Sant'Martre
A Rio rooftop terrace with a hot tub and city views
About this hotel
The Sant'Martre hotel offers a rooftop terrace where guests can unwind in a hot tub while taking in the expansive views of Rio de Janeiro. From this elevated vantage point, the city unfolds, providing a dynamic backdrop for relaxation. As the golden hour approaches, the terrace becomes an ideal spot for couples or small groups to gather, perhaps with a drink, watching the urban landscape transform under the changing light. The ambiance shifts from a sun-drenched retreat to a vibrant evening setting as the city lights begin to twinkle below. The hot tub adds a unique dimension to the experience, allowing for a refreshing dip with a truly memorable outlook. This rooftop space is designed for those who appreciate a moment of calm above the city's rhythm, making the most of Rio's captivating scenery.

Our take
This rooftop is ideal for travelers seeking a relaxed atmosphere with a distinct view of Rio, particularly those who appreciate a hot tub experience at height. It suits couples looking for a quiet sunset moment or small groups wanting a casual gathering spot. Those expecting a full-service rooftop bar with extensive dining options might find it more limited, as its primary draw is the terrace and hot tub.
- ✓Head up to the rooftop in the late afternoon to catch the golden hour light over the city from the hot tub.
- ✓Consider a visit during the cooler months for a comfortable experience on the open-air terrace.
- ✓Take advantage of the terrace for a quiet moment before heading out to explore Largo do Guimarães nearby.

Why guests love itHoneymooners spending their last nights in Rio at Sant'Martre made the rooftop hot tub their evening ritual. After walking to Escadaria Selarón and around the neighborhood, they climbed up as the light went golden and sat in the warm water with the panoramic views spreading out in front of them, staying until the city was fully lit. The airport shuttle made departure day painless. Anyone expecting a full rooftop bar and menu will find the offer limited.
