Vila Galé Rio de Janeiro

The hotel is super well located just a few minutes walking to the "Arcos da Lapa" and "Selaron Stairs". The infrastructure, including the pool and amenities, is really good. The room was decent-sized, the beds comfortable, and the room was really clean. The breakfast was all I hoped for, with fresh fruits, juices, breads, and even an "egg" station where you could order your preferred option and it was done right in front of you within a few minutes. The staff was incredibly nice and gave us all the tips we needed and answered all our questions.

Great staff. I was worried there would be a language barrier but they all speak great English. I flew in early on the New Year's Eve and my room wasn't ready so I was offered a place where I could freshen up. Also my first room was quite shabby - the aircon didn't work, there was no hair dryer and the light in the toilet was broken. When i mentioned the aircon to the front desk staff my room was immediately changed. The room was good in size and quite comfortable overall the pool, always a great addition

We arrived at the hotel at about 10pm at night and it was super easy and fast to check in and get to our room. There was a small shop right next door to get some beverages and snacks at that hour, which was good because it felt a little unsafe to walk too far in the neighborhood. It was a Saturday night and it was very busy in the area. We had a king size bed which was super comfortable. The AC worked great and the breakfast in the morning was nice. Unfortunately it was rainy and cold when we were there so we didn't get to use the pool but it looked beautiful. We were also able to leave our luggage in a locked room until 5pm on our checkout day which was great!

Very clean, staff is really kind and eager to help. We didn’t enjoyed the pool because we wanted to enjoy the beach but looked nice and not crowded. Location is perfect near to the Saleron stairs. Safe area by night to enjoy the nightlife in Lapa. Kind of Familly oriented so quiet in November when we stayed. Everything was really great.

the breakfast selection was the best thing about this hotel. also, we arrived early but they were able to check is in early as they had available rooms which was SO appreciated! friendly staff!
