torre forte apart hotel
Apartment-style rooms near the Horto Florestal green belt
Rio Branco, Rio Branco
About this stay
Torre Forte classifies itself as an apart-hotel rather than a plain hotel, and the family rooms reflect that: air-conditioned, with private bathrooms, showers, free toiletries and television, built for a stay longer than a single night. The year-round outdoor pool is the other selling point, open regardless of season and paired with free WiFi across the property. Its position puts Horto Florestal, Rio Branco's urban forest reserve, about eight kilometres away, alongside Nazaré Cathedral, Parque da Maternidade and the Joaquim Macedo Footbridge, each around seven kilometres out. This is a green-belt address rather than a downtown one, better suited to guests with a rental car or who are happy to rely on taxis for sightseeing.

Our take
Families wanting an apartment-style footprint with a pool for the afternoons will do well here, and the review score, high despite a small sample, suggests consistent service. The distance from downtown attractions is the trade-off: this is not a walk-to-the-cathedral address, so guests without their own transport should weigh the seven-kilometre gaps to the main landmarks before booking.
- ✓Arrange transport in advance since downtown landmarks sit seven kilometres or more away.
- ✓Choose this over a plain hotel room if you need to store groceries or cook between excursions.
- ✓Check pool hours directly with the property if travelling outside the main season.

Why guests love itStaying here felt less like a hotel room and more like a small flat, which made the week go by more comfortably than a standard double would have. The pool got daily use once the afternoon heat set in, and the apartment layout meant we were not tripping over suitcases by day three. The trade-off is that everything interesting downtown is a proper taxi ride away rather than a stroll, so this suits a stay built around the hotel itself more than one built around sightseeing.
