Hotels near Santos Dumont airport

Pros: Amazing hosts with the best recommendations and advice. The best breakfast ever

Pros: Beautiful place and Claudio and Gabriel could not have been more welcoming and helpful. We can't recomend Cassa Geranium highly enough. Oh, and the breakfasts are to die for.

Cons: It rained more than we would have liked, but other than that the accommodation was 5☆.

Pros: The breakfast and the pool were really the highlights of Casa Geranio. The waiter and manager at the property were really nice as well.

Cons: The room we got gave on the roof of the main house, so we did not get much of a view.

Pros: The interior design of this boutique hotel and it's grounds is exceptional, it feels (and is) very upmarket! The hosts were absolutely wonderful and we enjoyed chatting each morning at breakfast and getting ideas on what to see in the city, as well as gaining a perspective from a resident of the city. The breakfasts were the best I have had in a hotel in years!! Full of fresh fruits, juices and other treats. So, so good! I highly recommend staying here!

Cons: The location is a little out of the way if you are looking to spend time in the beach areas of the city. It is however, very well situated for nearby nightlife district Lapa and leafy Santa Theresa. Taxis to the beach area are exceptionally cheap if using one of the two popular taxi apps of the city.

Pros: I found both Claudio and Gabriel to be very good hosts, I always prefer to stay in small hotels it’s more friendly which I found here and the breakfast is delicious

Cons: Nothing

Cons: Just come and enjoy

Pros: The staff, the location, the charm of the place. From the first email enquiry through to the drop off at the airport, everyone there is happy and keen to make sure your arrival and stay will be the best possible experience you could have of Rio. As a mother travelling with two daughters, I felt totally safe thanks the to the advice of the passionate and caring owners and staff, and they were always on hand to offer the best advice of how to spend our time, where to go and eat and listen to music in order to fully enjoy the wonders of Rio.

Pros: What an amazing start to our trip to Brazil. We were picked up from the airport by Sergio, the manager, who was a welcoming, smiley guy to introduce us to Rio.

Pros: The rooms are very spacious , great showers and comfortable beds , totally quiet neighborhood , easy to get to with UBER !!! David and Sergio whom I both personally met are great helpful hosts , I would really recommend CASA COOL BEANS , within 5 -10 minutes you can walk to great restaurants , go for it you will not regret it

Pros: The room was very comfortable, clean and got a nice view, the breakfast was very nice and tasty. I stayed in Ipanema area as well but here is totally different kind of vives and more local, very nice to experience the area. On top of that, staffs are very nice and kind. They helped me out for many things and especially David is very kind and knowledgeable about where is the good places to go, so I felt very comfortable and very lucky to meet him. Thank you very much!

Pros: Sergio was great extremely helpful when we arrived at airport and very welcoming. They also gave lots of extra travel information and breakfast in fridge as early check out. Just a shame we didn't stay longer

Cons: Nothing

Pros: The host was friendly and helpful. Also the breakfast was great!

Pros: Maria is THE BEST! We don’t speak Portuguese but she uses the google translate app and is so lovely and helpful with everything. We planned to stay for 3 nights and ended up staying a week. Great rooms, good value for money, great breakfast with variety everyday - definitely recommend!

Pros: It was a nice experience: the price, location, rich breakfast (perfectly done)and, specially, the support provided by Maria, who made our stay the most pleasant and cozy. For sure we’ll choose Lapa Checa to stay in our next trips to Rio de Janeiro.

Cons: Nothing- everything was great!

Pros: Good location, easy to access to metro. Nice staff, although English barrier, but google translation is work. Good breakfast. Everything user friendly. Strong recommend.

Pros: Really nice room, was like a little apartment. Nice host.

Pros: An amazing host, she was lovely, very friendly and despite the language barrier we got by with Google translate. The room was big, an enormous very comfortable bed, air conditioning and spotlessly clean. Breakfast was delicious and she left us a packed breakfast on our last day when we slept in. Great location, safe and secure building. Id definately stay again.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Maria's home cooking. Advice and local knowledge from Maria, friendliness, good humour and fun!

Pros: My girlfriend and I had an amazing stay in the downstairs room overlooking the city. We felt nothing but the most helpful and no stress hospitality. A great chance to discover the wonders of Santa Teresa and enjoy a scenic tram ride down to Centro.

