My wife and I had problems with our flight and needed a place in Rio for a night. I checked several places that we had stayed previously, but they were too expensive or too crowded. One of the hotels recommended Vilamar, which is running a R$200 special for June (normally R$250). Even at 250 reals, Vilamar is worth it. The rooms are clean and bright with comfortable beds and a great (i.e. bacon and eggs, plus the typical Brazilian breakfast). We were allowed to check out and use the facilities in the afternoon, and found the rooftop pool to be charming. The location is two and a half blocks off of Copacabana. We will be back to Vilamar. Parking is in the hotel garage at R$25.
