I stay 5d at this hotel, I had a good experience there, clean room, good breakfast, good rate for exchange. I just want to comment about noise level at the rooms, you can hear everything even the elevator engine and the shower of the others, I remembered a travel in a military submarine. The other fact is the expensive internet... More

The Asturias is one of ten Windsor hotels in Rio, including three in centro, six in Copacabana, and one in Barra da Tijuca. This moderately priced hotel is in Cinelandia. It is very close to a Metro station, only one block from the financial heart of Rio in Avenida Rio Branco and but a short walk or cab ride from... More

Great value too: only €108 per night, including... More

However, being in Centro almost everything shuts down at end of business day so options for outside food and drink are limited. Breakfast buffet is of good value, but lunch and dinner prices are a bit steep given location, atmosphere and quality.... More

I recently stayed in this hotel this past weekend and I was pleased with everything. The neighborhood is not much to look at but it is close to other pretty areas. The subway is only 5 minutes away and it is on the mainline to all of the popular areas. If you don’t want to pay the high hotel prices... More
