La propiedad está bien estuve siete días aunque el jueves y viernes santo había muchísima gente y eso impedía conseguir reposeras pero en general el servicio los demás días muy bien

Hotel Arpoador
Brilliant breakfast, great location on the beachfront. Nice to have beach umbrellas available too

Rio Othon Palace
Hotel ok, but the room in the 10th floor was very noise as the window glas is not noise cancelling. The rooftop bar is great.

Hilton Copacabana Rio de Janeiro
There was a layer of grime on the floors, toilet didn’t flush properly, the door had cracks and mold. Someone tried to enter our room and staff was very unfriendly and unhelpful. We also stayed at the Emiliano down the street and it was just fabulous in every sense.
