We offer a warm and friendly atmosphere and great spaces to relax in such as our lounge or sun terrace with panoramic views of Christ the Redeemer, the Sugar Loaf Mountain and Guanabara Bay.

We are also are very privileged to have some interesting residents in our grounds…a family of monkeys and a toucan often pop by, and the monkeys sometimes join us at the windows for breakfast!
