The Rio Othon Palace Hotel is situated in the Copacabana beach front, with a very nice view from the rooms that are situated at the sea front. The hotel is not a 5 stars hotel by european standards, maybe a 4 stars. Breakfast is at the same level, good enough, but nothing special. The swimming pool at the top of... More

Nice location, spacious rooms, but a bit old. Needs to be refreshed a little. The swimming pool is a joke, so small and it looked so dirty when we arrived. We didn't even try it, better to stay on the beach.

Room was OK, but quite tired despite being one of the refurbished rooms. Hotel bluntly told me that no rooms were available at the front of the hotel (these have the best ocean views). The official photos and actual name of the hotel (palace) set my expectation too high, hence my disappointment. I will try another hotel in Rio next... More

Big room and comfortable bed, not out of the average, but the view pays all. Ask for rooms with a view to the ocean. Decent breakfast. Strategic placed to visit attractions in Rio. And of course to spend in the hearth of Rio Copacabana beach. Also is convenient if you go with children because is in front of the beach.

I stayed here for some nights when I was working in Rio. My flight got in at 5.30 AM, so I booked a room the day before to have an early check in the next day. Upon arrival at the check in kiosk they spent 1 hour finding my reservation. After 1 hour, the guy left... So at this pint... More

We stayed in this hotel for 4 nights as part of our honeymoon which we booked through Trailfinders. We stayed in room 1913 and the view was nice.
