Zona Central 3 Stars Hotels

"Hotel "

"This is a safe, solid, budget friendly hotel in the heart of the Lapa Samba club area. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The room was decent for the price and area and I felt safe overall. The area is in close proximity to the mosaic stairs and on Sunday there’s an amazing open air market that takes place close by. The area is lively and full of the authentic Brazilian cultural vibe you’re seeking. I had a great time at the Samba bar right across the street, joined a street party that had live musicians from the community just spontaneously breaking out instruments and everyone singing (had to be at least 200+ people). Lots of bars , convenience stores, restaurants, and dancing all around. If you’re familiar with city life the area won’t alarm you. The people were amazing, but keep your wits about you as in any city. There’s a nearby gym you can buy a day pass at. I even got to witness a spiritual ceremony near the arches. Do yourself a HUGE FAVOR stay away from the tourist trap restaurants and visit some of the real local spots— I highly recommend going to a nearby Peruvian restaurant called Panka— thank me later (this is also the same area the open market takes place)! <3"

"Rooms were clean, breakfast buffet was varied, and the price was reasonable. Not the most touristic part of town but close to many places where to eat."

" Cons: I wish I could give this accommodation zero stars and that’s solely for the utter lack of empathy shown by the front desk staff and especially a woman named I think Ali?. When I walked in Feb 17 after being assaulted and robbed right around the block from the hotel, and announced it at while she was at the front desk, she could not give a toss. Neither did the security guard. No one offered any assistance or concern whatsoever. Even when I asked her to reach the manager for a first aid kit, she seemed bored. He in turn seemed surprised, but again ZERO sympathy offered. This dismal attitude is on par with the rubbish attitude of the reception in general. When you walk in no one says hello, and when you leave no one says goodbye. They seem completely and utterly uninterested in the guests. Absolutely appalling “customer service.” These people should not be in business or should be retrained immediately. The area is complete rubbish so 100% do not recommend staying here during carnival as that that was when I got assaulted by walking to get lunch around the block from the hotel. There was almost no one around in the immediate vicinity of the hotel, special later in the afternoon. I do not recommend staying here even during no Carnival because even though the immediate area is busier during the work hours (the Italian, French and German consulates are literally around the block!), it’s really unsafe at night and you HAVE to take an Uber.
