O colchão muito macio para meu gosto e travesseiro duro. O restante chuveiro, café e atendimento muito bons.

Save your money and run for the hills

Save your money and run for the hills! They present pics as a kind of cool boutique hotel but it is in shambles. The bathrooms have mold, floors dirty, construction everywhere. You have to pay to leave your luggage for a couple of hours even when they didn't have the room ready. Another couple of clients had the same situation.

Scammers

Worst stay in my entire life. Paid for an executive suite, got an awful twin room. Wasted an hour checking in dealing with lies and incompetence. Hotels.com intervened to secure a refund/discount and have also failed - despite the hotel managers false promises.

Very sunny Rio de Janeiro

Well maintained hotel, close enough to the beach many restaurants in the arounds. My breakfast was included, it was healthy and with options, good way to start the day. Front desk guys and bell men always helped. Cleaning ladies always smiling. Good option for short stays.

It is in a gear location for the beach. Also great for walking from there along the Boardwalk towards Leme and also to Ipanema and Leblon beaches. I liked going to the Tropik club across the avenue for breakfast instead of eating in the hotel. Much nicer to be by the beach. The price of the Orla Copacabana is reasonable. Has a pool area with good view along Copacabana beach which was nice.

2/10 Poor

Nos dieron una terrible habitación que no se parece en nada a lo descrito en la página. Estamos en espera de contestación de EXPEDIA ya que tuvimos que reservar otro hotel para poder disfrutar de nuestra estadía. Apenas cabe una persona por la puerta de entrada a la ducha. La ducha estaba llena de moho demasiado desagradable. Los mattress de las camas estaban rotos y curtidos. Las cobijas de las camas con manchas y las toallas en vez de ser color blanco ya estaban grises y rotas de lo curtidas que estaban. Solo pudimos soportar una noche debido a que no había disponibilidad en hoteles del área.

They have an amazing breakfast there! The rooms are pretty good! The elevator on the left kept getting stuck though, and me, and my fiancé were stuck in the elevator for 30 minutes and nobody could hear us.

Good location. OK breakfast. Room is in need of a face lift. Textiles and mattresses are worn out and should be changed. But no complaints because I got a very good price.

Mediocre hotel.

Okay for the price. Missing a few essentials like access to an iron/ironing board. No hot water one of the nights.

2/10 Poor

My door didn’t work. I continuously changed my key but it was never the key it was always the door that wouldn’t detect the key. The workers would use their key and it would still take at least 10 tries to work. I asked for a change of room and I was told it wasn’t a good enough excuse to change my room. Then, when they realized they said they would change my room then didn’t. Then, they said they didn’t have any rooms. It took them 3 days to finally change the lock which still had troubles, but was somewhat better. The staff would ignore the issue and they are very unprofessional.
