Hotels near Shopping Areas in Paqueta Island, Rio de Janeiro

"My recent stay at the Miramar was a mixed experience with positive memorable highlights, but unfortunately a couple of negative experiences overshadowed my stay. I was staying solo at the hotel for 4-nights, and was pleasantly surprised at the excellent facilities of the rooftop pool, gym and extensive breakfast. For someone who travels over 100 nights a year, this was one of the best breakfasts in variety, quality and added touches that I wouldn’t usually expect. The staff were attentive, always willing to help and I recall lovely interactions with the concierge daily. Unfortunately my stay was overshadowed by an unusual no-visitor policy in the hotel, meaning no visitor can enter the hotel beyond the lobby. I can understand this for security purposes and avoiding unpaying guests in using hotel facilities, e.g pool and gym. But for business travellers, this could be extremely limiting with not allowing guests to accommodate paying clients in the restaurant / bar, or collaborate in working areas. It was the handling of my complaint which was the frustrating element, with delays in response from management, the chasing with front desk, and often condescending comments and interruptions from staff when discussing my complaint. Additionally, due to the high security from the hotel, I felt a lack of privacy with someone watching your every move and I see this is a common thought noted by other reviewers. Overall, I’m highly satisfied by the hotels offering, but disappointed. "

"Prime location. Will be back."

"Las habitaciones tienen un espacio moderado, pero los baños no se ven limpios necesitan más mantenimiento. Igual la piscina. Los staff muy buenos el wifi corría bien pero fuera de la habitación. El desayuno estuvo bastante bueno. El hotel fuera excelente si le dieran un poco más de mantenimiento. Porque tiene una ubicación perfecta cerca de todo. A unos pasos de la playa de Copacabana. Tiendas, lugares para comer a su alrededor."

"Excellent location , safety, beautiful hotel it just need renovations in some amenities. Friendly staff, clean rooms and amenities , amazing views from rooms and roof as well."

"This"

"The hotel is the best in Rio! Super close to beach and they provide beach supplies so you don’t have to rent. Also the room is really up to date and nice and comfy."

"Location and room views are great"

"This is a great location. The breakfast is actually very good there are many options and many of the staff were welcoming however I was disappointed at check in the host was very cold did not explain how the elevators work the hostess of the restaurant was kind and came ove to show me. Also I choose to stay at this place because I had heard great things about the roof top and I was not able to use on the night I checked, the form of imforning, was very impersonal. On the way out I was service by an employee that was extremely personal and very concerned about my experience. I hope the owners sees this, and Johnathan is rewarded for his service."

"Location is not in a nice neighborhood. Could not even take a shower as the shower area was not draining and causing pooling of water. Reported the incident but no subsequent action taken by attending staff at night. Hotel conditions needed a fix. Overall, I definitely cannot recommend this facility nor would I try the facility. "
