There are several Luxor hotels in Rio, but we like the Regente best. From the street, the hotel looks dark and uninviting because they’ve used dark glass on the façade. Built in the 1960s, the hotel was badly worn by the time the major renovation undertaken by Luxor came. It’s easy to spot the newly designed lobby and modern furniture in the other public areas, but friends tell us that new elevators were installed and new equipment was added to the small gym. There are 228 rooms and seven suites (five are Executive with extras for business travelers) and all have been remodeled and refurbished. All the rooms are spacious; most have showers rather than bathtubs. The suites and some deluxe rooms have tubs and ocean views as well. All rooms have data ports, mini-bars, refrigerators, safes and hair dryers. As a result of the renovation, three floors of the hotel have been designated as non-smoking. These rooms and foyers have tile floors rather than carpeting. The pool is on the roof, along with a snack bar. The health club has new workout machines and a sauna. The hotel provides beach service for guests who prefer to sun on the sand. The Forno e Fogão restaurant serves breakfast (included in rate) and international dishes for lunch and dinner, but is best known for its feijoada. There is a casual lobby bar as well.
