Hotels near Rio de Janeiro-Galeao Airport

Pros: I picked this hotel as it was close to the airport and discovered the crazy and fun place that is Feira de São Cristóvão, go at a weekend when it is open 24hrs! Hotel is fine, staff are lovely but you will have to practise your Portuguese.

Cons: Close to a noisy road but it does quieten down at night.

Pros: Staff is super friendly and tries their hardest to communicate with a non Portugese speaker like me :)

Cons: The bathroom could have been a bit more cleaned, but since you're sharing it with other guests, it's understandable.

Pros: The hosts were so welcoming, helpful and lovely. Very clean, big shared bathroom and comfortable room. The finishings are so cute with lots of attention to detail! Really enjoyed our stay here! Obrigado!

Pros: Breakfest was good, the romm and shower also nice

Cons: They forced my to check out at 10am because a group was coming. I had a flight at 17:00 pm and i asked them just to leave my bags because i had no where to go, they refused and told me to go out with all my staff. Real shame and not generou

Pros: The location is really close to the airport and the airport shuttle service is really helpful

Cons: The breakfast is really poor comparing to the price.

Pros: I stayed there for one night, as I had another flight to catch, but the hotel is pretty and quite modernistic. The rooms are spacious. The pool is really good, the gym likewise. The staff is very kind and the location in terms of closeness to the airport was great. They provide you with a shuttle bus to and from , free of charge. And it takes only 2 minutes :)

Cons: The only thing I did not particularly liked is that I don't know if the upper window was foggy or dirty, but it was not very see through.

Pros: the free transfer from the airport to the hotel, leaves every 30 minutes, and the driver was very attentive.

Cons: I arrived from a 15 hour flight from Dubai and my check in took almost 30 minutes to find my reservation on the system. Need to improve this.

Pros: It is just next to the airport. Facilities are clean. Breakfast is good. Restaurant has good options to dine, and grab’n’go is very convenient.

Cons: Information about you having to call reception to call for transfer was not clear. Unfortunately it is not possible to go from the airport to the hotel without a car/transfers.

Pros: Perfect option for early flights from GIG airport. Free shuttle, a pool (that closes at 19 or 20 o'clock though). Didn't have time to stay for breakfast and the staff wasn't able to offer a lunchbox.

Pros: The hotel is literally 5 mins away driving from Galeao airport, hotel shuttle bus runs every 20 mins, is easy to find (2nd floor- departure level, gate D) I like the convinience of the hotel more than the hotel itself, after flying 14 hours from DXB and 12 hour stop over to Lima’s airport, all I needed was a place to rest. I recommend the shuttle to go to the aiport to eat there rather than the hotel. No snacks or fridge in the room

Cons: The property is ran down, needs maintenance, not so sure is value for money, just money for convinience

Pros: The hotel is modern, clean, comfortable and right located just in front the airport . the breakfast (included) is very good . Also there are free transportation from and to the airport from 5 AM to 12 PM . The pick up location is Terminal 2 just in front of boarding door D (There is sign at the side walk with the hotel name) . Please , pay attention for this detail ... the pick up in at boarding location, not arrival location .

Cons: At the hotel web site the transportation from and to the airport details are not available . The web site does not supply the pick up location (had to call the hotel to get those details) . Also , the web site and the display at the airport says the service is available 24 hours BUT the van driver said the service is available for 5 AM to 12 PM ..

Pros: Breakfast is plentiful. Rooms are comfortable and clean. Good size balcony in room 7.

Cons: Water on the stairs to breakfast every morning and no sunbeds is annoying. Also dont eat in the evening. Not good.

Pros: - comfortable bed - good shower - friendly and professional staff - good restaurant - close to airport

Pros: Location, Ilha do Governador is a lovely place to stay, good restaurants, not that far away from the Pousada.

Cons: The bedroom size was good, but plastic curtains put me off straight away it was awful, bathroom was dated, toilet seat was broken and one of the shower taps was broken too and the shower window gave no privacy whatsoever as the cheap film the was there was ripped in different places. Clean but I had to request not more bleach to be used as it was too much and smell made me sick. Swimming pool looked dated, the only thing great in that area was the view. Members of staff gave a 5 star service from reception to cleaning staff, outstanding.

