The night staff was so welcoming and friendly—they answered all the questions we had and offered to get our bags to our room. Breakfast was plentiful and good. The shower was amazing!! Would definitely recommend!!

The hotel is a little tired, but I often stay there because it is clean, the staff are helpful and the breakfast good too. For the price it is excellent value, near to Flamingo beach and two metro stations, and Santos Dumont airport.

Its in a thriving location. My room was large and clean, well attended. The price was crazy good, especially since there is a charming breakfast buffet included. I really loved it.

The property is in a nice place. I felt safe and comfortable. The biggest issue is the internet. It is horrible just horrible. There is no way anyone can work while in this facility.
Brrakfast was also a disappointment and the same every single day for my stay.

Good location, but in need of makeover.
We have stayed at this hotel several times. The staff and quality of services are good, with a friendly atmosphere. However the rooms are tired and in need of a thorough makeover to modernise and bring them up to a more acceptable standard. Location is good near to Flamengo beach and bus and metro transport, and also near to Santos Dumont airport, Sugar Loaf Mountain within walking distance.

Average
We continue to stay at ths hotel because it is located near to Santo Dumont airport, Flamingo
Beach, and the Sugar Loaf Mountain (Pao de Açucar) as well as public transport facilities. However it is increasingly in need of a major refurb throughout, and although clean has a very tired appearance. Staff friendly and very helpful.

Very mediocre spot to stay
It was a mediocre hotel, people were nice, but very no frills. My first room didnt have a steady wifi connection, which I needed for work, but they moved me to a room on the top floor with a nice view and better reception. It was complete with a sketchy jacuzzi tub that looked rusted and from 1973. The immediate area was pretty urban with not much to do, but it was a few blocks from a nice park and two different subway stops that were easy to get around with. There was also a cute little bar for locals called Bartman right across the way, I went there a few times. I felt like the hotel was overpriced.

excellent location
My wife and I really enjoy our stay in this hotel. The customer service was excellent, every time we had questions about a tour or how to get to an attraction they helped us with out hesitation and always recommended the best option. The Breakfast buffet was delicious and fresh every morning. not a single complain, I would totally recommend this to a friend.

Rude staff, not gay friendly.
The Staff is rude and will question and not allow any male guests in your room or lobby. Male/Female is fine. The area is far from anything decent. Not recommended.

Good service/old decor.
This hotel was adequate for my needs as I wanted a comfortable room with just the basics. It had all the necessities such as A/C, bathroom, fridge. The room I was given was very large and had a large bathroom, but looked like it hadn't been re-decorated since the 1970's - apart from the flat-screen TV. The bathroom also harked back to a bygone era with a sauna room & a large hot-tub, but neither of which seemed to be functioning. The staff were generally helpful & friendly. The Wi-Fi worked well in the lobby, but was much slower or often lost connection in the room.

Not at all bad
The Rondonia Palace is in a pretty good area, 1 1/2 blocks from Flamengo beach (although the sea water there is bad) and a couple blocks from the subway station. We got in on an early flight and they let us check in early. The breakfast buffet is nice and we got room service once. The room is dated but comfortable. It was easy to get anywhere from the hotel. The only downside was communication. A couple of the staff spoke some english but the rest of the time I needed to use my 2 weeks' cramming of Portuguese or Spanish.
