“We loved our stay here! Staff is very friendly and accommodating. Upon arrival they offered some sparkling wine which made us feel very welcome. The room was beautiful and clean, air conditioning worked perfectly. The bed was huge (I think it’s listed as queen size but it felt more king size, unless we got a room upgrade we didn’t know about) and comfortable. Breakfast buffet is delicious with lots of options. I especially enjoyed the banana with muesli and honey. The rooftop and pool area are very enjoyable. They serve good food, good cocktails and there are more than enough sunbeds so you don’t need to come very early to occupy one. Our country was playing a football match in the European Championships and they were so kind to let us watch it on the big tv near the pool. Unfortunately we lost :(. Our special regards for Wellington, he is extremely nice and accommodating! Always lovely conversations with him. In conclusion, we would love to come back to Portobay when we are in Rio next time.”
“We felt like at home all the time and whenever we had a question, the staff was super happy to help us. It was a lovely team. The hostel is very clean and has an amazing view. The neighborhood is safe and an experience itself. I‘d definitely recommend it!”
“I had a fantastic stay at Bamboo Rio Hostel! The staff were cheerful and incredibly helpful, always responsive and supportive with any questions. The beds were comfortable, and I stayed in a room with a private bathroom, which was a great convenience. I felt safe throughout my stay.
I attended a few events and parties with other travelers and had some amazing nights. The 24-hour reception service was excellent. The kitchen area was spacious, the pool was small but refreshing, and the common bar area was a fun place to meet new friends and connect with others.
Overall, I had a great time and will definitely come back to Bamboo Rio Hostel!”
“Nothing. It wan an absolute nightmare. The house keeping only came every day to make the bed and go. They didn't even sweep the floor or clean the bathroom. it was so disgusting. Couldn't even give us tissue for the toilet. what a disgrace. This place should be shut down. I have come a few times to Rio and stayed in Copacabana palace hotel, Miramar by Windsor, JW Marriott Hotel Rio de JaneiroCopacabana, Sofitel Rio De Janeiro Ipanema and NEVER have I BEEN treated soooo POORLY.”
