An oasis in the bustling city
An oasis in the bustling city. Calm and comfortable, fantastic breakfast. Pool and gardens were a treat to relax in. The decoration in the room could do with a good touch up

This was one of the most exquisite properties I’ve ever stayed on and loved the entire experience. The owners and staff are all incredibly attentive and helpful, and the view from breakfast and the infinity pool alone are enough to make me come back. With only 4 rooms available on the whole property, it was an exclusive experience that often felt like a completely private booking. Thank you so much! Can’t wait to be back.

Oasis in Santa Tereza
Great location close to Centro and Santa Tereza neighbourhoods. They will help you with taxis around town but definitely spend a night or two in the neighbourhood for a different vibe. Really clean and peaceful. Amazing breakfast.

Casa Geranio is a unique and lovely property, nestled on a hillside in central Rio. The space is a lush oasis of greenery and traditional architecture that makes for a luxurious resting spot after a day of touring the busy city. Our room was ample, comfortable, and quiet. Breakfast was exquisite and the service was warm, friendly, and very helpful. Thank you all for everything! I would definitely recommend this hotel for anybody looking to stay in downtown Rio and would surely consider it again if I get the chance to return. I think it's worth mentioning that the walk up hill and the hotel stairs may not be ideal for people with limited mobility.

Wonderful stay!
The room and property were amazing! The breakfast was incredible! They really catered to us to make our overall experience wonderful even when we stayed longer at the hotel waiting for our evening flight. The WiFi didn’t work great. Some Ubers didn’t want to drive us to the hotel or pick us up because of the unsafe neighborhood but once we were at the property, we really enjoyed our stay! Highly recommend!

The hotel is set in a beautiful location overlooking the city with amazing gardens - very peaceful and relaxing. The owners could not have been more welcoming from the moment I arrived, providing a delicious breakfast each morning and tips about where to visit / drink / eat. I could not recommend this place enough.

ultra pampered, sweet vibe!
Wonderful visit. Dynamite service, super relaxing. Casual, yet pampering. The breakfasts are fantastic. Could not have had a better stay. Super location for Lapa and Samba action. Claudio is truly a class act, energetic and informative, while polished and chill. Felt like great value for level of service and amenities, and location.

5 Stars!
Casa Geranio is an oasis tucked away in the hills of Santa Teresa! I loved the design aesthetics - a stone accent wall in the bathroom and marble shower in the bathroom, gorgeous seating area with a partition between the bed and nice linens. The owner is very friendly and gave me a great restaurant recommendation - he obviously loves what he does! The room was air conditioned, which is nice with the heat/humidity of Rio in the summer. Infinity pool has plenty of lounge chairs with great views of the downtown skyline. The breakfast in the morning is amazing! You will love your stay here!

LOVE THIS PLACE!!
Casa Geranio was amazing. The owners and hosts Claudio and Gabriel were awesome and instantly made us feel at home. Here are some highlights: The location - Santa Teresa was such a cool part of the city. High up on the hill overlooking the city, cobblestone roads and old stately homes. Great little bars and restaurants. The streets are well-lit at night and it is in easy walking distance to Lapa which has all the night-life. I didn't find getting around town from Santa Teresa was any more difficult that from anywhere else. The city is huge and spread out so unless you're hanging around right in the neighborhood you're staying in, you're likely to have a bit of a trek to get other places. I loved the character of Santa Teresa; you got a good feel for the historical Rio. Not touristy at all. Breakfast - OMG, Claudio is a chef and his breakfast which was made fresh every day, right down to the freshly squeezed juices, was AMAZING! The food presentation was pure art and there were beautiful fruits, pastries, local cheese all served on lovely dishes. They set tables out for each couple or guest, not family style as is done sometimes at Bed and Breakfasts. It was romantic and peaceful. Rooms - We stayed in Suite Carioca. I would highly recommend this if you are on a romantic getaway or want a peaceful space. We had our own pool and gated patio and city views. Very quiet space to enjoy wine in the evening while listening to the bustle of Lapa below.

8/10 Very Good

Pleasant stay, but attitude could be better.
We had a pleasant stay at Casa Geranio. The property is quite beautiful and newly renovated. However, the price is probably a bit too steep for the prestations. The breakfast, although of good quantity, is served at the table, so you do not get to choose what you want. We also did not enjoy being constantly told how amazing the place is (by the owners) and having to sign a declaration that we would pay for the towels in case we stained them with sunscreen (!). All in all we did not feel like so much as valued guests for which the owners would have gone out of their way for.
