Mercure Rio de Janeiro Botafogo Mourisco Hotel 4 estrelas

Breakfast was a bit simple comparing to Ibis hotels. Fitness room simple but good. Sauna was closed and nothing explaining. I asked if I could arrive earlier and used the pool and they took one day to answer. There was a problem with the hall/ corridor lights, but they fixed.

Very spacious room with everything you need. Décor is simple and tasteful. The rooms facing the front have balconies with amazing views of the statue of Christ. Ask for floors 6 and higher for the best views. Staff are always polite and friendly and there is always someone on duty who speaks English. Location is good. Botofogo has many good shops and restaurants and bars, all within a few minutes of the hotel. Botofogo metro station is five minutes walk to reach Copacabana or Ipanema, or alternatively the bus stop is only two minutes walk and buses pass every few minutes.

Stayed 5 nights. Overall Hotel is Good. It is not in Copacabana but, in a Local neighborhood without lots of tourist. I like this aspect. I felt safe for the most part. Lots of options for eating, transportation (near Metro). Taxis are always outside. I took Uber everywhere(cheaper). Shopping Mall nearby. Rooms are spacious but, the chairs are Horrible. They are soiled and are very nasty. The flooring in the room needs repairing. Friendly Staff very limited English speaking.Restaurant is NOT good and not worth the price. Breakfast leaves a lot to be desired. Only 2 Elevators. Elevators are rather slow and are out of service at least once during my stay.

The superior room is very good and has a excellent space, it's recommended for a family of 4 persons. The crew of the hotel is very dedicated, the localization, the building and the view are perfect. It's the right place in Rio.

Our stay was in three location Rio, Buzios (To attend a wedding) Niteroi. Rio and Niteroi were both Mercure Hotel. We would recommend both, the later being the oldest and needs a little TLC in a few place. however the friendliness of the staff over come any problems, The food was out of this world both in taste and presentation,

As a business traveller, I have stayed at this hotel several times over the past 8 years and like its location away from all the expensive and hectic touristic attractions. Good breakfast buffet with a nice view to the Corcovado hill, very friendly staff and acceptable rates. I therefore recommend the Mercure Mourisco to folks visiting Rio.

I've gotten late at the reception (around 10pm) and every thing was ok. Hv gotten into the room and decided to eat. It would be a 20-25 min waiting. Got no towells and, besides I had to wait for 1 hour, food was awfull. Very small portions and steak was completely toasted (I had order "medium rare). At the end, I've complanied about the stay and the manager excluded the food and mini bar for a "compensation".

Having stayed at the Mercure Botafogo Mourisco many times, this one I was a little disappointed, breakfast not as good as in previous stays, furniture in the room I stayed a bit worn out, slow elevator service, however the attention and courtesy of the staff, coupled with the convenient locations right by the Metro Station in Botafogo, helped overcome these issues.

The hotel is pretty nice and the breakfast is good. The best thing of this hotel is the location: Botafogo. It's a cool neighborhood (more of cariocas than for tourists), near all the nice places (beaches, tourism, malls, local restaurants etc.).

Excellent staff and services, nice room and food. Mercure Rio de Janeiro Mourisco is perfect for those who want a hotel for business or leisure. The room cound be a little bit brighter. I suggest more one light spot.

I liked very much the spacious apartment. The staff is carefull and kind. The hotel is near the metro station "Botafogo", the Sugar Loaf and the Corcovado. It's close to Botafogo Praia Shopping, where you find good restaurants and cafes (like Tiramisu and Cafe Sorelle). Excellent breakfast too!

The room was clean and was spacious, breakfast excellent, staff courteous and professional. My only remark was the very loooooong check-in for all of my family members, considering that I was paying for everyone with my credit card.

Excellent location, access to walk to the beach, shopping malls and free restaurantes.Vista to Corcovado, one of the postcards of the city. I missed a sauna to make the stay even more relaxing. Just sun by the pool in the morning. Breakfast could have more varieties the price charged. Parking is free but not always available when you arrive is vague and the car needs to stay on the street for some time.

I have stayed at this Hotel at least 2 other times in the past 6 months and must say that I was a little disappointed this time in comparison to the previous stays, maybe because it was over a weekend instead of working days, Very courteous staff at reception, they upgraded us to a bigger suite, parking is free what is not usual in other Accor Hotels in Rio, and taking advantage of a very low weekend rate the overall value was outstanding.

The old stained carpet on the hallways make for a very bad first impression. And the dark corridors due to the lights only being turned on by presence sensors add up to that first impression. The elevator, more than looking old, looks poorly mantained with lots of grease stains or fingertips all over its walls. Although you can notice the room in general looks a little outdated, my only critique is that it could use a better housekeeping, the beds looked as if someone had already been sleeping on them, even at the day of my arrival, and the balcony was simply dirty. If you plan on staying at this hotel for the subway station ease of access, I would advise staying at the Ibis hotel at walking distance.
