You simply cannot find a more attractive little boutique hotel (pousada) than Solar do Arco. Super stylish, quaint, Portuguese-inspired architecture. Wonderful staff, very good breakfast and parking just next door. Dining options abound. The room was well appointed and the A/C was quiet and appeared to be brand new. I'm going back!

We loved our stay at Hotel Solar do Arco and Cabo Frio as a wider area. We really enjoyed the facilities - lounging by the pool and reading in the main terrace was a particular highlight for me. We had a great breakfast each morning, and the staff were incredibly friendly and approachable. We would love to come back here again and would recommend the hotel to our friends!

Beautiful and good location
We moved to Solar from one of the Recanto properties as Solar had availability so we can compare the two. The Premium Recanto had a great pool area and excellent breakfast. Solar breakfast was ok. Both hotels downstairs smelled very moldy and Solar seemed to make us feel bad. We moved to the 2nd floor at Solar the final night and that was better. I prefer the Recanto if there is availability. Solar is a beautiful hotel also.

Worth the Cost
Especially compared to other “hotels” in Brazil, this hotel is relatively pricey—but it is definitely worth the cost. I say hotel in quotes, because this place feels more like a mini resort than a hotel. The best aspect of this hotel is the staff. Incredibly attentive and polite. They anticipate needs surprisingly well. For example, it started to rain lightly one afternoon, and we returned to our room to find an umbrella hanging on the door. The hotel is within an attractive walled enclosure, which is welcome in Brazil. You feel safe, comfortable, and free to lounge around the pool relaxed and safe. The decor is bright, attractive, and tasteful. The rooms are quite small, which is the only reason I gave the room comfort a 4 instead of 5. That said, the rooms are quite clean, well appointed, and upscale, with very comfortable beds. The food choice for dinner and lunch is limited, but the quality was excellent—and I had the best Caipirinha of our entire trip (which included the Hilton on Copa)!

A very Beautiful hotel.
I travel a lot for work all over the world, stay at a lot of hotels and have never written a review, but this time I have to write a review as this is my favourite hotel thus far. It’s very beautiful, relaxing and the staff are so friendly. I was only planning to stay one night, but ended spending three nights as I liked it so much. I am definitely coming back.

Hotel maravilhoso. A única coisa que me incomodou um pouco foi a iluminação do quarto, pois gosto de ambientes bem claros. A iluminação é mais intimista. Tirando isso, a estadia foi perfeita!
