Authorities were already searching for the man since his wife reported him missing earlier this week.
The body of Borghoff da Rocha, a businessman and advertizing executive, was found at around 11 pm Thursday evening in his room at the luxury hotel Mercure Prinz by staff who suspected that the guest had left. He arrived at the property last Tuesday and had not been seen since.
