Rio de Janeiro hotels near Palacio do Catete

Pros: GOOD: - Free car parking. - Free wi-fi in rooms with average speed. - Teapot, Fridge in rooms. - Good breakfast, lunch, and dinner buffet with lots of food choices, including lacto-free, gluten-free with indication.

Cons: BAD: - No free bottles of water in rooms. - ALL drinks at lunch and dinner buffet are for additional price. - Location is far from touristic attractions.

Cons: They have a poor maintenance. There is a lot of noise inside the room. I’ve requested a superior room, 60% more expensive than the standard one and in the end my bed was 2 beds assembled into one, with different kinds of beds. Half of the bed was soft and te other half was hard! Unbelievable!! There is low water flow in the shower and the water temperature varies constantly.

Pros: The location and the room size was great. The staff were pleasant; not friendly... just pleasant (except for the lady who helped me with check out - she was very warm and friendly). I had a view of the top of Sugarloaf Mountain and the metro station is right around the corner.

Cons: I was not assisted with my luggage at check in. I had a large backpack as I was on a 12 day tour of South America. The doormen saw me checkin and watched me struggling to carry my bag to the elevator (I was very tired). Later that day, I saw the same staff helping other guests with their luggage - all of their luggage had wheels. Breakfast wasn't included and was pretty expensive for what it was.

Pros: Very nice and helpful staff. Nice Location. Amazing view from the rooftop hotel. Very clean accomandation. Lovely breakfast.

Cons: old furniture - very outdated. daily the same breakfast no variety.

Pros: The friendly healthy helpful staff and the excellent breakfast, really great value!

Cons: All good

Pros: Amazing views, perfect location for our early flight the following day, great pool, good breakfast, clean and comfortable room.

Cons: There was a party either at the hotel restaurant on the last floor or next door all night and it was incredibly loud and my husband could not sleep.

Pros: Added value. What else can I ask for? It was a memorable stay.

Cons: Time passed by too quickly.

Pros: Easy in and out

Pros: Location is obviously perfect for those in a short stay with appointments in downtown. The view from the rooftop restaurant is also great.

Cons: Nothing relevant, just the fact that it is not a 4 star hotel.

Pros: Easy access to the airport through the shopping mall. nearby many restaurant options. Great view on the rooftop! Plus the swimming pool on rooftop.

Cons: Staff were not flexible at all - as we arrived at noon and understood that check-in starts at 2pm. We would like to do the pre check-in first in order to save time when we're back in the evening, since we know hotels in Brazil are required to note down so many information from hotel guests. Unfortunately they refused to do any pre check in, and it took us around half an hour to get our room at the end when we arrived back to the hotel in the evening. We booked double room (double bed) but got a twin room. Guest Relation offered us to go back to the reception, can check and change room, but of course you have to stand in the line again. Offer refused as we did not want to wait another half an hour. the blanket sheet fell off easily. The design/use of the blanket sheet was bad/improper. You're basically sleeping with the blanket directly.

Pros: The people in the reception friendly

Cons: My friend''s money have been taken by some body a round 1200 dollar The electricity cut 2 times

Pros: The staff, location, friendly

Pros: Wonderful design with great views of Rio

Cons: The "floor lights" light up even without getting out of bed.

Pros: Everything! The view from my room, the staff, the food, everything was just as, if not more than what I had expected. I could see the Sugar Loaf mountains along the marina right outside of my room! The food was savoury and fresh, had many options to choose from. The eating lounge has a very shick and relaxing ambiance to it that gets you in the right mood and toom service was fast as well. The staff were amazing and always willing to help, I would highly recommend this place to anyone.

Cons: Just wish the rooftop was open 24hrs, when I tried going up in the morning it was closed.

Pros: The staff make it

Pros: The room and the view of Sugar Loaf were great. We also really enjoyed the rooftop bar.

Pros: The staff were excellent and so helpful - they were all charming. The view from the rooftop bar of Sugar Loaf mountain is incredible

Cons: The hotel was a bit dark. The restaurant was at the back and could have been brighter. The facilities in the standard rooms were limited and didn't include tea/coffee making facilities which was disappointing. The public areas were small. A wider selection of food on the rooftop bar would be an improvement. Despite all this we had a really good stay because the staff made such a difference, friendly, helpful and fun.

Pros: very stilish interior, close to Botafogo beach, very clean, very modern

Cons: roof bar unfortunately not open all day around

Pros: Our two day stay was really awesome. The hotel is a little quirky but cool. The rooms were large and comfortable. Breakfast was great. Not a huge variety for vegetarians but still good.

Cons: I didn’t like that our rooms were not made up for our entire stay. Bathrooms were not cleaned and towels not changed.

Pros: Good quality of the room. Silence. The bar on the roof. Good breakfast. Friendly personal. Location.

Cons: The view from the room not exactly what they offered on the site. The lates checkout not accepted.

Pros: Great hotel with comfy beds and nice staff.

Cons: I would not stay here for the first couple of days in Rio due to the location being a little far from restaurants and the main tourist attractions. You can get uber or taxi but you spend an extra 30mins plus your regular journey time sitting in traffic depending on the time of the day.

Pros: awesome breakfast, very friendly people, good location with an awesome view and very good caipirinha

Pros: Location

Cons: Perfect

Pros: Location..

Cons: Swimmingpool..

Pros: Nothing really. The room was dirty and the staff not very polite.

Cons: Dirty Bathroom and the sheets with blood. 0 Cleanness

Pros: The room we stayed in was gigantic and very beautiful, breakfast was not bad.

Cons: The staff was quite rude, always looking up to you and seemed bothered by every request or question. Our room card didn't work half of the times, location is quite bad: plenty of homeless people sleeping in front of the hotel and the general feeling of the area is of a quite dangerous place. It was ok because we didn't expect much, but I wouldn't honestly go back.

Pros: Nothing

Cons: Description was very different from reality - no big pool, breakfast horrible.

Pros: Location and premises.

Cons: When I arrived the garbage bin in the room had not been cleaned. The A/C was terribly weak. The restaurant service was bad.

Cons: Breakfast could have been more variety
