Rio 180º Suites & Cuisine - Rio de Janeiro

Wir waren auf der Durchreise und haben deshalb nur eine Nacht im Rio 180 verbracht. Das Hotel selbst liegt auf einem der Hügel, so dass wir beim Frühstück von der Terasse aus einen sehr schönen Blick über Rio hatten (zumal keine Zeit für Sightseeing war). Insgesamt haben wir uns im Hotel sehr wohl gefühlt und waren auch mit dem Zimmer zufrieden.

This hotel truly has one of the best views-not just in Rio- but in the world. Unfortunately like many hotels in this city, there is very little attention paid to maintenance and service. Fittings are cheap and falling apart, furnishings from Ikea are stained. There is NO FOOD in the hotel in spite of the name Suites and Cuisine (aside from a mediocre […] breakfast), and because of the location, it's extremely difficult to run out and get something (it can take up to 30 minutes for a taxi to arrive). Fortunately however, we were happy to stay in our room with the terrace and just stare over Rio. Be aware that if you do go out and come back at night, make sure the taxi waits for you until you get INto the hotel. We rang the bell for almost ten minutes, waiting for someone to open the door at 11pm. Not a pleasant thing in a neighborhood no one would call safe. Mehr

We had just finished 2 months of back-packing around Argentina and Brazil and we wanted somewhere luxurious to stay in Rio for our last week, and this hotel did not disappoint. Having read other reviews we knew that it was slightly difficult to find and out of the way but we actually didn't have a problem and all the taxi drivers to whom we talked during […] our week in Rio were able to take us there no problem. The hotel itself was fantastic; the trip getting to the hotel is worth it for the view over Rio which includes the Sugarloaf and Cristo Redentor. The bedroom was both spacious and comfortable and the breakfast was fantastic. The staff were friendly, generous, and spoke good English. There were a few minor issues with the hotel; there didn't seem to be an on-site restaurant (as one would expect from a hotel containing 'Cuisine' in its name) and it was a five or ten minute walk to the closest area with restaurants. The hotel had a few take-away brochures, and were happy to order for us, but the selection wasn't great. Some of the outside areas could also do with a lick of paint. However, it did seem like the owners were taking an active interest in things. Overall, if you want to be very close to the tourist-filled Zona Sul area of the city, this hotel probably isn't the best choice as taking taxis or even just public transport can be expensive. If, however, you are looking to come to Rio to relax, stay in beautiful surroundings, and have personalised service in a small boutique hotel with a view to die for, this is your place; I sincerely doubt there is anything better fitting that description in this price range.

Vista strepitosa, terrazza della stanza (Carnaval)eccezionale con idromassaggio non funzionante. Prevista ristrutturazione completa a breve; allora, se i prezzi non aumenteranno, sarà un posto veramente da sogno!

Hotell Rio 180 kunne vært et veldig fint hotell, men mangel på god kundeservice ødela opplevelsen. I tillegg var romkvaliteten noe varierende. Mitt rom Ipanema luktet råte og hadde skitne skuffer med ekkel lukt. Boblebadet på rommet virket ikke, og varmtvannet tok slutt etter noen dager. Det var maur og kakkerlakker på uteområdende. Det arbeidet sjelden […] mer enn en ansatt om gangen, og de hadde ikke middagservering hver dag, pga at de ikke var nok folk på jobb til å gjøre innkjøp av mat. Fat og bestikk var ikke alltid rent. Pluss for at de ansatte var blide, men gjennomgående mangel på kvalitet var overskyggende for hele oppholdet. Utsikten til Rio fra hotellet var imponerende. Mehr
