My wife and I booked a room with the romantic option for the beginning of our honeymoon. We experienced and amazing service. My wife was able to to check in at midday to prepare herself for the wedding in the afternoon. They allowed her best friends and professionals (hairdresser, photographer etc) as well. It was a great time for her because the apartment was spacious, including a lounge beyond the bedroom and toilet. When after the wedding we went to our room we found a very romantic atmosphere, with AC on and red roses on the floor and on the bed. The apartment had a full sea view, a nice and spacious bathroom with a Jacuzzi. Very abundant breakfast served in the room. Parking underneath the hotel is included and that's very handy. Although is placed on the beira mar it's a quiet area (apart when there is a demonstration).

LOCATION & ATTRACTIONS NEARBY *** Located in the centre of Fortaleza, next to busy Praia de Mucuripe. It is within walking distance to many restaurants, beaches and shops. Secured parking is in the ground floor. HOTEL OVERVIEW *** This is more business-orientated hotel, but leisure guests would also find it quite useful, especially with the great value this hotel offers, location, great staff and spacious rooms. It is one of those tall buildings on Fortaleza’s skyline. PURPOSE OF THIS TRIP *** Leisure. RESERVATION *** Through ebookers.ie as they offered special discounted rate and I was able to use additional codes to reduce my price – for such amount I would probably only get hostel if I wanted. Pre-paid rate with breakfast. Regular prices are also very attractive. LENGTH OF MY STAY *** 1 night. CHECK-IN *** I arrived quite late and I was quickly checked-in by very helpful reception member Victor. He also advised me of the parking, hotel location, Wi-Fi access and safety features. LOBBY & RECEPTION *** Looks really good I have to say, elegant and modern. There’s restaurant attached (Henriqueta Restaurant), where you can get nice dinner and tasty breakfast. There are few lifts, but they tent to go crazy and stop on some random floors (some of them definitely not for guests). At one stage I thought I will have to walk 16th floors from the garage as none of them wanted to go to requested floor. ROOM *** My room #1654 was called Deluxe Superior with Balcony. It was really spacious, clean, but basic. There was separate living room with kitchenette and bedroom. Some elements require renovation or replacement (for example front doors which I had to kick to close, which can be dangerous as you can leave your apartment wide open). Also bathroom doors should be probably replaces as there were some holes due to humidity. There was a small balcony with side-view of the beach. Bed was extremely comfortable and I had a fantastic all night sleep. Two separate air-conditions (bedroom and living room) help keeps you cold enough in that crazy hot destination. Kitchenette was nice, but no cutlery, so you can’t really make any use of it. Mini-fridge bar was well equipped and prices were fair. BATHROOM *** Again, quite basic, but clean and with spacious shower. Good quality toiletries were provided. Bathroom doors shows their age already. BREAKFAST *** Absolutely loved it! It wasn’t huge at first (that’s what I thought), but food was delicious and selection was actually great. Warm and cold meals, fresh breads and cakes, fruit, juices, good strong coffee and warm meals counter. What I also liked was info that they will not add extra meals 30 min before breakfast ends to avoid food waste, but they can bring it to you if requested. Fantastic idea and all hotels should actually follow that. Staff was very attentive, all food (loved their cakes) really high quality and extremely tasty. Absolutely loved it. RESTAURANT *** I arrived late, so I decided to order Room Service. Choice was very decent and prices also acceptable. Food arrived as advised over the phone and it was delicious. INTERNET ACCESS *** Wi-Fi access was complimentary, but unfortunately connection not stable and it was disconnecting every so often. This should be amended. CHECK-OUT EXPERIENCE *** Quick, hassle-free and again professional. Once again, reception staff members made me feel welcomed and appreciated. STAFF *** Everybody, from Victor at reception to parking clerks were friendly and professional and welcomed all guests with genuine smile and attentiveness. OVERVIEW *** Hotel Golden Fortaleza by Intercity is very good option if you are looking for great value for money and friendly staff. Location was good, but few things could be amended to make it even better. I definitely would consider staying there again when visiting Fortaleza.

Close to everything, this hotel is well localized, 15 min from best places in Fortaleza, like Praia do futuro , Mercado municipal , street markets and shopping centers. It has rooms for all budgets, swmming pool and sauna, gym and restaurant. The structure needs reviewing , however it is clean, safe and the customer service is perfect.
