Top National Library Hotel Reviews

Itajubá Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"C"

Windsor Asturias Hotel

8/10 Good

"L'accueil a été très bon et très professionnel de la part du personnel. Les installations sont correctes et en bon état. Il est situé en centre-ville et peut être un peu incommodant la nuit, car il y a beaucoup de sans-abri. Pour le reste, l'hôtel est très bien situé pour les réunions d'affaires."

Américas Granada Hotel

10/10 Excellent

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

Prodigy Santos Dumont by Wish

8/10 Good

"Location is the main reason to stay here if you have a late arrival or early departure from SDU"

Hotel Atlântico Prime

10/10 Excellent

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

360 Rio Santos Dumont

8/10 Good

"The only thing I really didn't like this trip which is a disadvantage versus when renting a hotel here is that when my guests came even though I paid for me and a guest it was difficult because you had to add them to your guest list by submitting a request online to whomever the person was that had the lease or on the apartment whereas a hotel person just present their ID and then they go up with you. The process when you want a guest after you checked in is perplexing and you have to be patient because you have to take time to get in contact with the owner."

8/10 Good

"Great place and laid back. Highly recommend eating the appetizers!"
