Worth weighing
4 to weigh- An older building, but cared for — The hotel is of older construction. While it's well-maintained and rooms are clean, some guests note the building shows its age.
- Rooms can be on the smaller side — Some rooms, especially standard doubles, are described as small, though clean and comfortable. Families larger than four may find space tight.
- Value rating drags the overall score — With a value score of 7.4—below the hotel's other categories—some guests feel the price doesn't always match the room size or age.
- Pool is small — The rooftop pool is noted as small, though it's still a popular spot to cool off and take in the views.

7.6Verified guest“The room was beautifully designed and huge, with a city view. The minibar, flat-screen TV, and air conditioning were nice touches. The location is stunning, close to the metro station.”
7.6Verified guest“The restaurant’s buffet breakfast was great, and we both ordered fresh dishes. The staff were attentive, the room was recently refurbished, and the beds were exceptionally comfortable. The beach was just blocks away.”
7.6Verified guest“Early check-in was accommodated, and parking is nearby.”
7.6Verified guest“The hotel is older but well-maintained; our room was clean and comfortable for our family of four. Shower pressure was excellent, and the breakfast buffet was delicious, varied, and abundant. Staff were very warm, and the pool, sauna, and mini gym were great for cooling off—the sea is a block and a half away. Towel service for the beach and pool is a plus. Highly recommended, and I’d stay again.”
7.6Verified guest“We were told our reservation included access to the adjacent Royal Rio Palace (likely same ownership), and it was wonderful. Our room was small but clean with hot water and a comfortable bed. Staff were always attentive. The terrace has incredible views, a pool, deck, loungers, sauna, and gym, with toweling robes provided. Breakfast was super abundant—everything from eggs to churros. Location is ideal, two blocks from Copacabana and near a supermarket.”
