Having stayed at a variety of allegedly very good hotels, and having had many disappointments, I booked this place because of some rather good reviews. We were not disappointed at all, but positively surprised. This is an apartment hotel that serves a decent breakfast. It does not have a restaurant for lunch or dinner. The hotel is located 1.5 blocks... More

I have become a great fan of Rio since my last visit, last time I stayed on this same place and the experience was something special. I think this place is one of the best hotels in Leblon and Ipanema areas of Rio. This hotel is quite new and location is very beautiful but according to me the rooms are... More

Hotel location is probably one of the best in terms of Rio. Amenities are 2-3 star level in USA or many other countries but for Rio, it is what you'll get. Small rooms, clean but not well updated. As for the staff, they are simply rude and clearly have no understanding or appreciation of basic service culture. Unless you want... More

I would give 3 and half stars for the overall room and hotel, but five stars for the location as it is only a block from Leblon Beach. The hotel is average and a good place if you only need it to sleep, as there is nothing else going on in the hotel. The breakfast is fair, typical brazilian buffet... More

Given the poor choice of hotels for the Leblon and Ipanema areas of Rio, this property stands out for being well located, practical and relatively young. Rooms have generous size and basic ammenities. The hotel tries to cater both to the business and tourism visitors, but specializes in neither areas - no business center nor cozy environment. Breakfast is included... More

This hotel has two great pluses: location and cost. It is located at Leblon and less than 5 minutes away from the beach. The facilities are not over the top, but enough to satisfy the average traveller (I would recommend some refurbishment in the bathroom and I also didn't see an iron, the latter being a big help to the...

In Rio almost all hotels are old and very expensive, Promenade Palladium was a good surprise for me. It was my first time in this hotel and I recommend it! The location is great, near the beach, restaurants and bars, in a safe place. The room was clean and spacious and the breakfast was delicious. It is a little expensive,... More

Those who have been to other hotels in Rio know what I mean: even posh ones lack the service and maintenance one would expect from a good hotel. So you end up paying prices of a luxury hotel to stay at a run down on. That is why this hotel is an excellent choice: good rooms at an an excellent... More

We booked a 'Luxurious Double Suite' for 6 nights. It was a very good, spacious room, with kitchen area, sofa, table and chairs (see travellers' photos). Excellent huge comfortable Kingsize bed, linen changed daily. Good bathroom, large shower. All clean and nicely presented. Pleasant and cool (didn't need AC on). Some noise from next door (noisy person!). The balcony was... More
