Everything was perfect—felt like coming home the moment we walked in. The staff went above and beyond with their kindness and attention to detail, making our stay truly memorable. A special shoutout to Letitia at reception—her warm welcome and genuine care made a big difference. The rooftop view is absolutely breathtaking, offering panoramic glimpses of the city and ocean that take your breath away. It’s not just a hotel; it’s an experience. We’ll definitely be back.
The hotel is about a 40-minute drive from the airport, perfectly situated between Ipanema and Copacabana beaches. Just step outside, cross the street, and you're right on the sand—fine, soft sand that feels like magic beach powder under your feet. Every staff member we met was incredibly polite and genuinely warm, always greeting guests with a smile. The pool area is stunning, and the view from outside—where mountains meet the ocean—is absolutely breathtaking, especially at sunset. We spent two full days just relaxing by the pool and on the beach, doing nothing but soaking in the vibe. We checked in early and were initially assigned a sea-view room at the end of the building, but my husband wanted something better, so we switched rooms twice before landing on a great one. It was worth the effort. The only downside? The price is steep—nearly $400 per night—but honestly, given the location, service, and overall experience, it’s not unreasonable. It’s just hard on the wallet when you’re budget-conscious!
Staying at this resort felt like a true getaway. The private beach access is a game-changer—just step outside and you're right on the sand with stunning ocean views. It's well-located, just a short ride from downtown Rio, making it easy to explore the city while still enjoying a peaceful retreat. The amenities are impressive: multiple pools (indoor and outdoor), tennis courts, and a dedicated kids’ play area that kept my children entertained all day. Despite being a luxury hotel, the price feels very reasonable—excellent value for money. The only minor downside? The sound of waves can be a bit loud if you're sensitive to noise, so I’d recommend requesting a room farther from the beach side or on a higher floor. Overall, an outstanding experience—comfortable, well-maintained, and perfect for families or couples looking for relaxation with great convenience.
Absolutely outstanding stay at this hotel! Its location is perfect—just steps away from all the vibrant energy of Rio. The breakfast was delicious and plentiful, and the amenities truly elevated the entire experience. A huge thank you to the entire team, especially Sascha—he made me feel genuinely welcome with his warm hospitality and attention to detail. Every moment felt special, and I can’t recommend this place enough. Would 100% return.
The hotel is absolutely fantastic! While the rooms are a bit dated, they’re clean, well-maintained, and surprisingly comfortable. What really stood out was the daily complimentary treats—two chocolates and 2 to 4 bottles of water per day. Small touches, but they made a big difference. The real highlight? The stunning ocean view. I highly recommend booking a sea-view room—just step outside and cross the street to reach the beach. You’ll be greeted by endless blue skies, gentle waves, and that iconic Rio coastline right at your doorstep. It’s incredibly convenient for exploring the city too, with easy access to public transit. If you're looking for a relaxing yet central stay in Rio de Janeiro, this is definitely the place to be. A perfect blend of comfort, location, and value—10/10 without a doubt!
Staying at Emiliano Rio in Copacabana was an absolute highlight of my trip to Rio. This boutique hotel is perfectly located—just a short walk from Ipanema and right in the heart of one of Rio's most vibrant neighborhoods. The views of the ocean from the room are breathtaking, especially during sunset when the sky turns into a canvas of gold and pink. The staff goes above and beyond with their kindness and attention to detail—friendly, professional, and always ready to help. The room itself is spacious and beautifully designed, with modern touches and a serene atmosphere. Service is flawless, from check-in to checkout.

I loved the breakfast spread—fresh, delicious, and full of local flavors that made me feel like I was experiencing Rio through my taste buds. Best of all? It’s just steps from the beach. Walking out the front door, you’re already on the sand—ideal for morning strolls or sunset views. The neighborhood feels safe and well-connected, with easy access to public transit if you want to explore further. Everything about this place felt thoughtfully designed, from the ambiance to the details. A true gem in Rio, and I’ll definitely be back.
