Business in Barra? You can’t go wrong with the Hilton!

Rio de Janeiro is a beautiful place to visit, and whether you are looking to book a business trip or holiday, finding the right accommodation is key to a comfortable stay. The 298 room Hilton Barra Rio de Janeiro is located in the business district of Barra da Tijuca and is the ideal choice for business travellers. It is a modern business hotel with a range of guest rooms, five meeting rooms, two ballrooms and a 24-hour business centre. It also boasts a fitness room, pool and a restaurant that serves locally sourced, seasonal dishes.

The hotel offers a choice of room types: standard guest rooms, suites with up to 100m2  floor space and executive rooms located on the top floor and with access to a private executive lounge. All have the usual amenities and all Executive Rooms and Suites come with access to the executive lounge with complimentary breakfast, evening hors d’oeuvre and drinks and free Wi-Fi. There are also some accessible rooms and support animals are welcome. With a range of meeting rooms the hotel can host a variety of events from private parties to large business meetings.

The rooftop pool and bar offers awe inspiring lake and mountain views across the city whilst if action is more your thing, the fitness centre is open 24 hours and has a selection of up-to-date Precor exercise equipment for working out after a heavy day of meetings.

The hotel is located near the Olympic park and is near a variety of nightclubs, bars, restaurants and shopping malls.

Travel buyers looking to organise extras for guests can also book a private check-in and checkout for the ultimate in privacy. When it comes to exploring you can take a cable car 396m up to the top of Pao de Acucar with its views over the city, Corcovado Mountain, Cristo Redentor and the winding coastline.  Thrill seekers, sunbathers and tourists alike can go to the famous Copacabana beach for water sports and party atmosphere.
