Common Mistakes

  • Este hotel há ótimas comodidades.

    Learners sometimes use ‘há’ (there is/are) instead of ‘tem’ which changes the focus; ‘há’ is impersonal, while ‘tem’ attributes the amenities to the hotel.

  • Este hotel tem ótimo comodidades.

    The adjective must agree with ‘comodidades’; using the masculine form ‘ótimo’ is incorrect.

  • Este hotel tem ótimas comodidade.

    ‘Comodidade’ is feminine; using the masculine ‘comodidade’ would be a gender error.

Alternatives

    This hotel offers excellent facilities.

Cultural Tip

In Brazil, hotels often highlight amenities such as free Wi‑Fi, continental breakfast, and a rooftop pool. When speaking to locals, using ‘comodidades’ sounds natural, but ‘facilidades’ or ‘serviços’ are also common. In more upscale settings, you might hear ‘instalações de luxo’ to stress luxury.
