We had a room on the 5th floor which was fine, higher floors would have a slightly better view I think, I thought the room size was great lots of space for our suitcases, bathroom had a huge shower with window through to the bedroom, Internet was OK and had good reception. We are at the pool bar after an... More

Im staying at this hotel while writing my review and for the next 9 days. First of all, smell. I'm in Rio 3 weeks a month so I know about hotels and its only happened to me here. Second, internet. I'm here for business so no conection half of the time is unadmisible. And finally costumer service. When I complained... More

My room was lovely, small but nicely furnished, great views, really good position. There are some really good points about this hotel but its let down by the common areas, pool bar and general appearance is tardy old and worn out, but its much like the entire area really, Rio is not for everyone I think.Biggest gripe is that the...

*non alcoholic drinks Other than great location between Ipanema and Copacabana, the one that i would like to highlight is the executive floors. Other than unlimited devices of sharing the Wifi, you will get the free flow of drinks as well as invitation the exec lounge on the roof top. You can bring 1 guest to accompany you. the view... More

This 5* (!) hotel is situated at the point where Copacabana meets Ipanema. The Hotel itself is quite impressive; the staff are relatively friendly in a French kind of way; and the view the full span of Copacabana beach from the room balcony was spectacular. The room itself was on one of the executive floors and was typical of those... More

Stayed for 18 nights a mixture of business pleasure. Room started off feeling damp as others have complained but by half way through that had gone. Very comfortable bed and pillows - the best of many hotels I have stayed in. Bedroom decor was fine and bathroom was good and ask working with nice big walk in shower with window... More

Nothing particularly good or bad about this hotel. Like most in Brazil, it feels overpriced and disappointing when compared to other 5 star hotels internationally. The decor is dated and uninspiring, rooms really need an update. They were renovating the functions area downstairs when I stayed so loud construction noise disturbed both pool areas. Check to see if this work... More

Hotel looks decently and clean. The executive suite was a fridge in the bedroom, so I was forced on her night off. Resonated quite a bit. Bathroom was a little bit uneasy in this room, I lacked the resources from Hermes, which are common at 99.9% at the Sofitel. Anyway, the room beautiful view of the rising sun. The Club... More

This hotel is supposed to be 5star but it was the worst hotel we stayed in in South America. The first room we were given there was mould everywhere, the bathroom doors were broken and the sea view was between 2 buildings covered in chicken wire. The second room wasn't much better, same mould problem, bathroom sink leaked and air... More
