Hotel Aconchego

Location really is key here. The hotel is close to the beach and to the airport and has really competitive prices. However, the place could really use some renewals, which makes choosing a room there a real hit-or-miss. We were meant to stay at a bigger room that included access to a balcony. The problem was that the room smelled bad and was kind of depressing, so we asked to change. The new one was in a difference price range (it was a standard room, with no balcony), but we had no discount. It was marginally better than the other, but we decided to stay. The staff was friendly and the pool and the bar are really cool, but the overall experience was really not the best.

All rooms are not created equal at the Hotel Aconchego. The bed and bathroom in the standard room are a disappointment. Although the room was very clean, it was shabby and depressing. Do not book a standard room! Otherwise this is a very pleasant hotel with a nice pool and bar - very close to the beach. Very accommodating staff. Decent breakfast included for all guests. Very happy we were able to switch to a better room.

Aconchego Hotel is located in a very pleasant area of Recife. It is in a short distance from the city airport and very close to the most famous local beach. The hotel however, needs some renewal. The hotel room I've been was quiet and small. Despite the fact that it had a window, no natural light or ventilation could reach the space. WIFI worked just fine.
