I stayed here for a week on business – it felt like one of the longest weeks of my life: The noise from the building sites surrounding the hotel was constant and its dark everywhere but the top floors because skyscrapers circle the hotel with a picturesque petrol station out front to top it off. The reception staff were unhelpful.... more

The Melia Brasil 21 is a marvelous hotel located across the street from the tourist attraction TV tower in the center of Brasilia. My husband and I stayed for 8 nights and would recommend it without reservation. (Don't misunderstand, you have to make a reservation!) All staff were extremely courteous and helpful. The facilities were without fault, very clean and... more

What an outstanding hotel! Welcome and check-in were extremely cordial. The view from the glass elevators at the top of the atrium is just stunning. The room was totally clean, very comfortable, and it exuded high quality throughout. Breakfast is also included in the room rate. For an unforgettable dinner, eat at Fogo de Chao, which is across the street... more

I spent 4 nights at the Melia Brasilia, in spite of the somewhat negative reviews I read here. I found the hotel to be very well-run, with excellent services and good catering. They are making some very interesting efforts to be a "world-minded" -- ask for a room on the 5th floor, the "green" floor; everything is recycled or recyclable,... more

After staying at Sao Paulo's Gran Melia Mofarrej, Melia Brasilia does not compare! Service, attention to detail and friendly associates are what you find in Sao Paulo, but not so much at Melia Brasilia. How can hotels from one chain differ to this extreme? I couldn't get an iron and ironing board, my phone was broken, and the power kept... more

I had a mixed impression of the hotel. The rooms are nice and big, American size. The breakfast buffet is good, too. Otherwise, there are a few minuses such as a ridiculously little pool and the rather drab location. About the latter there is probably little you can do as hotels in Brasilia are confined to the designated "hotel sectors". more

The Tryp/Melia Brasilia was a very good hotel. The staff spoke English and were very helpful. The sitting, bedroom and bathroom were very large. The hotel was modern and undergoing some samll scale changes as it had just changed hands. We asked for the Tryp hotel but the taxi drivers all knew it as the Melia chain. Could not fault... more

Very clean hotels, very courteous staff. However, on the night we stayed, there was a rock band performing in the lounge until 1 am. Even though we had a room on the 19th floor, the hollow lobby to 20th floor architecture of the hotel carries the sound all the way up. Other than that, we enjoyed the comfort of the... more

This is a beautiful, very comfortable hotel. The rooms are spacious with lots of room to spread out; the bathrooms are equally posh. The lobby is large and comfortable. There is a business center; internet access is available for a small fee. The restaurant is nice and serves a great breakfast buffet with many choices. The menu at lunch and... more
