It was a good hotel for a quick overnight. Bed was not the greatest but clean enough and served the purpose. I would stay here again

Overnight start before boarding a cruise ship. Breakfast was very good.

8/10 Very good

Good for business travel

The Guanabara is a very good hotel in Rio. It is in the Center and the business district. Clean and nice facilities. The only negative is it is a long way from the tourist district, if you are interested in taking advantage of any of the tour companies or famous beaches.
2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Hotel is just okay, we needed a place closer to the airport for one night and so this place worked for that. Price was reasonable and rooms are spartan, but you get what you pay for, nothing to complain about. I would not stay here more than one night as there is nothing to do in Centro and you would be constantly going back and forth to other parts of the city.

Convenient location, not safe outside hotel. Reasonable price and breakfast buffet

I had a wonderful day there, but I was a little concerned about walking around at night. So I just stayed in, the hotel restaurant was very good.

High recommend this hotel. It’s in the city. People working there are so polite. The pool is amazing. The view is amazing ❤️
TALITA, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

The food and service is excellent. The location is convenient because it is close to the downtown but it is unsafe at night time. The pool area is nothing like the pictures, the water is cold and it looks abandoned.

Front desk sucks! They don’t speak English and is hard to get proper help with anything, only people at the restaurant were helpful.
ROBERTO, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Most liked staff, very friendly very helpful but yet very professional. Special mention to Restaurant staff and also front desk. For my next stay, might prefer a room higher up where noise may affect less. Or if there is some way of Sealing wndows.
Ramon, 7-night trip

6/10 Good

Dated and not sure about the 4*

Hotel was clean but very dated. It was like stepping back to the 80s. Although there is a tram stop nearby, the area is not very safe at night time. Reception staff weren't very welcoming. Not sure what makes this a 4* hotel.
Judith, 2-night trip

Furnishing is outdated and hotel not in a good neighborhood; a few homeless people lying around

Hotel bom mas alguns pontos a serem melhorados!

Opinião sincera!: Hotel muito bem estruturado, quarto luxo muito bom, espaçoso e extremamente confortável. Hidromassagem boa, não funcionou no 1º dia, mas solicitei um funcionário para averiguar e fui atendida no 2º dia. Localização: Quem não se importa em ir para a zona sul (Copacabana, Ipanema etc) ok. Agora no meu caso achei longe, cerca de 20 minutos do hotel.. peguei Uber o tempo todo, e os valores oscilam muito! O hotel fica próximo ao museu do amanhã e percebi que ao redor tem mais passeios culturais mesmo. Também há o aeroporto Santos Dumont por perto, inclusive vc consegue ver os aviões decolando..Atenção aos redores, há muitos moradores de rua e as ruas são um pouco sinistras e desertas. PONTO NEGATIVO: Um conselho: não vá em feriado. Fui fazer check in e pasmem: quase 1:30h NA FILA! Check in extremamente LENTO, fila imensa, o que me gerou chateação, nunca me ocorreu isso! Recepcionistas mau humorados! Os garçons, manobristas e funcionários da limpeza parabéns. Sempre com sorriso no rosto e muito educados/ solícitos. Café da manhã: Muito bom e variado! Pães, bolos, sucos, frutas e cereais variados, e adorei a panqueca com chocolate! Senti falta de um capuccino mas no geral ok. Recomendo o hotel fora de feriado, e pra quem precisa ficar ali nas proximidades do centro realmente.. apesar de muito bom, eu não voltaria devido a localização que para mim ficou longe e também ao trauma do check in.
