Búzios hotels near Praça Santos Dumont

Pros: The staff was very friendly. The location next to the beach was relaxing. The layout of the hotel was designed well they had pools everywhere.

Cons: Some of the curtains in the room had mildew on them. The room we had was surrounded by kids that were loud and they walls seemed thin.

Pros: Location was great, ferradura beach is steps away. R das Pedras is within walking distance as well. Pools are amazing, súper-clean it makes you not want to leave the hotel. Play room and activities for kids over 5. Staff was very friendly. Very good breakfast. The food and drink menu at the pool was great in quality and value.

Cons: No elevators, my parents are over 65 and we had to change rooms. I paid extra for an upgrade to stay closer to the ground because of 2 small children. Windows are low and I did not feel comfortable. Dinner at the hotel is not a good value for the money.

Pros: Pool area menu has improved a lot compared to previous years. Much more food options as well as wines now. It also became faster to order and being served. A good improvement!

Cons: Water temperature control in the shower may vary by its own, can be unpleasant.

Pros: Swimming pools for kids!

Cons: Water in swimming pools has to be cleaned more often, too much hair, insects, plants.

Pros: Nice place

Cons: The pool was dirty

Pros: I liked everything about this hotel. The room is large, the bed is comfortable. The swimming pool is amazing.

Cons: I liked everything.

Pros: Hands down the best feature of this hotel is the location. It is in the heart of the city center where one wants to be at night. Overall, the staff were friendly, however, there were a couple who delivered standout service such as the woman at the front desk during the morning period who organized a tour and buggy rental. Also, the pool bartender in the evening was very friendly and had great advice to share about the area. The bed was super comfortable and the room spacious. The breakfast was varied and the quality was very good.

Cons: The pool needs a bit of reforming. Many tiles missing and I am hoping that is what I was stepping on when I was in it (yikes!). Our room was infested (literally!) with both large and small ants on the first night. We were told that some ants were normal - however, this was excessive. The staff were attentive in dispatching someone to our room to spray. Each day after this we saw a few but nothing like the first night. I would expect that everyday the rooms should be sprayed to help minimize this problem.

Pros: Location location location... 100 metes away from down town where all the good stuff is.. food and drinks Excelwnte inicasion a metroa del centro y playa!

Cons: It was a great stay...

Pros: Centrally located, this was a good place to walk from and explore the town (especially for the night life) and nearby beaches. Our room was spacious and quiet and we enjoyed relaxing at the pool area. The staff were friendly and helpful.

Pros: Nice pool area with loungers and beds, bar serving drink, comfortable beds, nice decor, nice breakfast buffet, great location near town and beach and macdonalds! Welcome drink.

Cons: Bugs in pool and no laundry service.

Pros: Everything was awesome, breakfast food was quality, I loved it, location is perfect as you are really close to everything and Rua das pedras as well.

Cons: There was not a lot of food available in the swimming pool. During my two days I wanted to eat lula and another dish (which I don't remember the name of it) and we couldn't get it because they didn't have it. Food was awesome though.

Pros: Quiet relaxing location

Cons: Nothing

Pros: The bad

Cons: Not good food, very strange location, not good service

Pros: The property was very clean and the staff amazing. Very helpful and attentive

Cons: The apartment at the ground floor lacks privacy due to walkway just in front of the terrace

Pros: Buzios is amazing. The walk to and from the centre and even some beaches is 10 - 15 mins. Staff very friendly. Rooms large and comfortable. Hammock on balcony. Views .... but request a high up room for best views ... ours was on ground floor so no view.

Cons: We stayed at both Portobay Rio de Janeiro and at Portobay Buzios. We were spoilt by the breakfasts in Rio, so only negative comment would be breakfast didn't meet same level as Rio (we had fizz and hot and cold choices including porridge etc). However Portobay Buzios is a much smaller more laid back relaxing hotel so understandably lower key breakfast.

Pros: The setting is perfect, but some far from calle das pedras. Rooms are clean, spatious, and well organized. Reception, bar, breakfast are amazing!

Cons: Reception should speak perfect english and they may offer bikes/buggies

Pros: Staff

Cons: Air conditioner

Pros: Very comfortable bed. Super size room. Fantastic breakfast with an excellent choice of fruits and cakes. Delicious strong coffee.

Pros: Great location and amazing balcony with stunning views. Philip was extremely helpful and seemed genuinely disappointed when we informed him of things that needed attention.

Cons: Upon arrival, there were 2 pairs of ‘complimentary’ branded flip flops when 4 guests where staying and one of the pairs had been previously used

Pros: The place is amazing! The staff ready to help all the time! Couldn't have chosen a better place. I'll definitely choose Porto Bay again!

Cons: Everything was perfect, except for the fact that we did not have wifi connection in the room, just in the common areas.

Pros: bed is wide enough for two people can sleep together. it was convenient to reach to the beach easily. the backdoor was next to the beach and many restaurants. warm water is comfortable.

Cons: air conditioner is too old with noise breakfast is not excellent. there is few things to eat. if they have special place to make omelet I can feel more comfortable. the depth of the pool is just 130 cm for all area. I felt somewhat shallow. Internet is not free. price level is higher than expectation for all season.

Pros: The staff were very helpful, particularly with the transfer to and from Buzios/Rio

Cons: No drawers and very little cupboard space for clothes. Fine for a day or two but not good for a longer period. This is quite normal for Brazilian hotels

Pros: Great location and nice pool.

Cons: The rooms need an upgrade

Pros: breakfast is great

Cons: internet in the room is not free. this is 2019 and totally wrong

Cons: Nothing

Cons: Chief-receptionist (woman) was terribly unpleasant and gross. She tried to to falsify my signature.

Pros: Very nice view and nice rooms

Cons: The bathroom has no door especially on the shower side - it was awkward as I was visiting with friends

Pros: Honestly, nothing. Our worst experience in an hotel ever. Before you proceed to book in this hotel, PLEASE READ THIS REVIEW.

Cons: We booked a Standard Room for 7 nights for vacation and had an awful experience. 1) Rooms are not as they are shown in this pictures and the stuff (specially the owners) won't take care of you as a guest, once you paid, you're done. We got a very deteriored room with view to a roof (not what is published here). So we kindly requested the owners (who serve the hotel, Bruno who replies to reviewers is one of them) to change our room; after 2 attemps they told me they could change the room on day 3 (after the weekend). As they didn't give us another option, and as we already paid, we had to accept. On day 3, we got another room (with parcial view to the garden) but again, not what is promoted in pictures. 2) They left us in the room towels with blood stains (I uploaded the pictures), the mini bar was all rusty, there were no shampoo in any of the days we stayed, not even glasses for the water, rusty safe box, the air conditioner was extremely noisy, the TV is from 90s, broken bathroom faucets, chairs and table also very rusty, not to mention all the perforated bed linen which they didn't change in 7 days. In addition, we were without internet in the room for 2 nights (and reported it) 3) During breakfast, my girfriend left 1/5 of his dish with eggs. One of the owners (a lady) come to us asking "why we were not going to eat it and saying we don't want to do this" (not eating everything). My girlfriend was full and eggs were not good, so we were like "ugh? Ok sorry for that, but we are full, not going to eat them". She was angry so took our dish and trash it while complaining with his personnel. Finally, last day, we ordered a pizza (because it was raining) and we sit to eat in a table (same they serve breakfast). The laidy approached us again and tell us to leave as we were not allowed to eat in ghe hotel (in a pretty bad manner actually).

Pros: The staff was super! The garden is so beautiful!
