Rio de Janeiro hotels in Laranjeiras

Pros: It was a simple fresh breakfast with good Music!

Cons: Not strong shower

Pros: The property is beautiful. The location is convenient, and safe. The hosts are wonderful, Luiz gave us a lot of tips about Rio.

Cons: We liked everything!

Pros: Hotel is clean and the room was big, clean and it has everything We needed. The staff was amazing and Luiz made sure have everything we need and he always answers our questions with a big smile. He gave us tips and places to go and he even helped us with some bookings just to make sure we are happy.

Pros: The breakfast was delicious & something different was on offer every morning. The location was excellent for all the things we wanted to see. Louise & Leila went out of their way to help us acclimatise to being in Brazil. They went over & above as hosts & really helped us to settle in & showed us the ropes. Without their help it would have been more difficult. They were marvellous.

Cons: Nothing not to like!

Pros: Hospitality, Location, House Warmnes

Pros: Luis was wonderful, we had a late flight on the day we left. He allowed us to use the room til 6pm at no extra charge. We were able to shower, pack and freshen up before we left. This was a huge bonus for our long flight home. He took my family up to a view point in his vehicle and gave us a lot of advice on local attractions. Pool was fantastic as was breakfast. Security also good. Amazing old home, with many (500+) cable tv movies in English. My kid's loved being able to watch a movie after a long day of sightseeing.

Cons: Nothing...it was a little noisy one night, but it was a saturday and there was a celebration at the neighbours. Not a problem.

Pros: Luiz and Leila were really helpful and friendly. We got a lot of information and tips for spending time in Rio.

Pros: Louis is a great host, he goes above and beyond what is expected. He is very very helpful and on hand without being intrusive. He helped to book tickets for us, took us for a drive around the area...essential to get ones bearings. Also gave us a lift to a local restaurant one night after we'd asked for him to call us a taxi. Room was very spacious with a large comfortable bed...although it did feel dated and if i am being truly honest i think using the word "boutique" is not accurate Secure entry system Breakfast was very tasty, they even fried us some eggs to add to the generous cold selection on offer

Cons: Sadly...and sorry Louis but the noise....single glazed windows, which in our room looked out on a cobbled street with a stream of cars passing by. Also when we arrived we had planes passing directly overhead this was 9pm until 11.30pm. Louis said this was due to the wind direction..not the best start for two tired travellers needing to catch up on their sleep...especially when i booked the hotel on the basis of its name "Nature paradise". Thankfully we never heard planes at night after this first night! As were out all day, we cannot comment on the daily flight path but on our last morning we recorded a plane every 15 minutes going over. In conclusion, if you like your sleep & are sensitive to noise this needs consideration. Also Ikea thin curtains, so when the sun comes up (5am in our case) you are also up! No hotel signage outside so we had issues with some drivers, Louis does provide detailed instructions for taxis but they still seemed to struggle! Whilst i love a clean room, & consider myself a neat traveller...every day the cleaner placed all our items in draws, cupboards etc...made us feel a little unwelcome and we nearly left something behind hadn't it been for doing a final room sweep!

Pros: Stunning views, large comfortable room!! Good breakfast!

Cons: Was a bit unclean, ants in the room, shower constantly leaked all over the floor, the water would sometimes go off without warning. Wifi was not great.

Pros: the view and the kindness and efficiency of the staff

Cons: soap was missing in the bathroom upon check-in aircon leeking despite the impressive views, it is too isolated, however this is a personal opinion.

Pros: Facilities and the view from the balcony was amazing.

Pros: The view from the room and balcony was spectacular!

Cons: Bathroom sometimes had leaking waters. Wifi was pretty spotty inside the room

Pros: The view is spectacular

Cons: The rooms could have more amenities such as safety box, iron, hair dryer, clothes storage and others...

Pros: Excellent situation for those who wish to escape the noise and hassle of the beaches - most appreciated warm welcome by the owner - this is not a hotel, but feels like a friend's guest house with all modern comfort

Cons: none

Pros: View from Rio 180 was great. Staffs/owner at this hotel were nice and very helpful. We stayed in Room "Ipanema" that were spacious and stylized. At night, the neighborhood was very quite. If everything in the room is working and well-maintained, it is nearly a 5-star room. For people who have sleeping problems, this is a better place than any hotel in copacabana and ipanema area.

Cons: Cleanliness and maintainance are the main issues that should be considered when booking a room. Our bed sheet was not clean and did have some hair on it. Several things in the room were broken. Not sure if they have daily room service because our room was not cleaned during the two-night stay. This "hotel" indeed needs to be managed better. It has been designed to be luxury but was more like a bed and breakfast inn now. We enjoyed our stay only because we had minimum expectations (view and spacious/stylized room) and because the staffs were super nice to us. If you excepted more, this won't be a good choice for you.

Pros: I have to say that my stay at 180 Degrees Suites and Cuisine was outstanding. Christophe (the owner) and Patricia (general manager) were both outstandingly attentive, kind, professional, and responsive.

Cons: The only thing I didn't like was that I had to leave so soon! I intend to recommend Christophe's lovely set of suites to any and all friends traveling to Rio. Skip Copacabana/Ipanema, this is the place to stay. The only slight caveat I'd mention is the taxi service. By staying here, you need to be aware that it can take 20 - 30 minutes to get a taxi to come pick you up, although it did take 10-15 minutes on one or two occasions as well.

Pros: The room was clean and beautiful with attractive decor and an amazing hot tub inside the room! The pool was right outside the room and secluded and quiet. The views were stunning - panoramic sights of the entire city. The breakfast was delicious - fresh fruit, juices, breads, cheeses and meats. The staff were very friendly, accommodating and attentive. A short walk to the beautiful Santa Teresa and a short taxi trip into the main city. Beautiful!

Cons: Everything was great!

Pros: the vew was very good

Pros: Homely and personal in very designer chic surroundings. Views were stunning. Staff very friendly and nothing was too much trouble.

Cons: We did not have a daily maid service though this was not important for a 2 night stay. Situated away from the centre of Santa Theresa so either a very long walk to get anywhere or a taxi are essential. The panorama more than makes up for this though.

Pros: The staff were very friendly and the hotel gave amazing views of Rio. The rooms are very luxurious and it was very relaxing.

Cons: We only stayed for a night, but if you were to stay for a long period of time you are a taxi distance away from the rest of Rio's tourist activities and cafe's/beaches which could work out costly over a long period.

Pros: Everything was perfect. The staff does not ask you if everything is ok they ask is it perfect and it was. The view is unmatched and rooms are like no other hotel,all individually designed each with a different feel. The food was wonderful and the staff is top notch and did everything to our liking during our stay. The place is absolutly stunning from the outside especially at night.

Pros: I cannot say enough about how wonderfull our stay was at this hotel. It is so amazing! The view is the best and the rooms WOW! We were so well taken care of by Ben. I will tell everyone they must come and visit! Thanks so much for making our visit so great!!!

Cons: It was great can't really find something that we did not like.

Pros: Everything! The room was awesome, the view was amazing, the food was so so good! Best of all, the staff were lovely - the nicest staff in any hotel in any country I've been in. They did everything they could to help me, which is even more impressive as I don't speak Portuguese and they still went out of their way to make sure everything was good.

Cons: No - everything was perfect, I wish every hotel was like this!
