GRAND HYATT RIO DE JANEIRO
Situated in the heart of Barra da Tijuca, the Grand Hyatt Rio de Janeiro lies between the ocean, lake and the mountains and stands opposite the Reserva Beach. This minimal, open-planned and contemporary hotel works to reference Brazilian history and culture whilst remaining cutting edge.
Open living spaces and ‘living’ walls of plants and tropical foliage bring the outside in and create a visual relationship with the amazing external surroundings. The airy and spacious rooms offer views across the Lagoa to the beautiful hills or of the ocean just across from the hotel. Spacious bedrooms with complimentary locally produced Granado toiletries ensure you have a relaxing stay.
The vast pool complex surrounded by greenery provides a great escape from the hustle and bustle of Rio. For those feeling more adventurous, lessons in beach sports, from surfing to volleyball, can be booked with the hotel and staff also provide towels, umbrellas and water for those who would rather be carefree beach spectators. There is also a children’s club which offers indoor and outdoor entertainment and activities. Three restaurants ensure a wide variety of cuisines are catered for. Italian, Brazilian and Pan Asian cuisine all feature on the diverse menus. For those wishing to experience some local music, the bar is transformed into a melting pot of Brazilian funk and soul at the weekends.