Cons: loved everyting

Pros: Perfect place to stay in Rio.

Cons: Nothing.

Pros: Incredible bed and breakfast in a beautiful mansion. Will stay again.

Pros: Beautiful boutique property in one of the best neighbourhoods of Rio. Everything about the hotel is gorgeous: the views, the rooms, the staff. Breakfast was a special experience served on our terrace overlooking the city.

Pros: Very nice hosts, beautiful house to stay, close to metro. I loved the place!

Pros: Splendid view. Host was very nice and took time to make suggestions and answer questions.

Cons: Nothing really. But keep in mind the the house is on the hill so best to go there by Uber/Taxi. And in the house itself are also several floors there so a lot of walking up and down to the kitchen, bathroom etc.

Pros: Carmen and Fernando were amazing hosts. The house is splendid and the neighbourhood is charming.

Pros: Fernando and Carmen were extremely warm and helpful. They were always available to give advice and make conversation. The house has a cool artsy vibe. It's a lovely space with magical views of the city. My room was on the top floor. It had a balcony with an amazing view. Santa Teresa is an interesting part of town-- definitely worth checking out for a couple days. And I'd recommend staying here. Great experience all around.

Pros: Great Breakfast, Fantastic View

Pros: Fantastic, beautiful house in great location with very friendly and helpful hosts. The views are incredible and house is very well designed with art everywhere and a comfortable, private space/room with its own deck and a lovely second balcony downstairs with a a cozy shared swimming pool. Great location with good access to the metro for wandering different parts of the city. The hosts were very accommodating and lovely, interesting people. I would stay there again in a heartbeat.

Pros: Carmen is really kind, really helpful and give you a lot advices to visit the city and best places in Santa Teresa ( example : Bar do Serginho close to the Casa ). The view from the balcony is incredible to watch the sunrise !

Cons: Nothing

Pros: The view, the owners and staff and breakfast. The shower after the day out!

Pros: Great location

Pros: Location, view from terrace, bar and pool area. Tram, shops bars and restaurants very close by.

Cons: All good

Pros: Amazing views, perfect location for our early flight the following day, great pool, good breakfast, clean and comfortable room.

Cons: There was a party either at the hotel restaurant on the last floor or next door all night and it was incredibly loud and my husband could not sleep.

Pros: Easy in and out

Pros: Location

Cons: Lack of maintenance. Air conditioning with problem, shower tap loose, work desk lamp loose, toilet cover loose. The air conditioning was crazy. Very bad service. I complained several times. At the end, I had to live with an intermittent air conditioning.

Pros: Easy access to the airport through the shopping mall. nearby many restaurant options. Great view on the rooftop! Plus the swimming pool on rooftop.

Cons: Staff were not flexible at all - as we arrived at noon and understood that check-in starts at 2pm. We would like to do the pre check-in first in order to save time when we're back in the evening, since we know hotels in Brazil are required to note down so many information from hotel guests. Unfortunately they refused to do any pre check in, and it took us around half an hour to get our room at the end when we arrived back to the hotel in the evening. We booked double room (double bed) but got a twin room. Guest Relation offered us to go back to the reception, can check and change room, but of course you have to stand in the line again. Offer refused as we did not want to wait another half an hour. the blanket sheet fell off easily. The design/use of the blanket sheet was bad/improper. You're basically sleeping with the blanket directly.

Pros: I had a great time at the hotel! The staff was very friendly and the view on the rooftop was absolutely amazing. The breakfast was really good and the options for dinner were great (there are even different restaurants around the place). I will definitely recommend this place!

Pros: The people in the reception friendly

Cons: My friend''s money have been taken by some body a round 1200 dollar The electricity cut 2 times

Pros: Hotel is just 5-10 min driving from the aiport. Location is good.

Pros: Good location and facility ; reasonable price

Cons: Need to list the additional 10% service charge more clearly

Pros: The location was convenient for sightseeing around the Centro and Lapa. If SDU is your airport, it’s only a 5 minute taxi ride.

Cons: It wasn’t a problem, but taxi drivers do not know where this hotel is. I had one tell me that he didn’t think that there were any hotels on that street.

Pros: The treatment

Cons: The room is not modern, the furniture is not modern and the price of the hotel is expensive and the structure doesn’t match with the amount paid. I was expecting a wonderful hotel.

