Hotel Romantik di Rio De Janeiro

Chegamos 15h e o nosso quarto ainda não estava pronto, tivemos que aguardar uns 40 minutos e mesmo assim depois de liberado subimos e as camareiras ainda estavam arrumando, mais espera, fora isso foi uma ótima estadia e um café da manhã maravilhoso.

Good for one night only. Breakfast is a bit chaotic and not many food options. Sometimes you have to queue and wait for the elevators. The rooms are pretty good but the air conditioning needs updating. The view from the top is good! I wouldn't stay again, unless desperate for a place to stay.

Um dos melhore e mais enconta que já esteve no Brasil 100% lindo .confortável.calm..limpo Nota 10 vou indicar mais gente aí E espero voltar logo para me hospedar mais tempo

We stayed here the 2nd time after 12 years. Picked a similar room as we had 1st time: ocean view king suite. It is a bit more expensive than their cheapest rooms, but EXCELLENT value for money. We had room on the 12th floor directly overlooking the waves with two windows. As the hotel and beach is to the south, you get BOTH sunrise and sunset view from your room...see photos attached:) Room is good size, reasonably fresh with only a bit of age and spots here and there. Cleaning is ok, and hotel is in excellent safe area with direct beach access. We much prefer Barra da Tijuca anyway, against the overhyped and crowded, expensive copacabana. But each to his own. Hotel itself (lobby etc) is nice, staff is great, restaurant has very good food. The cocktails of their bar at ground floor as well as by the pool are excellent quality and cheap (as usual in Brazil). HOWEVER... a big however... After booking directly via their ”secure” website, via Amex card, my card details were either sold or re-used by somebody at the hotel staff, as BEFORE our actual trip began, it started being used at various (online?) shops in Sao Paulo, Belo Horizonte and even in Madrid. I had already a 600 euro hit (in some 10 different fraudulous shoppings) before i realized and blocked it. Lucky with Amex's good insurance policy i did not lose money directly on this, nevertheless i ended up with no Amex card on my 2-weeks Brazil trip as oi didnt have the new one yet, and in general it gave a bitter taste to this stay. Because of this i have to reduce the rating. So a word of advice: Book this hotel with confidence, BUT book it via a well-known room broker website, NOT directly thru the Windsor website!
