We just returned from Rio and our stay at the Sheraton Rio. We loved it. The view was breath taking, the service was good, the pizza was great. I loved listening to the ocean at night instead of the sounds of a big city. I would suggest this hotel to anyone. :)

i stayed at the sheraton (dec 07) and would recommended it to anyone.

PROS:

1. great value: rio is a pretty expensive place. i read some reviews saying this hotel was great but a bit far from the beaches. in a cab, it LITERALLY takes 2 minutes ($4 cab ride) to get to ipanema/leblon. that said, no hotel in rio comes close to offering such a ...

The hotel is nice, safe, most of the staff are friendly. However, it's very expensive to eat there! or consume the drinks in your room!
Location is another problem, you have to take a taxi to go anywhere.
the pool is samll. The spa services are very expensive and very bad quality.
I will not stay there again!

the rooms are ok.
the prices far exceeds the offer.
the pool is small and crowded
beach is tiny , dirty extremly wavy and
unpopular, you raRELY go there
no entertainement
no way to visit around other than taxi which every day 3times a day can be quite expensive

stay away if you can!

Room was of mildew.
Great View
Don't trust staff to do something,
always busy doing something else.
Very forgetful in carrying out a request.
Beach service very convenient and ready at your service.
Great breakfast buffet. Everything was fresh. Our stay was enjoyable.
