TotallyOz Posted May 1, 2021 Posted May 1, 2021 This is one of my favorite hotels. I have stayed there dozens of times and never had a problem bringing someone to my room. However, I do book for 2 and do not mind registering someone if needed. The rooms are small but the staff is excellent. https://www.gayguides.com/listing/jw-marriott-hotel/ KeepItReal 1 Quote

Grovin49 Posted September 19, 2021 Posted September 19, 2021 Interesting to hear this because someone, during a brief conversation, said it was a dump. Is it not? Quote
TotallyOz Posted September 19, 2021 Author Posted September 19, 2021 I never found it a dump. I found the rooms small if you have a basic room. But, the service was good, the food was good, and the convenience was excellent. I used to stay at the Intercontinental but that has closed and that only leaves me a few choices in Rio for points and miles. The JW is one of them. Grovin49 1 Quote
Members tassojunior Posted September 19, 2021 Members Posted September 19, 2021 I stayed there almost two weeks and it is super nice. Great location between Copacabana and Ipanema on the beach with nice restaurants nearby. The lounge has breakfast lunch and dinner free in a very nice setting with a view. 4 1/2 star.

Is it not? It's been some years since I stayed there but it certainly was not a dump. As TotallyOz said, the rooms are on the small side. Service and food are excellent. I love it's location.
