Cubo Hotel - Rio Branco
A garden hotel with a pool that runs all year
Rio Branco, Rio Branco
About this stay
Cubo Hotel treats the outdoor pool as the centrepiece rather than an afterthought, open year-round and framed by a garden big enough for the picnic area tucked alongside it. Family rooms come with air-conditioning, a work desk, minibar and TV, and the property also lists apartment-style units for guests who want more space to spread out over a longer stay. A small wellness area rounds out the leisure side of the property. The free airport shuttle removes the guesswork from the 9-kilometre run from Rio Branco International Airport, and staff fluent in Spanish and Portuguese make the check-in process straightforward for visitors arriving from across the border as much as from within Brazil. Nazaré Cathedral and Parque da Maternidade are both a short drive away.

Our take
Families who want their children in the pool by mid-afternoon rather than stuck in traffic will get the most out of Cubo Hotel, and the free airport shuttle removes one of the more tedious parts of arriving in Rio Branco. Solo travellers on a work trip may find the garden setting more suited to unwinding than networking, since the property leans toward leisure over business facilities.
- ✓Reserve the airport shuttle in advance rather than assuming a same-day slot will be free.
- ✓Ask for a garden-facing family room if the pool view matters more than proximity to parking.
- ✓Pack for the picnic area; it gets little promotion but is one of the nicer corners of the grounds.

Why guests love itThe pool is genuinely open every month of the year, which is not something every hotel in Rio Branco can claim, and the garden around it gives children room to run that a lot of city-centre properties simply do not have. The free shuttle from the airport also took the stress out of arriving with luggage and a tired toddler. Rooms themselves are comfortable rather than stylish, and the picnic area is a nice touch that most guests seem to overlook on arrival.
