YOO2 Rio de Janeiro

Great hotel, all around fantastic experience. Had the pleasure of staying a few nights, on our last night we had some rooftop drinks. Felipe was our host and couldn’t ask for a better service, vibe, and overall experience. Thank you to Felipe and the entire staff for the hospitality.

Great service in the bar from Felipe, very attentive and accommodating and made come cracking cocktails with a view of Christ the Redeemer! Beds were comfy and breakfast was really nice with a good selection of choices. Location was right on the beach

The view is outstanding and if you can get to the rooftop you can have a drink or have dinner or both.,There’s a lovely pool on top as well. My room has an incredible view of Botafogo beach and I can see Sugar Loaf and Christ the Redeemer from the rooftop. The restaurant serves chef specials, great drinks and a wide selection of seafood, pasta and steak as well as vegetarian. The staff are friendly especially Felipe. He always made sure things were all right and went out of his way to make me feel welcome as I was solo. Highly recommended the hotel and restaurant.

This hotel is simply amazing. From its location to the hotel itself and the staff, it is simply perfect. The location in Botafogo is great, away from Copacabana and Ipanema but close enough to get there via Uber and also very close to other attractions like the Pao de Açucar or the center of Rio. We were checked in by Larissa, who was great and after mentioning that we were Hilton Honors Gold Members gave us a stunning room overlooking the Pao de Açucar. Breathtaking views! Not only her but everyone else we came across in the hotel were simply amazing. The highlight of the hotel it’s its’ rooftop bar, with probably some of the best views of Rio. The food served there is really good too, as well as the staff. Again, on check out, Larissa was super nice to us and gave us a late check out, which allowed us to enjoy the hotel to the last minute before leaving Rio. Thank you so much and we hope to be back soon!

I truly believe that the staff at hotels make it. Not the room, location, food.. the staff! Larissa I believe her name was, set the tone for my trip in Brazil. I have stayed at this hotel before and returned due to the phenomenal hospitality. The moment I arrived, she greeted me and my husband with a friendly smile, we spoke in a mixture of Spanish, Portuguese and English - an incredible skill to have. Every time we entered the lobby she met us with a big smile. She kindly upgraded our room and needles to say it was beautiful! The granado in the room was a lovely touch and I actually purchased it in the stores! Honourable mention to Diego at the bar, me remembered me and my husband from our last visit and he was great! I plan to return to Brazil later this year and I will definitely return to this hotel for the third time.