Pros: The calmness and tranquility of the area and the atmosphere was blissful. Also beautiful views.

Cons: beds were too hard and not easy to find at night-time.

Pros: Easy access to airport

Cons: Lack of hooks to hang towels in room

Pros: Literally EVERYTHING! Amazing value for money well impressed with cleanness! Great decoration and views! As soon as we walked in in our room the radio was turned on with soft jess, room was decorated so nicely and amazing smell through out the hotel made an entire difference! Very kind staff! Couldn’t recommend more!

Cons: That we only stayed for one night!

Pros: The central location & the room

Cons: That abstract painting in the lobby

Pros: Great cost benefit

Cons: All good

Pros: The rooms are big enough and clean. It’s quite at night. The staff was very kind. It’s convenient for people who needs to be around Duque de Caxias. This is not a touristic area, but without traffic its 25 minutes far from RIOGaleão airport.

Cons: Breakfast and old towels.

Pros: The hotel was very good and the staff as well. Good location and installations. I just booked for one night and it was good for my needs.

Cons: I was expecting a better breakfast the products were not fresh and the juice was industrialized. Since I am in Brazil I was expecting real juice from fruits and fresh products. They served old bread; cake... It was not as good as the hotel installations.

Pros: good breakfast good location good for short period

Cons: the blanket smelled the room was a little damp

Pros: Breakfast, availability of beds, kind of aircondition. Soap and shampoo. Water dispenser.

Cons: Staff is friendly, but doesn’t speak english at all. As far as spanish. Barbie-sized dining room. No wardrobe or at least a nightstand. In fridge-water, mold and peeling paint. Poor water pressure. Excellent audibility. One and very small trash bin in the room. Poor pillows.

Pros: The staff were very nice and attentive

Cons: The room was tiny, I think you get more room having a bed in 12-people dorm. The location is not ideal

Pros: Decent breakfast (6:00-10:00) with decent coffee, fresh fruit, bread, meat and cheese. Close to the center. Plenty within walking distance, including public transport. Toiletries were nice. Water filter in the hall.

Cons: Window overlooked cement walls (used as a garbage dump).

Pros: Staff

Cons: Air conditioning that was not working

Pros: Everything was clean, aircon was nice and cold, their pizza was amazing!

Cons: We got the room because it was advertised as having a spa and sauna. When we arrived they said it didnt work and yet we still needed to pay full price.

Pros: The staff was pretty informative. Walking distance to Mauá square.

Cons: It’s an old property located in a sketchy neighborhood. It is close to the city center but not quite the center. The mattresses was not comfortable and facilities could be cleaner.

Pros: The corridor wall is terrible and dirty .

Cons: The breakfast is too simple !

Pros: Room service, private sauna and jacuzzi tube in rooms

Cons: Internet almost not working. Is near to a dangerous zone so walking around is not an option. Big portions when ordering room service.

Pros: If was close of my needs

Cons: Some mosquitos inside the room,

Pros: The parking is so narrow... you need to close your car laterals mirros to avoid touch the walls... You need to go little stair to hit the elevators to go in and out from elevators... Very humble neighbor... but the staffs are gentle and the place are clean. Humble breakfast too ...the coffe plastic bottle; doesn’t works and the staff need to stay close to help the customers with (was better buy other; please...)

Cons: The stairs to go on and out the elevator

Pros: The staff was very sympathetic and helpful

Cons: The air conditioning system and the breakfast

Pros: A guy would hold open the doors for us, which was nice.

Cons: Hotel looks like an 70s former love hotel used for a horror movie like The Shining. The hallway and room are very unpleasant, eerie and dimly lit places that made us feel depressed. Elevator was wobbly and scary. Everything once white was as yellow as heavy smoker's teeth. Mattress was made of mostly plastic (love hotel proof?), so we sweat a lot during the night. Breakfast was super basic and also had the creepy atmosphere with dissonant classical music faintly playing with reverb.

