Worth weighing
4 to weigh- Limited check-in window — Check-in is only from 14:00 to 20:00, which may be tight for late arrivals. Check-out is from 08:00 to 12:00.
- Not the cheapest option — Rates start at £257 per night, which is on the higher side for the area, though the service and setting may justify it.
- Some areas rate lower — One category (cat7) scored 7.5, suggesting some aspects may not match the overall high standard.
- No pets allowed — The hotel does not permit pets, so it's not suitable for travellers with animals.

The room had great amenities like air conditioning, a mini-bar, and a balcony, and the free Wi-Fi was a nice bonus.”

You can easily catch a train to Cristo Redentor for stunning panoramic views. The rooms are spacious and clean, the bathrooms are modern, and the staff are friendly and eager to assist. Breakfast is fantastic and generously served, and the view of the rainforest from the pool area is breathtaking.”

The location was perfect – close to the train to a famous monument and reasonably close to the main tourist areas, but still on the edge next to the urban rainforest.”
