We enjoyed our stay at the Gran Marquise. With a splendid location, the hotel has a pool on the top floor with a magnificent view of the ocean. I found my room to be spacious, the bathroom newly redone. The mattress was however strangely lumpy and soft spoiling the magnificent king size bed. Breakfast was delicious with a wide variety... more

We just spend a week in what was sold to us as 'five star' lodging as part of a package. While the public areas of this hotel are quite nice, I certainly didn't find much 'luxury' here. Outdated furnishings, leaky and dirty tub-surround with too small cloth shower curtain, a bathroom mirror that had pulled away from the wall, and... more

I was supposed to stay at the Gran Marquise for 4 nights, but after the very bad first night, I switch to Luzeiros, which is way, way better. The hotel is a run down with many flaws, making it not worth the price charged and the luxury rating it received. I had a chance to look at a few rooms,... more

The rooms at Gran Marquise are large, with plenty of closet and drawer space. The service was friendly, and the price very reasonable by world standards. The food at the buffet was good, with plenty of fresh fruits. Breakfast is included in the room rate. But some of the details made the stay less than perfect. The view from the... more

I would like to concern you about "the Gran Marquise Hotel", Fortaleza – Brazil, never could be rated as a luxury hotel, based on international evaluation. I was there recently and I suggest you to make sure the information about this hotel are in conformity with your expectations and quality control. In my opinion, the quality falls short of the... more

This is may well be a luxury hotel, but to call itself 5-star seems a bit much, despite the effusive praise in at least one of the other reviews. The room we had was average in space and rather sparse in furnishings. The curtains did not close all the way. No noise problems. View was of an apartment building next... more

Fortaleza Gran Marquise Hotel "Absolutely magnificent!" Date: 23 Jan 2009 By: Craig Kokkeler We have just returned from a two week stay at the Fortaleza, Gran Marquise Hotel. The hotel is magnificent and we have never experienced such incredible service before. It was so lovely that it was hard to drag ourselves away from the hotel each day to either... more

My wife and I stayed at this hotel in January 2009 along with another couple for one night. We are Canadian. We booked this hotel, through a local (Brazilian) travel agent contact. The hotel is located between Praia de Meireles and Praia do Mucuripe The hotel accommodations are very nice and clean. The location is very nice from the perspective... more

Stayed a total of 9 nights in July 2008 - the hotel was booked by the company, and my wife and I stayed on for four more nights. Room rate for a double room (not with ocean view) was 217 BRL per night (roughly US150) Not worth it. The room was OK in terms of size, but had a constant... more
