This is a hidden gem in Santa Teresa. So glad we took the time to look at every option in Rio for our holiday.

Front desk staff very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was excellent, as was dinner in Tereze. Area around may seem intimidating but very safe during the day, would not venture far at night. Make sure to know your route , do not wander aimlessly as it is close to several favelas. I would request a room not on the "mountain side" as this is right beside the tram line and noisy. Spa was nice, pool was great.

I absolutely enjoyed my stay at this location! What you see in the pics are exactly what you get. I honestly cant say enough great things about this property, and the staff! Everyone was friendly, I felt completely safe, the food was good, and the pool was a vibe! The area also felt safe and walkable, I will be returning!

Very nice hotel for couples

Just an amazingly beautiful and well run small hotel with great staff stunning rooms and lush well maintained grounds. Don’t be put off by the area either - its easy to get to by Uber or taxi and great to explore if you like laid back bars in an artsy location. And safe to explore as well.

Good location in quiet, safe neighbourhood close to nearby tourist attractions. Spacious room but facilities not as modern as I expected. The pool is nice but by afternoon it gets dirty with leaves. Very good massage by Michelle. The buffet breakfast has a nice selection but more options (eggs) at the weekend. The coffee is outstanding, a nice zesty orange flavour with plenty available at reception throughout the day. One thing that did annoy me was that in the rooms, they’re are notices stating they have a project to help the environment by reducing laundry and if you don’t want your towels washed that day leave them hanging up. I put one towel on the floor for washing and left others on the hook hanging for not washing but all towels were replaced. Why have signs if you’re not going to following this?? Also it annoyed me in the restaurant that only menus were available by QR codes, it would be my preference to actually see a physical menu for ease of use. Staff were friendly and provided assistance when requested

This hotel has lovely décor and the rooms are lovely with the eye for detail to what a traveler needs. The pool area is nice clean and calm with great service. The break feast was amazing with many options. If you love interior design this place is filed with small gems of natural artwork. The spa at the hotel was a lovely treat too. The location in Santa Teresa is very central and a walk around the area feels safe.

Amazing property and wonderful food

Fabulous hotel, staff was professional and friendly, most of them speak english too. We had no problem with that. Food and service was on point. (Kudos for having breakfast included on the room rate! ) The hotel location might be a bit too “exotic” and maybe hard to get to for some I get it, but was perfect to be on top of a hill around nature in Rio and we were at walking distance from various amazing places. I loved the small details as the chic Brazilian decor, the papaya fruit on the tree (so we could see the bird up close), to the attention to be environmental conscious on small details as using paper instead of plastic. Not for those looking for “old European high style hotels” this is a boutique hotel, but in any way I want it to sound like I am putting it down. I loved the place, I recommend it and would stay again. *if you can, get the room e the balcony ;)
