Porto Bay Rio is such a beautiful hotel. We booked the panoramic window room and the view is hard to beat. From the sunrises to the sunsets, and even the twinkling lights at night, the view was incredible. We could even see the Christ the redeemer statue from the hotel. The staff were very kind and accommodating. The hotel is also very clean. It’s in a great location with so many places to eat or things to do. It’s right across the street from the beach, which was definitely a plus! They also have an extremely wide variety of food and drinks every day for breakfast. Literally so much to choose from! We’ll be back here for sure!
