The Sheraton is a large property with its own beach and a lovely pool area. We stayed for 3 nights at the end of our holiday and enjoyed a relaxing time round the pool. The rooms are large although ours on the second floor in the low rise block was slightly old fashioned and in need of an update. However it had a lovely furnished balcony which we enjoyed.

Never having been to Rio de Janeiro, I relied on the photos of and from the Hotel as well as the reviews. Since the moment we arrived to the time we left, we were elated about our choice. Ipanema was walkable. Our fourth floor balcony with ocean view was simply breathtaking . I have to add that our bed was SO CRAZY comfortable, were it not for the view tempting me from bed just there between our curtains, I might not have seen ANY of Rio. OH, the food! Their restaurants were superb and service/staff that truly spoiled us all week. I would highly recommend Sheraton Grand Rio and would return there in a heart beat. THANK you Sheraton and Expedia for another trip of a lifetime, truly.🌟❤️

Do not stay here!

Highly recommend staying elsewhere if you're planning to visit Rio. At many points of our time during this trip, we were met with rude and poor service from staff from check-in to check-out. During check-in, we were told our room wasn't ready (we were early so that's understandable) but never notified when it was ready and we had to keep coming back to the check-in desk to inquire. Then, there was another instance where we came down for breakfast (we paid for a Club access room with breakfast included) and the attendant at the desk just assumed that we didn't have breakfast access without even checking our room number or name. We couldn't help but feel racially discriminated as many other folks just walked into the breakfast area with ease. Later that same day, a friend of ours who is also staying at the hotel was going to meet us at our room on a different floor. He came to ask the front desk to call us and let him up and the front desk wouldn't let him because of "guest safety" when our friend is ALSO A GUEST. We even called the front desk to let him up and the front desk refused to do so. Again, another instance of racial discrimination and assuming that our friend wasn't a guest at the hotel. These are just two of the many instances where we were met with rude behavior when we are paying guests at this location. For the price, it is absolutely not worth it.
