8.8/10 Excellent! (72 reviews)
Les Jardins is a charming place with beautiful gardens and quiet despite being in Rio! However, it is isolated in streets that are not safe at night; all travel to and from has to be done by Uber.I Only breakfast is provided; all other food has to be ordered online and delivered, although the staff are willing to do the ordering. Breakfast is also served very late - not till 9am. And the room was not cleaned during my stay - apparently I had to ask for this. It was billed as a 4 star hotel but I would say it id more of a stylish pension/b&b. I was the only person staying there.
