Hotel was much older and worn down than pics. Bedroom 1107 smelled of sewage the whole week. Walla has mold. Loud noise from water pipes when using sink. Bidet did not work. No kettle or iron available for use. Breakfast food was terrible and same Things. Don’t go after 9 am as it’s super crowded and it’s a feeding frenzy stampede. Breads not tasty, fruit not ripe, slimy eggs, super thick bacon that breaks your teeth. Food so bad even tea bags were awful and needed to use two of them for my cup of tea!! Front desk staff rude and blunt. Other staff nice . Rooftop steam room Never worked the whole week there. Decent view, but very little of beach and water . Power outage one morning for hours during breakfast stampede. Wasn’t fun walkimg 11 flights of stairs . Ask for lower floor.

The staff was very good in accommodating. I had a smaller room and upgraded for a very Good price for my ten days stay. My room actually had a hot tub and a sauna. I had two double beds. I only used one of the beds.The other one had a broken leg and one of the jets on the Hot tub was not working. The pool area is nice., But they really need to get some more lounge.Chairs ten to twelve more would be good. There are only three right now and they are broken. I use the gym frequently. And they actually put a new treadmill in while I was there. There is other equipment That needs to be replaced because it is broken. They have a nice little lobby bar but it is not used at all. The free breakfast that is included is great and they do a nice job of getting the people in and out and stocking the food and keeping it hot. There are many rooms at this hotel And I'm sure it is a challenge for the maintenance.People to keep up with everything. The house keeping staff to the great job!

This property is a little deceiving from the photos. It’s a pretty standard high rise hotel, service was fine but the room itself left us wanting. The box spring of the bed was exposed and severely damaged. We were provided a sheet and one thin fleece blanket. When we asked for more bedding we only got an additional fleece blanket, no comforter/duvé. The bathroom door was splitting at the top from wear people have clearly hung their wet towels because there are no hooks in the bathroom to hang anything. And finally, the bathroom faucet leaked our entire stay. It was fine, but for the price in that area, I expected a nicer room/accommodations

The hotel needs urgent restoration. Some staff, especially at the door were very polite. But they couldn't even provide cutlery if you didn't order from their restaurant. Will not be going back soon.

I enjoyed my stay at the Royal Rio Palace Hotel. It was perfectly located two blocks from Copacabana Beach. The rooms are modern and elegant. The breakfast buffet was impressive and had so many options you couldn’t try them all. It is in a safe area and centrally located. They have rooftop pools if the beach isn’t your thing or an indoor pool for wet days. We will return when we come back to Rio.

I had a generally pleasant stay. The location is great, making it easy to get around, and the staff were friendly and helpful throughout my visit. The breakfast was solid, and I appreciated having access to a gym and pool, although there were some water leakage due to the rain. The bed was comfortable so that's a positive point as well. On the downside, the hotel does feel a bit dated in some areas, and the bathroom lacked an exhaust fan, which made it a bit stuffy after showers. Overall, it's a solid choice if you're looking for comfort and convenience, especially with the amenities and service.

The hotel is nice overall, but for the high nightly rate, I expected a bit more. The pool is quite shallow—only about waist-deep—which was a bit disappointing. Breakfast was good.
