Top Fortaleza Hotel Reviews

ibis Budget Fortaleza Praia De Iracema

8/10 Good

"Un típico Ibis Budget, las camas demasiado pequeñas de 80cm no muy cómoda para un adulto! Está a unos 400 metros del mar y de la zona de paseo, ingrese y había un extractor del techo baño caído, reclamé en recepción pero nunca fueron a fijarlo"

Praiano Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"My experience at Praiano Hotel was absolutely wonderful from beginning to end. The location is fantastic, right in front of the beautiful Beira-Mar, with that incredible Fortaleza energy the moment you step outside. What truly made the difference, though, was the hospitality. The staff were welcoming, attentive, kind, and always ready to help with a smile. That genuine warmth is what transforms a good hotel stay into a memorable experience. The hotel is comfortable, beautifully maintained, and perfectly located for enjoying everything Fortaleza has to offer. Waking up near the ocean, enjoying the atmosphere of Beira-Mar, and being treated with such care made my stay even more special. I left Fortaleza already missing Ceará, and Praiano Hotel will definitely be part of my memories from this trip. To the entire team: thank you for your hospitality and for making me feel so welcome. When I return to Fortaleza, and I definitely will, I would be very happy to stay here again. Highly recommended! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Fortaleza is already special, and staying at Praiano made it even better."

Blue Tree Towers Fortaleza Beira Mar

10/10 Excellent

"The breakfast offered a wide variety of options and was delicious. The room was clean and organized, and the bed linens and towels were in good condition. The only issue is that the rooms do not have microwaves. To warm up our baby’s milk, we had to go to the floor where the pool is located. The pool is small, and when we went swimming, there was still some algae residue in the water."
