  • Engine customer May 2026

    The view was the only good thing Older hotel and Moldy smell inside rooms low light in hallways and AC didn’t work properly

  • Engine customer May 2026

    Location, location, and the location. Walking distance to the beach. Literally right across the street from the beach. And good restaurants and shops nearby. The room had a lot of moisture buildup. It was pretty clean but you can tell it was a lot of little marks/scratches on the walls. The light in the shower was leaking water and the sink didn’t drain properly. Overall if you want to stay somewhere that is decently priced and has a great location you should stay there. The room just wasn’t up to my standards. It was clean but had some cosmetic/maintenance issues.

  • Engine customer May 2026

    It has one of the best gyms of any hotel in which I have stayed.

  • Engine customer Apr 2026

    Good location, nice and polite staff!The view from the pool was amazing. The breakfast was same all 7 days. Changes only fruits.

  • Engine customer Apr 2026

    Upper floors facing the ocean…exactly the vibe we were looking for. The room had a comfortable bed, ample sitting room, and plenty of space. Breakfast should not be missed—great variety and conscientious staff helping everywhere. Walking distance to a ton of food and drink options (and a rooftop bar & pool that’s lovely.) Great place to come “home” to after touristy side trips. Spent hours on the beautiful balcony (day and night) seeing the activities and listening to the calming waves. Nothing better! Nothing to speak of…we really enjoyed the location and amenities!

  • Engine customer Mar 2026

    Staff was friendly and helpful. Bed were comfortable. The breakfast was really good with a nice view. While the rooms were overall clean the shower needed some deeper cleaning.

  • Engine customer Mar 2026

  • Engine customer Feb 2026

    The staff especially Franco at the front desk were super helpful and accommodating. The rooftop bar and restaurant. at the pool. The views. The proximity to everything. The overall professionalism and making you feel at home. The raspy towels

    Elevator incredibly slow

  • Engine customer Feb 2026

    Perfect location across the street from Copacabana Beach, within walking distance of many restaurants, shops and other hotels. Great rooftop bar and pool, though the weather was not the best when we were there. Amazing breakfast room with beach views and wonderful selections of fruit, breads, cheeses, meats, pastries, etc. Very friendly and helpful staff, comfortable lobby area. Loved our sea view room with balcony and cozy comfy king bed, wonderful bathroom and shower, also we had a nice sitting area with a sofa and table. Very comfortable. Tiny often slow elevator

  • Engine customer Jan 2026

    Great location , good breakfast , some great staffs are super nice and helpful. Nothing

  • Engine customer Jan 2026

    The location, good breakfast, the pool area was nice but it was raining so we couldn’t really enjoy it. Even though we were on 11th floor you could hear everything from the street the noise from outside and music from restaurants.Also didn’t like being harassed by ladies outside entrance of building every evening where security should be more stern as many other guests said same to me. The elevators are small and slow.

  • Engine customer Jan 2026

    The staff have always been great, I have been staying g st the Portobay since 2003.

  • Engine customer Jan 2026

    Reception very friendly Location, near everything balconies Rooftop Pool, nobody cares about things like putting used towels away, also when people block sunbeds, staff do only. one: serve food and drinks, for sure thats money, staff was also not friendly gym: air condition work only on one side. the only multifunctional machine is in a tight corner that only 1 Person. can use it. Different prices in online menu and printed one. for sure they charged me the more expensive Elevators are horrible, so long waiting times and then staff block it sometimes for their one us (even they have searate one). i lived in New York, but thats awful Room very old furniture and water all the time out of somewhere in bathroom Price Value-Relation not ok
