Hotel Dan Inn Mar Piedade - Grande Recife

“Good atmosphere”

It looks like it's been in business for a while, not exactly fancy, very basic. But it's clean, buffet breakfast, lunch and dinner are very generous and delicious. It has a heated pool and gym center also.

The location of the hotel is right on a clean sandy beach. 1. The wifi was poor to fair. 2. The hotel seems to cater for mainly Brazilian guests, and therefore none of the staff spoke English or Spanish. This proved to be problematic,, particularly for an elderly lady from Argentina, who only spoke Spanish. She suffered a fall, dislocating her shoulder and cutting her knee. The hotel staff were unable to deal with the situation in a responsive way. The fact that the hotel did not have a first aid kit, to dress and clean her cut was disgraceful. Only the hotel manager could authorize the purchase of products to clean and dress the cut. Fortunately, one of my party was able to communicate in Portuguese and Spanish, and was able to assist the lady obtaining her medical insurance and accompanying her to hospital. 3. Breakfast was average, and the lack of a toaster was not good. Additionally, this is the first Brazilian hotel I have stayed in, where there was no member of the catering staff, producing one of the staple breakfast products - Tapioca. 4. A guest that had ordered room service, left the serving tray and partially eaten food outside their room and next to the lift. The tray remained there overnight and was still there at mid-day.

“Basic hotel on the beach”

I stayed here during World Cup, when it rained every day, so take my review with a grain of salt. The hotel itself was a regular hotel. It was clean, had a pool, and was on the beach. Unfortunately, I was never on the beach. The hotel staff were great. Very friendly and always willing to help.… more

I stayed here during World Cup, when it rained every day, so take my review with a grain of salt. The hotel itself was a regular hotel. It was clean, had a pool, and was on the beach. Unfortunately, I was never on the beach. The hotel staff were great. Very friendly and always willing to help. If you don't speak Portuguese, don't worry, because the staff were proficient in English. The included breakfast was good. The only negative thing I have to say about the hotel is that it was far away from the restaurants, bars, and nightlife.
