"Of all locations on Copacabana, we found this to be the best. You can walk over to Ipanema if you want. This end of Copacabana is a little bit more quiet than the middle of the Copacabana across from the Copacabana Palace, which we were actually very happy about. They have a great view from the upstairs pool. The beach is very convenient right across the street and it’s not a very wide beach so you don’t have to track for miles they provide you free chairs and umbrellas. The staff was unbelievably helpful and kind. Super nice people. Made you feel very welcome frankly I couldn’t give you a better rating if I could. I have been all over the world and for the Price, this is a phenomenal hotel."
