Grande Hotel Petrópolis

Pros: Clean, modern hotel in a historic building. Updated facilities. But most importantly, WONDERFUL staff! So friendly and helpful. Spoke English. Valet parked our car, stored our bags, and gave us a ...

Cons: Waiting for the valet service to retrieve the car took a little while -- almost 30 minutes. But I get the sense that this is not typical -- just a miscommunication.

Pros: Mostly everything offered

Cons: No coffee/tea in rooms

Pros: Helpful staff, though some of them were not great on tourist info, e,g, restaurant info. No foreigners at all as guests, only Brazilians

Cons: Our first room 213 was very cramped and next door to the noisy Fitness Centre. Go for a suite or a better class of room, e.g. 414.

Pros: Great European style and American style with large variety, and of course the Brazilian coffee

Cons: Street noise, but I closed the window

Pros: Location

Cons: Parking quite far which means a delay in retrieving the vehicle by the staff
