We arrived tired after a long flight and were immediately looked after well by the staff and able to unwind in a very clean and comfortable room. The next morning the view from the room and even better that from the restaurant and the roof-top pool area were great when Copacabana beach became to hot. We had breakfast and lunch... More

From the time we entered to the hotel we received an excellent service. Reception staff was wonderful and very helpful! Whatever we requested, they arranged it immediately. Rooms are nice, clean and modern, bathroom is a bit small tough. We had a side sea view room from which you could partially sea the Copacabana. Full sea views must be even... More

Excellent view of Copacabana beach from the rooftop. Every detail has been carefully considered from the attractive lobby to the super clean room and comfortable bed with freshly pressed linens to the ocean front dining room where breakfast was served each morning. The staff was friendly and helpful - we could not have been more pleased with our choice. More

Great hotel. The web site photos are actually quite realistic... Excellent localization and the staff was tremendously helpful and friendly. The rooms were nothing incredibly special, but neat, renovated, very clean and had a nice view. GREAT pool area (unfortunately, not deep for diving, but very refreshing and great seating/bar as well) It is a little pricey if you haven't... More

We go to Rio every year - my partner is Brazilian - and booked this hotel because we could not get in at our usual preferred hotel - Windsor Excelsior - and was also curious as to why it was ranked #2 Hotel to stay at in Rio on Tripadvisor. I am still non the wiser. We went for a... More

The rooms are OK and the location is nice but that's where the good ends. First the internet is $40R a day. Second I show up in the evening and need to iron my clothes and call down for an iron, but they don't have any. You have to put it in a bag and pay to get it ironed,... More

The hotel is good, with clean rooms and good service overall. The breakfast buffet is excellent! Although only a block away from the Copacabana Palace hotel, it is worth noting that the location is no longer very good. Leblon and Ipanema are better locations, but good hotels in Rio are not easy to find. The Porto Bay was also extremely... More
