“A completely different review, a good accommodation!”
I was worried because there were many bad reviews on Google and apps, but it seems that people felt uncomfortable due to a lack of information. If you go towards Gate D, there is a free shuttle bus that runs 24 hours. When you arrive and go up to the third floor, the hotel is right in front of you. 1. Overall, all the staff are very friendly, and while it is rare to find staff who can speak English, you can easily communicate using translation apps. 2. There are no windows for security reasons, but it wasn't hot at all, so there was no need to turn on the air conditioning. 3. The room seems to be cleaned thoroughly, and they spray a deodorizer after cleaning (instead of ventilation). The room is spacious and clean. 4. You can have breakfast or dinner, and the prices are cheap with a variety of options. For dinner, you need to go before 7 PM to choose from the menu; after that, only a buffet is available. 5. Laundry services are available and easy to use. Although it's an older hotel, it has all the amenities expected of a four-star hotel. Individual experiences may vary, but I was very satisfied.

“A clean hotel located inside the airport.”
This hotel is located inside Terminal 1 of Galeão Airport, but Terminal 1 is currently hardly used. You can get there by shuttle from Terminal 2 or walk for about 10 minutes. Being a 4-star hotel, the interior is nice and the air conditioning is comfortable. The hotel staff is very friendly. The breakfast is plentiful and satisfying, with items like ham, sausage, a variety of breads, and desserts. Furthermore, I forgot my smartphone in the room when checking out, and I was quite panicked after 30 minutes. When I asked at the front desk, they smiled and returned it to me from the safe. Given the high crime rate in Brazil, I had resigned myself to losing it, but seeing my relieved expression made everyone burst into laughter. The staff is the best.

“A clean hotel located inside the airport.”
This hotel is located inside Terminal 1 of Galeão Airport, but Terminal 1 is currently hardly used. You can either take a shuttle from Terminal 2 or walk for about 10 minutes. It's a 4-star hotel, so the interior is nice, and the air conditioning is comfortable. The hotel staff is very friendly. Breakfast was satisfying with a wide variety, including ham, sausages, various types of bread, and desserts. Additionally, I checked out forgetting my smartphone in the room, and after realizing it 30 minutes later, I hurried to the front desk feeling anxious. They greeted me with smiles and returned it from the safe. Since Brazil has a high crime rate, I had given up hope, but seeing my relieved expression made everyone burst out laughing. The staff is the best!

“It is close to the airport, but access is difficult.”
It's close to the airport, but since it's located in an unused terminal, access is a bit difficult. It is mentioned on the hotel's website, but when I told a staff member at the information desk near Gate D on Floor 0 of Terminal 2 that I wanted to go to the hotel, they contacted the shuttle bus for me, and I was able to take the shuttle bus. Additionally, it was also possible to walk there.

“Good Choice for Early Departures”
Rio rush hour traffic is a nightmare, so avoiding the taxi or shuttle ride in the morning is best avoided by staying at the airport. The staff has always been great and very helpful. This location is the best choice if you have an early departure from GIG and need a room nearby. It is located in Terminal 1, so you will need to walk about 10 minutes to Terminal 2 or take the hotel van service. They offer a nice breakfast buffet and the restaurant offers lunch and dinner if you don't want to head over to Terminal 2 for their restaurants and food court. If arriving by Uber or 99, they will most likely try to drop you at Terminal 2. where you will need to wait for the hotel van or walk to Terminal 1. If you ask that Uber or 99 drop you at Terminal 1 on level 1, (not 0 or 2) it will speed up your arrival. Enter and turn right going pass the passport offices and take the elevator to level 3 for the hotel.

What a surprise! The photos don't do it justice at all! The restaurant was so lovely, and the bathrooms especially looked brand new. Every staff member - especially in the restaurant - were just lovely. It was such a surprise to have such a great hotel right at the airport! What a relief when my flight was cancelled!
