South American Copacabana Hotel  

The hotel was in a quiet area, convenient to the beach, The room was well equiped, comfortable and well cleaned. Free internet in lounge. Abundant and varied breakfast, hot , cold and fruit. All staff very helpful.

The room was in a good state of maintenance. Location is good for those that want to spend time in Copacabana as well as for those interested more in Ipanema (5 minutes walking from the gay beach).

Staff wasn't fully honest. Upon arrival, the bell-boy brought us to the room. It was a twin room, although we had booked a double room. When I made a comment on this, the bell-boy said that all the double rooms were occupied, but the single beds can be connected to form a big bed. I then went to the reception, where the receptionist said that the hotel had no double rooms (rooms with double beds), and that when a client wants a double room, the two twin beds are connected. I found it hard to believe that the hotel had no rooms with double beds. When a house keeping employee came to connect the beds, my Portuguese speaking partner asked whether there were rooms with a double bed. The employee confirmed. While the solution (connecting the two beds) was OK, the question is why the receptionist lied, saying that there were no double rooms in the hotel? Why not be honest?

The room was really nice. I loved that all the desk front people spoke in English or Spanish. The service was good. It is close to Copacabana and Ipanema.

Everything was good. I think the sauna is small and too hide. The swimming pool is a little small too.

Location.

Needs renovation.

The front desk was helpful. The rooms were clean and private. And a safe friendly place in a great location near copacabana beach

The staff didn't speak English.

The breakfast is good.

The furniture of the room is old. 70% of the attendants are always in a bad mood. The corridor smells of mildew. My wife is allergic to dust mites, then we find that the problem was in the small curtains. If you need anything, like a voltage transformer, ask first for the cleaning staff if they have, because the attendants will say that they don´t have, as it happened.

It was close to both the Copacabana and Ipanema beaches.

The bathroom and toilet need renovation.

Very friendly and helpfull English speaking staff, excellent location close to both Ipanema and Copacabana beaches, very good breakfast buffet. Excellent price/quality ratio, would book again without hesitation for short stays.

Room / hotel furnishings a little out-dated but comfortable enough, some airco problems and bathrooms a little too small.

This was our favourite hotel during a month in South America. Two blocks to Copacabana beach and three to Ipanema shopping. Beautiful spacious room and big bathroom with plenty of places to put things. Breakfast wide range and good quality. Did not have great deal to do with staff but when we did they were helpful and efficient. Great view of Rio from the roof. We would definitely stay there again.

i did not matter to us but the rooftop pool is nice but quite small, more a quick dip pool than a laze by it all day one.

Location was good.

Tired hotel in need of refurbishment. Dark corridors (energy saving light bulbs that worked on motion detectors) made for a creepy experience.

breakfast was good

it was hard to find a staff who could speak English.

Friendly staff. Great location. Nice breakfast.

Air condition old and super loud, very hard to sleep. Low value for money. About 5x5m pool.

The hotel is in a great location for walking to both ipanema and copacabana. The hotel itself is pleasant and the front desk staff is friendly.
