Beautifully designed. Big rooms. There’s nothing much around the area so you will have to Uber yourself out every time.

Property is Lakeside instead of in the Brasilia Hotel Zone.
Service was excellent. Beautiful breakfast buffet. Room is fine and in general clean. The bed and pillows were comfortable. Two issues that make it unlikely I will stay again. I felt like I needed to wear shower shoes because of the mold in the grout. And there are no convenient outlets for plugging in computer and phone.

I love this hotel - its history, its minimalism, the immense trees. It's time for some renovations though. The carpet is horrrible, the shower difficult to regulate (hot-cold). For the rest: friendly staff, quiet environment. Recommend it.

Brasilia Charm
Certainly a Brasilia experience. It is a gem. Located near the President's Palace the hotel is in a quiet area of the city on the lake. We have stayed at this hotel 3 times now (2018, 2021, 2023) and would recommend. Staff are very friendly, almost all speak Portuguese and English. The hotel is so relaxing, the breakfast is likely the best in Brazil and the pool is lovely to sit back and relax. The hotel is convenient to get anywhere in Brasilia within 10 - 20 minutes. The bathrooms in the rooms are the only disappointment in the hotel, they don't necessarily need to be renovated but the showers need new calking and replace the shower heads.

Good historic hotel. Designed by Oscar Nimeyer. The first one in Brasilia. Architecture and details from 1960s. Renovated about 10 years ago. Good and comfortable stay. Bear in mind there is almost nothing in the area. No convenience stores, no small businesses, the area is generally not walkable. There are presidential palace, art museum, 5 star hotel and a condominium nearby. Good hotel for one night stay to get the sense of architectural history. Staff members are good. Good price/quality/history ratio. Thanks.

Architectural gem
So awesome to stay in this architectural gem! Loved the furniture and the details. Gym was not great--elliptical was broken, no TV remote, weights were not set up, and no water. Room was fine. The room service people were very friendly and nice. Front desk was helpful and breakfast was very good. I would recommend this place.

Step back in time to 1960s Brasília
Delightful retro 1960s style hotel, beautifully renovated and very characterful. The very first hotel to be built in Brasília, according to the plans of the celebrated modernist architect Oscar Niemeyer. The only inconveniences are the location (it is quite far from the central Eixo Monumental), and the fact that the restaurant is closed on Sundays: there is no bar either, so nowhere to get a bite to eat on the premises.

Modernist charm
The hotel, a project by the renowned Brazilian modernist architect Niemeyer, has a lot of charm and elegance. The grounds are very beautiful and spacious, allowing beautiful views of the famous Brasilia´s sky.
I was treated with courtesy and felt very safe about cleanliness and COVID protocols. Very happy to see the receptionist waring a N95 mask at checkin.
The breakfast is in a open place, with is the safer option as well.

The Brasilia Palace Hotel is a monument to the construction of Brasilia and the incredible work by the "candangos" who came here from all over Brasil. The hotel has been fully renovated. The facilities are comfortable but not luxurious, which fits well with its historical theme.
The restaurant Oscar is excellent and certainly a hidden jewel. Don't miss having dinner while listening to live music.
The staff is courteous and always ready to help.
