Top Sao Francisco da Penitencia Church Hotel Reviews

B&B HOTEL Santos Dumont

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect for those traveling solo on business trips or for consulate interviews. The staff are very helpful. Juliana was there during my stay, and she was amazing helping me and my husband printing a lot of paperwork we needed for our consulate interview! We did everything by foot. 10min from the airport, mall and 8min from consulate. All walking distance. Highly recommend this hotel."

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."
