What a great place to stay! My wife and I stayed at Um Meia Tres and we felt welcome from start to finish. Very good location within Santa Teresa and is a 5 minute walk from the bars and shops. Our bedroom was clean, tidy and had amazing views of the city! Bill and Sue are excellent hosts and have... More

After a long flight, we arrived late at night to a very warm welcome from Bill who presented us with a cold beers at the bar. Throughout our time there, our hosts were on hand to answer our questions about everything about local attractions, local customs, safety and transport. There were maps and guidebooks for us to use too. Located... More

Sue and Bill - thank you for a lovely stay. After finishing an 8 day work event where I stayed at a 5* corporate hotel on Copacabana beach, Um Meia Tres was like a breath of fresh air.

Our stay at Um Meia Tres will be one such occassion we will cherish. It was all the things previous reviews have said -... More

The rooms are spotless with really comfortable beds... More

Having chosen to stay here based on the reviews we had read, we were certainly not disappointed. Bill and Sue and Simon are the perfect hosts and made our four night stay in Rio all the more enjoyable as a result of the information and advice they gave us about getting the most out of our time there. We had... More

I always think it's a safer bet to stay in one of the big chain hotels like Hilton, Best Western or Holiday Inn - at least you know what you are getting.
