Hilton Copacabana Rio de Janeiro

10/10 Excellent

"It has an excellent view from top terrace, of the Copacabana Beach, of the Cristo Redentor Monument and the Pan de Azúcar Skylift!"

Américas Granada Hotel

8/10 Good

"The housekeeping staff were generally attentive. The documentation of the minibar use could be more efficient. The breakfast service needs more attention to the quality of the cooked items, and someone needs to manage the dining room. I had a dinner experience where one of the ingredients was spoiled. Luggage storage before arrival and immediately after checkout was a convenient and welcome feature as an international traveler. The rooftop sauna was out of order but the area is still worth visiting as there is a pool and great views. If you enjoy the nightlife and bar scene, the hotel is located in the Lapa neighborhood and walking distance to the restaurants and bars there."

Hotel Art Lapa

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location in Lapa. Plenty of bars, restaurants, and clubs both right next door and all along the next couple of blocks. But be careful, the availability of the local live music means that if your room faces the street it can be very LOUD, even with the windows closed. Don’t miss out on the samba, but make sure you bring earplugs to sleep! The staff are wonderful, very attentive. I lost a necklace behind the safe and they made sure to recover it for me promptly. The kitchenette is very helpful. The fridge is huge and there’s a functioning microwave. Pots, pans, and utensils are provided but no seasonings or cooking oil. If you’re going to use the kitchenette make sure you buy salt and pepper! Overall an excellent stay, wonderful location. I would be back in a heartbeat."
