Nice people, great location, good breakfast! We walked almost everywhere in the historic center no matter of the rain. The restaurant and staff were very helpful. We had dinner at Majorica once which was really great and walking distance from the hotel. Thank you

Gorgeous well kept historic property. The breakfast the the afternoon tea were outstanding. We forgot our jackets in the room's closet. The hotel staff found it. We gave them our location, a hotel in Rio de Janeiro. They mailed to us, and 2 days later we received our jackets. Outstanding hospitality service.

Despite having reserved a royal suite room upstairs with a garden view which we had stayed many times as a repeated guest they put us on a lower level room with bad smell , mouldy walls, no shampoo, the bedroom upstairs was very noisy, a machine outside didn’t let us sleep, the breakfast is very average, watery orange juice, very little fruits . It was the last time we will stay at this hotel.

Não achei que o valor pago seja compatível com as instalações e principalmente o café da manhã. O café tem um formato diferente. Ficam expostas frutas, café, sucos e bolo, demais itens você precisa pedir (omelete, pão Petrópolis etc). Deveria ter um cardápio em cada mesa juntamente com uma ficha para marcar o pedido e entregar para o garçom. Facilitaria. Digo isso porque minha filha queria nutela e só ficamos sabendo que tinha porque uma criança na mesa ao lado estava comendo.

Hotel bonito no estilo imperial. Café da manhã fraco com pouquissimas opções e iguais todos os dias. Os quartos mais baratos ficam em um prédio cuja rua é bastante barulhenta. Nao é confortável para dormir. A piscina aquecida estava suja e aparentava descuido. Jardim muito bonito, bem cuidado e funcionários prestativos. Localização excelente para ir a pé aos pontos turísticos.