Pros: Basic (small!) room but clean and breakfest provided.

Cons: Beds were tiny (we're 1.85 and 1.87) so our feet were hanging over the edge all the time. Shower water ran out of shower a bit which was frustrating. Walk to metro during carnival wasn't the nicest walk!

Pros: Nothing really...

Cons: The staff didnt speak a word of English or any other language apart from Portuguese...the smell in the bathroom was horrendous and the general cleanliness is disaster as well as the facilities. Location is both central and convenient but also very close to favelas making it quite dangerous and dirty too. The stuff is very cold and impolite...definitely not looking to help and assist their guests... will not recommend it...

Cons: Air condition was very loud outside

Pros: Room is enough big for two people. It was clean. They could keep our luggage after checking out until our flight.

Cons: Wifi signal was weak. And air conditioner was broken. Actually all furniture was old (like a grandpa home). Electric plugs were not reliable.

Pros: Spacious rooms

Pros: Somewhere cheap not too far from the airport before flight.

Cons: There isn't really a beach. Tiny strip of mucky sand , filthy water and rubbish. The hotel was virtually empty but they insisted on charging us extra per hour for checking in early as we arrived in the morning. We were shattered after arriving from Chile overnight between flights and we wanted a shower and go to bed so paid.

Pros: This place is fair The staff hardly speak English

Cons: About 50 minutes away from Rio de Janeiro City center, about30 kilometers which is mentioned only 13 kilometers.

Pros: Working people

Cons: Terrible hotel, not clean, very small tv, all the time coming some noise from outside, big noise from AC and you can not adjust AC.

Pros: A few of the staff were nice and engaging. Most were not helpful or didn't speak English. This is a hotel for locals, not international travellers.

Cons: The bed matress was just a 3 inch foam mattress so very uncomfortable. The wooden shutters for the window were cracked with holes you could see through so every noise on the street came through loud and clear. With all the foot and people traffic outside the window it was impossible to sleep. It sounded as if your bed was in the middle of the road. Additionally, they don't speak English, had no local attraction materials or assistance, and the "restaurant" had only two options (beef or chicken) and even then they were out of beef.

Pros: FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE,I SHOULD SAY NOTHING. THERE IS NOT A COMMON AREA WITH A SOFA....NOTHING, ONLY ROOM...AND IN GENERAL THE BUILDING IS IN DARKNESS AND DIRTY CONDITION.

Cons: NOTHING.THEY ARE SCAMMER. PICTURES WAS NOT REAL. FIRST NIGHT GAVE ME A ROOM WITH BROKEN DOOR LOCK, SO I WAS TRAPPED INSIDE, AND I HAD PANIC ATTACK. SO I DECIDED TO SLEEP IN OTHER PLACE. THE DAY AFTER THEY GAVE ME A NEW ROOM WITHOUT HOT SHOWER. AIR CONDITION IT WAS ALMOST EVER SWITCHED OFF, IF YOU NEED IT, YOU SHOULD GO IN RECEPTION AND DEMAND IT. THEY DON'T CLEAN MY ROOM. EVERYTHING IN ROOM IS BROKEN, OR HUGELY OLD. IN ONE WORD: DISGUSTING

Pros: a simple but clean and good hotel. excactly how i like it. totally unpretentious but still its a real hotel with privacy, cleanliness and good service. the breakfast was simple but ample and excellent in its own way. you got full for 3-5 hours before you need lunch again. the room had excellent airconditioning that could be controlled excactly how you wanted it. nice simple restaurant%bar nearby and also very close to the excellent museum of tomorrow. 10 mins walk there.

Cons: the staff could know more english, but everything worked out fine anyway. the walk to the metro was a bit on the long side...10 minutes through dirty sometimes smelly street, but very easy to find. this is Rio though, dont expect everything to be like the standard of central manhattan ;) its the way i like it though!

Cons: The noise from the front desk echoed down the corridor

Pros: Price quality is exellent! Clean room with airco and tv, not noisy at night. Very basic room with just everything you need.
