The staff is very welcoming and professional, most speak english, which I much appreciated. The hotel is neat, clean, and very modern in appearance with all the amenities you could want...has a 5 star feel for sure! It's also conveniently located in the middle of the strip with equal distance to either end of the beach. Lots of restaurants in the area within walking distance. The accommodations for early arrivals and late departures were much appreciated as well!

Hotel rooms etc feel quite tired - let's be honest, the rooftop pool is the star of the show. Staff were a mixed bag, some helpful; others not so much. Had a leak in my room when I arrived which took 2 requests to get fixed. Lobby etc is nice and I liked the pool area although it is busy for its relatively small size. Not too bad for the price compared to other more upmarket hotels on the strip.

Lauren

Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Amenities
The property was most certainly convenient, accessible to shopping, and eateries. The breakfast was great and definitely a good amenity for the hotel. However, we were not fond of the hotel staff, the room is extremely basic/bland/tiny with absolutely no view, and the pool is a matchbox. I don’t believe we’d visit again but the food was delicious.

Good hotel in Copacabana beach Av Atlantica, spacious and comfortable bed, nice shower. Breakfast is very expensive so decided to go out many bakeries and cafes nearby. Paid for vallet parking but with discount applied for guests. Hotel staff also helpful. Good hotel as the area is full of shopping and dining options.

I give it 5 star rating. I was a woman travelling on my own from England and felt very safe. The reception on my arrival was very approachable, friendly and welcoming, very helpful. Anything you need to know just them at reception and the will help you with everything you need and more. My suite was beautiful, clean and fresh. Housekeeping everyday. There is a good choice at breakfast, continental, cereal and eggs and bacon. Door staff very helpful. Sauna and the hotels pool amazing.😀
