Our stay at Casa Geranio in Rio was truly amazing - thanks to Claudio, Gabriel and all the staff!! The breakfast was exceptional, with a wide variety of delicious options. The staff went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable, always ready to assist with a smile. The attention to beautiful details in the hotel's design added a special touch to our experience. We were thoroughly impressed and would highly recommend Hotel Casa Geranio to anyone visiting Rio! Missing the pool and Santa Teresa already!

We had a wonderful stay at the Novotel RJ Santos hotel. Without exception all of the staff made us feel very welcome. We don’t speak Portuguese but everyone made a great effort to either speak English to us or to understand what we wanted. We had breakfast and our evening meals at the hotel every day and both were exceptional. The food was delicious and great value for money. Our room was spotlessly clean. If we go to Rio de Janeiro again we will definitely choose to stay at this hotel.
