I thought this place was too expensive for what was offered, everything was very basic, the rooms were so old fashioned and the blue decor does not add any nice touch it just makes you feel like your in a hostel or convent. I paid £75per night but was happy i only stayed for 2nights, i do wish i paid... More

We stayed at the Hotel Santa Clara in the Copacabana beach area of Rio de Janiero from Sept 3rd to 10th,2012. This is a boutique type hotel in a quiet neighbourhood.The rooms are dated,but maid service was great and the rooms were kept very clean.The room was quite roomy with a double,desk with chair,table with two chairs,bathroom with large shower,...

We stayed there during Carnival 2012 and it was overpriced just like all other Rio hotels at that time. The room was okay, and the employees were helpful and nice. Breakfast is simple and delivered every morning to the room. The location is not so bad, 15 minutes walk to Copacabana beach and the area is safe. It is also... More

We ended up without reservation and fortunately there was still room. Although quite a walk from the beach, this hotel in Copacabana lies in a very quiet family neighbourhood. The room was spacious and clean, the hotel staff friendly and helpful. After having checked out several hotels in the area, this was by far the best value for money (although... More

I checked into the hotel santa clara yesterday and was greeted very kindly by the reception of the hotel. He offered us many tour options while we were settling the payment. Our room was on the first floor but very clean and cute. The bathroom is small but clean and shower pressure was amazing. We have a working air conditioner... More

The hotel is well located and perfect if you are in Rio for business and don't want to keep seeing the same suits of your co-conference visitors everyday. As an extra the hotel makes it possible to personalize your wake up calls and the sound of that voice in the morning just gives you back the joy and energy you... More

I check ed in this hotel paid with my credicard, went to the room for 5 minutes where me and my partner decided to don't stay in the hotel, when we asked for our money back they just sad it is a policy from the hotel that once the receive the money they never give it back, we were completely...

Guesthouse style format. The place is antiquated, and unfortunately not in a charming way. A dump actually. Breakfast, such as it was, served in the room. Old, noisy air conditioner. Rock hard bed and pillow. If you're looking for alternative to in front-of-the-beach, bland chain hotel this is it all right. If you select this hotel because you are looking... More

Having been there in 2007 (same period of the year) and having found back then that the location is quiet and safe I booked back in October for a stay on the eve of the Carnival. Room type and prices were agreed in writing in emails but I ended up paying significantly more, arguing on arrival to get a front... More
