My husband and I stayed at Hotel Astoria Palace for 4 nights from Dec 25-29th. We had a fantastic stay. This hotel is in a great location across the street from Copacabana beach. It is in walking distance to the subway and bus stops as well as many restaurants. The hotel itself is very nice and very clean. The rooms... More

I booked this hotel at an exhorbitant price as I spent New Year in Rio with my wife, daughter and parents and wanted to overlook the Copacabana. It was my first choice of hotels based on reviews, but the other better options were either full or unaffordable. So this was a compromise. I made it abundantly clear that I would... More

This hotel is by far one of the worst I have ever stayed in!! We came for 3 nights over the 2011/2012 new year. We chose it primarily because of it's excellent location on Copacabana Beach - which is the only good thing about this HORRIBLE hotel. Our room was not clean, the room was not serviced for the entire... More

Hotel Astoria Palace is ranked 4 stars. I am not entirely sure why. Not a bad place, but 4 stars is a bit generous. In my rankings of places, the hospitality provided at the front desk may play TOO heavy of a role...hospitality at the front desk makes or breaks a place. However, I don't go staying at too many...

Centrally loacted right in the middle of copacabana beach,(only a few doors up from Copacabana Palace) good value for money, basic but clean and well located, with staff very helpful. There is a small desk that arranges tours and transport. 40 mins to international airport, restaurant onsite and next door. Brilliant cocktail bar right two doors down. Roof top pool... More

The hotel is average at best the service from the front desk is non existent. There is a much better hotel 1/2 block away. More

Right across from Copacabana Beach, the Astoria Palace has as good a location as the iconic Copacabana Palace at a much lower price. Not that this is a luxurious property, as it isn't. But it is very comfortable, though short on amenities. I highly recommend the Superior deluxe rooms, which are larger and have a great view of the Copacabana... More

We arrived at the hotel at around 1pm and we're told that our room wouldn't be available until 2pm. We therefore left our luggage in the luggage store, and went out for lunch. Upon our return we were given the keys to our room, which was standard and had no views at all. I did enquire about a room with... More

A great location for a few nights in Rio.. Definitely request a seaview room, arrive on a Saturday night and awake Sunday morning with a view of Copacabana beach with no traffic. Everyone out enjoying the sunshine. The hotel itself is ok, I would call it a 3 Star in Europe. Breakfast buffet very good quality. More
