Ipanema is, by far, the most pleasant neighborhood in Rio. However, since Carnival is about to start (I was there in February), hotels are full and their rates are outrageous. Copacabana Rio, a hotel with more affordable rates, is located in the border between Copacabana and Ipanema, so staying in it is a compromise solution between price and location. As... More

Excellent location, situated on a street parallel to Copacabana Beach. Clean room, in the lobby they have free internet desktop computer, Reasonable breakfast. The flow of water in the shower very weak. Anyone looking for a good location and clean rooms - then this is the place for him We were three nights last week of November 2011. Recommended We... More

I have been to Rio so many times. The hotels have become quite expensive over the last 2-3 years. Even the 5 star hotels are not that nice. But they are truly and horribly expensive, especially the ones facing the beach. This hotel is a simple tourist type hotel in the range of 3-4 stars and is RIGHT ON THE... More

In some points, here are my critics: - Not clean at all: I found hair in the toilets and bed, - Smelly from the old furnitures and the kitchen (do not open the window, if you stay in the back) - Poor service from all the employees, not kind, educated or profissional!! - When we ask a taxi to the...

My wife and I stayed at the Copacabana Rio Hotel in February. The rooms were adequate, comfortable and had a fridge. The high room top bar/ small swimming pool had a great view down Copacabana Beach even though it is one road back from the beach. Its location made it easy to walk to Ipanema Beach also. The shopping and... More

Hotels in Brazil are usually not cheap; this is moderately priced (within Rio standards). If you do not find or cannot afford something like a seafront hotel this is a good choice, the are is just fine, located one block from the beach with a couple of good restaurants nearby. The rooms are clean, helpful staff and well kept property... More

We quite enjoyed our time at Copacabana Rio. We were previously at a dump of a hotel that was charging nearly the same price, so this place by comparison seemed like good value (it's still pricey, yes, but that's just the neighbourhood). Very pretty hotel, with a comfy lobby, and an adorable room. Our room actually had a front hallway!... More

No words to describe hoe great this hotel was, friendly people, great room, great view! More

Just perfect for the price , location great and easy access to the beach . It is on the right end of copacabana just beside the start of Ipanema . The staff are attentive , breakfast substantial but what really sold it to us was the small but high rooftop pool where the afternoon caprinhas flowed . More
