Not a thing

All the rooms were spaced out so that you got complete privacy, attention to the decor was second to none. Gabriel & claudio were the perfect hosts could not do enough for us. The pool was also exceptional. We loved it so much decided to stay another 6 days. Breakfasts were delicious & a different variation every morning.

Nothing- Everything was exceptional

We were absolutely blown away by how beautiful this place was. Breakfast every morning was incredible it tasted amazing and there was such attention to detail. We loved being surrounded by nature but very close to the city. The wildlife was amazing - local monkeys and hummingbirds! It was so relaxing and the hosts are so welcoming. The bedroom was stunning and the pool was beautiful. Pure bliss!!

There was absolutely nothing to dislike about this place. I will warn travelers that you need to be able to climb a few flights of stairs, but that is how the view is able to be so spectacular.

I have traveled often, and this was one of the best stays I have experienced. The space itself was exquisite, but the staff and service was unmatched. We asked for a few recommendations while we were there (food and shopping a little more "off the beaten path), and were so pleasantly surprised.

Our stay with Claudio was nothing short of exceptional. As first-time visitors to Rio, we were delighted that we chose to avoid staying in Copacabana. Our host not only helped guide our choice of excursions but endowed us with his outstanding knowledge of Rio. Our accommodation was spotless and extremely comfortable, a real home from home. Apart from the amazing sights of Rio, the highlight of every day was breakfast, which is a culinary tour de force. The location is great and the property superb.

Lack of shower hot water. After a couple weeks of travelling around we wanted a really nice place to relax on our last night. One relaxing aspect to have a nice hot shower but I think the nozzle was broken and so only cold showers :(

The breakfast is outstanding. Food, service, environment, and view. The owners are really lovely also.

Beautiful boutique b&b run by the loveliest hosts. Everything throughout this hotel has been done with keen attention to detail, making it feel really premium, and the breakfast is unreal! The best I’ve had anywhere in the world. Pool area is lovely and the hosts are always on hand to help you plan your day and give you recommendations.

Casa Geranio is a truly exceptional boutique hotel and is a little paradise in the middle of Santa Teresa. The owners (Claudio & Gabriel) are incredible hosts who go out of their way to make sure all of your needs are catered for and to provide tips and recommendations of the best things to do in Rio. The facilities were great and the breakfasts even better. We came here on a recommendation from friends and will be recommending to any of our friends or family who are planning to come to Rio.

Very friendly and welcoming hosts, who had great recommendations for the area and Rio in general. The breakfast area has incredible views as does the pool and common areas. Will book again when back in Rio de Janeiro.

Drainage in bathroom sink was slow at times but really did not affect our stay negatively. Easy fix and just needs some drain cleaner

Very comfortable stay. Claudio and whole staff very responsive and accommodating to all our needs. Morning breakfast was delicious, fresh, and nutritious.

Nothing at all. This hotel is amazing.

The breakfast was extraordinary. They even change little details day to day like the china and foods served. The pool is beautiful and the view is breathtaking! The service is top notch and the rooms are clean and lovely.

Gabriel and Claudio are perfect hosts helping with great advise where to eat and what to do. They serve a fantastic breakfast which is a bit different every day. There is a great view of downtown rio. The location in the Santa Teresa district is perfect as well, with nice restaurants closeby.

This must be one of the most gorgeous swimming pools in all of Rio - so relaxing! The breakfast was also amazing and all the staff and owners were so kind, thoughtful and attentive. I’ll be back for carnival!!

Absolutely nothing

Absolutely everything about this wonderful place is so well thought out and perfectly executed. Claudio and Gabriel’s attention to detail and commitment to providing an excellent experience to their guests is faultless. Our room was stylish and beautifully appointed with everything you could possibly want and more, the plunge pool was a fantastic feature along with the two outdoor seating areas providing additional space for relaxing after a busy Rio day. The breakfast, as other reviewers have said, is utterly sublime not just with different dishes but also stunning crockery that changes daily along with the menu - all 5 courses of it! I could go on… and on… but needless to say, our stay was perfect and I cannot recommend it highly enough. Also, don’t be put off by the rather outdated safety worries on the internet regarding Santa Teresa, it is a wonderful district and a great alternative to the tourist favourites of the beaches. As with anywhere in Rio, care must be taken but we happily walked around both day and night with no problems.
