Wander the cobblestone streets of the artistic neighbourhood of Santa Teresa.
The area is full of colonial mansions, artists’ workshops and charming little boutiques. Visit museums and art ateliers, take part in cultural activities or soak up the bohemian atmosphere from one of the area’s many bustling cafes.
Catch the last historic tram of Rio to explore the cities centre or head up to the Christ the Redeemer Statue. If the sun is shining, take the tram to Copacabana or Ipanema beach for an afternoon in the sun.
After a day exploring the city, return to the hotel for a moment of rest. Pamper yourself with a treatment at the spa or sip on a cocktail by the pool as you watch the sun go down over Rio.
Enjoy an intimate dinner at the hotel’s restaurant, Térèze, then head to Lapa for an evening of samba.
