    The beach is at the end of Copacabana which is not the best but you are only minutes walk to Ipanema where the hotel has cabanas and a very nice beachside cafe with day beds and beach lounges.

    The staff is excellent. The best I’ve seen outside the USA. The view of sugar loaf from the infinity pool is amazing. Happy hour is great with live music every night. If you stay in the Gold Status rooms you can take advantage of a free happy hour with excellent food included. The Brazilian champagne is excellent

    Perhaps a little more generosity regarding the mini bar; only water and coffee free of charge

    Perfectly situated on the edge of Copacabana and Ipanema, the views are absolutely stunning. We had a King Ocean View room and woke up to views of Sugarloaf. The rooms are very spacious and the bed incredibly comfortable, all kept very clean and tidy by housekeeping (thanks Maria and team). Indeed what really makes the place is the staff; exceptionally friendly and helpful with a special mention to Luceanne, a concierge who arranged trips, helped us plan our days and was just a general all round star. Just excellent as was Alfredo and the team on the door and the rest of the staff, just too many to mention individually! General facilities were excellent.

    Only thing would be a better tequila selection.

    Staff was amazing, bed and room were great. The staff come around numerous times a day to refill waters and snack bar. Night time bar is fun with great dj. We originally went to Sheraton to save money. Spent a night and moved to fairmont. Sheraton was disgusting compared to fairmont. Definitely worth the extra bucks. Food was great. Spa was amazing as well

    We tried to find something but everything was very fine ;)

    A wonderfully located swimming pool with the most beautiful view of the entire Copacabana and Sugar Head (we also stayed at the Hilton and Pestana). A very tasty and varied breakfast, also with a beautiful view in the background. Live music in the evenings. Nice and neatly designed interior and very helpful staff.

    I don’t think that the photos are accurate. The pool is small, but space in Copacabana is at an absolute premium. We would far rather stay in this location with a smaller pool, than 20 mins away with a bigger pool.

    This is the place to stay in Rio. The location is absolutely perfect, on the edge of Copacabana beach and 5 minutes from Ipanema. We upgraded to receive a balcony facing Copacabana which we highly recommend, it was magical seeing Copacabana and sugar loaf mountain from our balcony. Service is really excellent. Big shout out to a number of concierge specialists including Lionel and the fantastic Maurice. Live music in the evening was also fantastic.

    I had reserved the upper floors and had paid more for it, but when they handed over the room to me, they said that all the rooms on the upper floor are full and maybe they can be moved in the next days (rooms facing the sea). And the next point, unfortunately, the pool facilities are available to the bar and restaurant after 6:00 PM, and you must order food to be able to use those places.

    We have a leak in our basin and despite telling the reception desk 4 times (ie Every Single Morning of our stay) they did not fix it. So every time we brushed our teeth or washed our hands & face water would come gushing our of the pipes below and drenching our feet, towels and hair dryer. That made the bathroom quite damp for the entire duration of our stay. Secondly - the space around the swimming pools & restaurant can get very crowded. It felt cramped in the public areas. Thirdly - there need to be more lounge beds on the beach in front of Tropik beach bar. When visiting the beach anytime after 11am there is no place got sit except the bar area. Not ideal for a beach holiday - but the bar is fantastic and staff are great. And the hotel is really a beautiful property - please fix the plumbing and made space for more guests by the pool areas please

    Elegant. Modern. Chic. Location Central and great views of CopaCabana