Pros: We made a mistake with our reservation which the gentleman at the front desk fixed for us without problem, truly excellent service! The staff are lovely and the people at the front desk speak really good English! Sadly the weather was a little poor but otherwise the top floor bar and pool would be amazing! The views are amazing! The room was clean, the bed super comfy and a huge hot shower!

Cons: Centro is not the best place to go for a walk after dark but during daytime the location is a good base to start exploring the city. The hotel restaurant food is good but the atmosphere is not so good.. it's cold, lights super bright and no music so you can hear the kitchen staff messing about.

Pros: Location. Restaurant was not bad. And the play area for kids.

Cons: We've been to other Novotel hotels around the world. This one was the worst one. Service is not on a level of a 4* hotel. Staff in general careless. Not clean in the room (There was dust and rubbish under the bed: corks from wine bottles, plastic, etc...) Broken door lock... Worn out furniture...

Pros: I enjoyed the hotel location.

Cons: I did not like the information that hotel staff told to my daughter regarding to breakfast fee. I did a reservation with breakfast included and someone told that it was not included. And, I had to pay to park my car. It is another way to get more money from costumers. I really didn't like this kind of slyness.

Pros: Very convenient, walking distance from SDU airport

Cons: The old A/C was not working

Pros: The reception employees are all very nice, polite and helpful.

Cons: We have to change room due to maintenance, and the Laundry prices are very expensive.

Pros: The staff was very friendly.

Cons: Cost performance is soso.

Pros: We love the room, bathroom, beds and breakfast.

Cons: Our room was not ready at our arrival, with 2 kids timing is everything. We did not get an apology. We got a silly recommendation to accept a room with no space for the kids instead. A 4 star hotel cannot afford to have staff like this. The bar lady would not attend to us, she was on the phone for 10min. This all happened at our arrival, I guess first impression wasn't the strong point. Later all went great and staff was helpful and good. We like the room, bathroom and beds. Breakfast was excellent.

Pros: Property is ok, although below expectations when compared to other Novotel facilities I have been to.... External facilities are ok. Rooms clearly need renovation, and although we specifically identified the room for 2 adults and 2 kids, the sofa bed was not ready for the kids. Housekeeping definitely needs improvement...But the worst of all is the valet. Rude attendants, and very expensive.

Cons: Worst service ever by far is the valet parking. Extremely overpriced (BRL$42/day) and the staff was consistently rude (lazy, not willing to help, don’t come to you - you have to take the keys over to them, etc)

Pros: Everything was Good

Cons: Always same Breakfast

Pros: Wounderfull breakfast,nice staff, but they could speak a bit more english.

Pros: Kind reception helpful room service

Cons: More effort needed regarding room cleaning.Bad oudors from the window.Problematic room door card keys.Only few english speakers among the staff.

Cons: Staff working at the reception was inefficient and slow. We spent more than an hour altogether queuing up just to check in (we had to check in twice). Wi-Fi kept cutting out - we had to go to the reception around 4 times for someone to come and look at it.

Pros: Excellent breakfast Receptionist was very friendly and helpful

Cons: I don't recommend these apartments for those who visit Brasil in winter. No hot water, no heater in the room, only some fan with cold air only, between door and corridor there is a big hole so you can hear personnel talking continuously on walkie talkie starting at 6-7am. Much loud from outside air conditioners.

Pros: Great breakfasts, big rooms and bathrooms

Cons: First room we got wasn't cleaned, second had leaking toilet

Pros: Acomodações.

Cons: Confirmações de reserva.

Pros: Location very close to the airport

Cons: Had to wait around 1 hour to do my check in! If they know it could be busy should put more staff, no one wants to wait long for check in specially after a long trip.

Pros: The reception staff were excellent help to me as I tried to book a bus from Belo Horizente to Piumhi. After about an hour trying various sites at last sucess. The staff tried so hard to help.

Cons: There were no ammenities in the room even water.

Pros: one bed cloudy

Pros: The staff were nice. When I asked for something they showed up fast. Location is in ok near the metro station.

Cons: The internet was terrible. TV control not working. The shower was not good the stream of water was huge and not pleasant.

Pros: The best place to go to American Consulate!

Cons: I lot homeless around the place.

Pros: Facilities
