My state was excellent and it's a convenient Hotel. The only thing is that I am not a fan of the double twin bed that they put together with a matte on top. Is good for a while but sooner or later one side will wear out before the other. Outside of that everything else was excellent.

The photos of the foyer and room were better than reality. The room was also on the small side. It looked bigger in photos. The lift was very old and slow. However I was comfortable staying at this hotel. It was quiet and safe and convenient. Walkable to many food options and the beach was a good walk away across many lanes of traffic. Breakfast was good. No real issues and I would consider coming here again.

I really enjoyed my stay here. The rooms were very nice and I had the room with the jacuzzi which worked very well and it was very spacious but not so big that you thought you were in a swimming pool. The Wi-Fi worked very well. Some of the stuff is a little dated like the TV but it is a very cozy space. Everything worked well in the room to include the TV and it was surprisingly quiet. There are many restaurants close by as well. It's in a very good spot.

I stayed in their sweet with the jet tub which was very nice and the staff in general was very nice. The breakfast was okay but the only issue was the weakness of the Wi-Fi in the room. I had a lot of problems with getting a signal and was a having very difficult time trying to make plans and organize because of the inconsistency of the Wi-Fi. If they strengthen the Wi-Fi, this hotel would be outstanding.

My room was spacious and spotlessly clean. Breakfast is excellent. The staff are efficient and attentive. The Hotel is quiet because it is on a small street but it is in a great position, minutes walk from two metro stations and Flamengo beach. It is only two metro stops to Copacabana beach and the central city.The local area is vibrant with many eateries, and I felt safe at all times.I think Mengo Palace is great value and I was very pleased with my choice for staying in Rio.

I am not a fan of the double twin beds with the padded cover to make a larger King bed but outside of that everything else was excellent. Keep in mind that the gym is off site a short distance across the street that's about a 1 minute walk. This means you have access to a much better variety for exercise.
