Gran Meliá Now In Brazil
Meliá Hotels International will open its first luxury hotel from the Gran Meliá brand in Brazil with the official opening of Gran Meliá Nacional Rio in March.
Located in Rio de Janeiro’s most exclusive area, São Conrado, Gran Meliá Nacional Rio is a member of the prestigious “Leading Hotels of the World” club.
Originally built in 1972, the famous Hotel Nacional has reopened after more than a decade of being left abandoned, as the Gran Meliá brand’s flagship property. Following extensive renovations, the property has been restored to its former glory, maintaining the hotel’s original features, with the modern Spanish flare of the Gran Meliá brand.
Recognized as a national heritage site, Gran Meliá Nacional Rio houses some of Brazil’s most treasured modern art.
The hotel boasts 413 rooms, including two presidential suites and 200 executive suites. The circular design and glass façade of the property means that guests can enjoy panoramic floor to ceiling views of Rio de Janeiro from both their room or suite and communal areas.
Gran Meliá Nacional Rio will feature the exclusive RedLevel service, offering the ultimate luxury experience from the Gran Meliá brand. It provides access to exclusive spaces allowing guests to enjoy a privileged sense of privacy and tranquility, as well as a more personalized service. The RedLevel Lounge has a private reception area, lounge-library with TV and music, private breakfast area and an open bar with premium drinks. RedLevel will be fully operating as of April.
Other amenities include two restaurants, three contemporary bars, including the Roof Top Bar, and the only Spa by Clarins in Latin America.
