I can say safely that hotel is great, super location (although next time ill try to stay in Leblon area, much nicer), well appointed, staff friendly and... More

This was our first trip to Rio and we were completely satisfied with this hotel from check-in to check-out. The location is wonderful, right on Copacabana Beach and close to banks, shopping, and public transportation. The décor is light and contemporary, and the hotel cleanliness is excellent, both in the rooms and public spaces. The roof pool/bar/patio area is lovely... More

It's right on Copacabana beach, great location. The hotel is modern, clean and the staff were excellent. The rooms are not huge, but if you're in Rio most of your time should be spent outside anyways. The roof deck is outstanding and a great place to have a drink and soak in the scenery. I would return.

Price was not cheap for low season (around 250 euros), but unfortunately prices have been increasing a lot in Rio these past years The good points are the following: - Localisation on Copacabana beach with nice view on the sea - Room and equipments are quite modern and clean compared to the low...

I recently spent 4 nights in Rio at the Arena as part of a business trip to the city. I found the Hotel to be perfect for my needs. The rooms were clean and functional - it is clear that recent refurbishment must have been done on them. The staff were all friendly and helpful. For both business and leisure... More

Modern hotel in great location.... but small basic rooms, and due to mis-guided use of re-cycled water, every time you flush the toilet there is a STRONG smell of raw sewage. I would not recommend this hotel until the management fix this issue. Not what you want in a hotel room....

Very nice room, great staff, Good location. Pool is not really a pool, pretty shallow, but great to cool off in, and great views of the beach. The breakfast was good, nice showers. Internet cost me R$30 a day. Shop around, I stayed here for around 260 a night.

If you like a rock hard bed, this might be the place for you. I like a firm mattress, but this was crazy. It was hard to get a good night's sleep. The rest of our room was modern and well maintained. Beyond the iron mattress, it's a clean hotel in a fantastic location, and the prices are reasonable for... More
