Top Samba Museum Hotel Reviews

Américas Granada Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Checked in after midnight and the staff was great! Could see Cristo from my room"

Casa Nova Hotel

8/10 Good

"I liked how the staff goes above and beyond to accommodate the needs of the clients. The breakfast is impressively good. The pool was actually very enjoyable. NOW, the neighborhood might disappoint when you arrive, but its people are great. I recommend a restaurant near by ( you have to meet Alá there) to take a caipirihna. Everything is close by, pharmacies, beauty parlor, barber shop, attractions, and the beach is just an Uber away. The price fair too. Casa Nova is the SPOT!"

Arosa Rio Hotel

8/10 Good

"Upon arrival, I was pleasantly surprised by the room’s ample size, which comfortably accommodated a family of five. The air conditioning system functioned effectively, maintaining a cool and comfortable environment throughout the stay. The breakfast buffet offered a wide variety of delectable options. The rooftop bar provided an inviting atmosphere with a selection of refreshing beverages. However, there were several areas that could be improved. The beds appeared to be quite old and unappealing. Additionally, mold was discovered above the beds and in the shower, creating a concerning health risk. The pillows were also flat and unappealing. While the location would be ideal during the carnival season, it does not provide a safe and secure environment for families, particularly with young children. I would strongly advise against booking this hotel for a family vacation. Despite these shortcomings, the service and food quality were commendable. Overall, this hotel is not suitable for families."

Hotel Atlântico Prime

10/10 Excellent

"Nice hotel and helpful staff! Also walkable in Lapa!"

Downtown Santana Hotel

8/10 Good

"This room was very small, but clean, and the staff was helpful. You do have to carry your luggage up a set of stairs."

Hotel Art Lapa

8/10 Good

"Good location for some of Rio’s key tourist attractions. Also close to bars and noisy nightlife. Area has many vagrants and people sleeping rough and constant smell of urine."

Hotel Atlantico Business Centro

10/10 Excellent

"Good rooms, everything was pretty clean. Close enough to everything I had to visit."

Hotel Monte Alegre

10/10 Excellent

"El staff de recepción son muy atentos cuando pueden ayudar. Desayuno muy bien. Ubicación cerca del centro para curtir el Río cultural. , histórico y arquitectura de varios periodos."

Hotel Atlântico Lapa

8/10 Good

"Le personnel de l’hôtel est très attentionné. Le déjeuner est excellent. J’ai moins apprécié le confort des lits. Les matelas sont désuets dans la chambre où nous étions. Malgré tout, je conseille l’endroit pour sa tranquilité."
