Amuarama Hotel

The staff were really kind. The pool was so big and they had a 24 hour reception. It was very near the train station

The keys kept malfunctioning which was a little frustrating since our room was very far from the front desk. The air conditioner took a long time to start working but thankfully it did after a while. Breakfast was good and the cute kittens running around were a definite highlight :)

Enjoyable stay in Fortaleza The Amuarama Hotel is spacious with live greenery everywhere, a nice pool, a large rotating staff always ready to help (English not strong though). The front desk does not make change even from a 50 real note ($10), and the local ATMs need a Brazilian id to get money out, even the "24 hour" system which is supposed to be international. Excellent buffet breakfast, varied, fresh fruit, juices, never a problem with the food which is always fresh and covered from occasional flies and the rare small mosquito, dinner buffet also good and varied, nothing we didn't enjoy, and prices very reasonable compared to US. Comfortable beds and everything clean, adjustable A/C. Refrigerator in room, huge Carrefour grocery/hypermarket less than 5 minutes away though across a main street. The bathroom door knob is a challenge to turn to open the door from the inside. If you want English news, the only channel we found is CGTN, the Chinese Global Television Network, which uses native English-language announcers and reporters and emphasizes economic news, US included. Close to our conference but a fair distance from the city center and points of interest, though taxis and ubers instantly available at a very reasonable cost. They handle large groups as well as individual bookings. Basically good value and a good place to stay, and the staff work hard to make sure you are happy.

Nice hotel and excellent services
