly convenient for exploring the city too, with easy access to public transit. If you're looking for a relaxing yet central stay in Rio de Janeiro, this is definitely the place to be. A perfect blend of comfort, location, and value—10/10 without a doubt!
