Hostel Pontal Do Duque Rio de Janeiro

Review by hotel critic

During my recent gourmet getaway at Pontal Do Duque, I was struck by the culinary innovation on display at the hotel restaurant. Each meal was a good journey, showcasing fresh, local ingredients alongside techniques that reflected both traditional and modern influences. The ambiance was thoughtfully designed, creating a space where comfort and taste harmoniously blended. I often reminisce about the breakfast spread; it reminded me of the vibrant morning gatherings back in Nairobi, where fresh produce and rich flavors reign supreme. Following breakfast, a visit to the bar added a nice touch to my evenings, serving a selection of intriguing cocktails, reminiscent of nights spent under the stars while on safari. Beyond the hotel's offerings, I explored nearby eateries such as Dom Das Massas and Choperia Beiruty, which further enriched my culinary experience. For travelers seeking a taste of local flavor blended with innovative dining, Pontal Do Duque is a destination worth considering.
