The rooftop bar (and pool) offer lovely views of the beach.

), in a restaraunt overlooking the beach.

What can I say, I booked a partial beach view and ended up with the beach to my left and Christ the Redeemer to my right, I guess that will do!!!!

The rooftop pool and bar area is pretty nice, with friendly bar attendants and spectacular views up and down the beach.

We pre-booked this hotel for our Carnaval week stay
Location is great , right on Copacabana beach with views of the beach from our room and from the rooftop pool area

Generally friendly and helpful staff

The rooms are large and comfortable

Really good service, great, clean, quiet room with a side view of the beach.

The bar and pool on the roof Top are excellent and prepares good drinks and snacks. a great way to enjoy the beach view if you don't really like to be at the beach :)

The room is big and has a ocean and beach views.

Our room was really nice with a side view of the beach (502) it was spacious and comfortable bed.

Good location, right on the sea front with great views of the beach.

Clean property and rooms, friendly staff, excellent breakfast, great rooftop view, and most rooms have a full or partial view of the beach.

The breakfast buffet is substantial and is in a beautiful location overlooking the beach.

The location is perfect, in the middle of Copacabana beach and most of the rooms offer a beach view.

Roof bar & swimming pool provides wonderful views of the beach & the city.

but had a beautiful view over the beach and ocean.

Our room had a spectacular view of the beach and the free breakfast was delicious.

The rooftop bar and swimming pool is the standout feature of this hotel- the views of the beach etc.

I choose Arena Copacabana hotel because has the best view of the beach .

Across Avenida Atlantica is Copacabana beach - great location.

The view from the room is of Copacabana Beach, with no obstructions.

Love the rooftops views the service is located front of copacabana beach great customer service.

We'd specifically booked a hotel that would have a view to Copacabana beach.

This hotel is located in the heart of Copacabana Beach and just across the street from the beach.

although the night it is way cooler in temperature and the view in the evening over Copacabana beach is awesome.

Its represents excellent value for money given its location on Copacabana beach and is, in general, very comfortable.

But, after a lot of stress, I managed to enjoy the beautiful view of the 
Copacabana beach.

The top floor has a panoramic view of Copacabana beach and you can see the sunrise in the morning.

Stayed three nights/ Hotel looks onto Copacabana beach.

This is a comfortable modern hotel in an excellent location right on Copacabana beach.

The main plus of this hotel is it's position right on the Copacabana beach and yet the rooms were not noisy.

A great place to stay, really top location and view to the Copacabana beach.

The location of the hotel is a major plus point with it being right opposite the Copacabana Beach.

Room was comfortable and our view was amazing looking right out over Copacabana beach.

Located right in the middle and in front of Copacabana Beach, this modern hotel is a great value.

Fantastic location on Copacabana beach and reception staff were very helpful with recommendations.

Furthermore, it took forever to book the New Year's party package. We also had to send our credit card details by E-MAIL (!!)

 Felt safe security in the foyer lovely roof terrace view of the beach and Christ the redeemer lovely poo
Yes there was only one lift working it was not an issue really
But I would say check your bill we found a smoking charge added they didn’t point it out and we don’t smoke so we were a bit outraged requested second check and it was removed from bill  .

If your travel company lives on a different floor than you, you cannot easily visit their room, because your elevator key card only permits you to visit your own floor.

only one comment, they charge the stay either when you book or at the check in+ instead of standard procedure> they should charge at the check out.

2) was charged for 2 bottles of ordinary water

There is iPhone charging points so you can simply plug in the USB adapter.

Adaptors can also be borrowed from Front Desk to charge shavers, etc.

In the room I could only locate 1 electrical outlet for charging which is too little these days.

Also note coffee reasonable price tea very expensive - we ordered tea for 2 to our room and was charged £12.

With 2 people we had 2 phones and 2 iPads so getting things charged was a challenge.

My only problem is one night I tried to bring a female friend and a security guard tried to charge me for a guest when a night before I had friends over with no problem so I thought that was kinda dishonest.

although you can still order fried eggs they are charged for.

The door card never worked, so on multiple occasions every single day for 5 nights during our stay we had to come downstairs to get a new card.

Unfortunately, till this day i did not received any post cards.

You think I have got this charges addressed?!

The only complaint is there weren't any outlets near the bed for charging phones, etc.

At check out staff didn't  even looked at my face, instead kept talking to a coworker, the only time he acknowledged me it was when he needed my credit card!

However, the hotel had crammed the dining room full with tables so it felt extremely uncomfortable and the queues to the small buffet table were just too long. Queues to the two, already inadequate and downright scary elevators were long, and I actually ended up taking the stairs (a long and very sweaty work-out!)

The only thing I did not like too much was the elevator system.

The coffee at breakfast is always dreadful, the internet is rather flaky, and the lifts somewhat unreliable.

Out of the two elevators only ONE was working.

The lift clanked constantly all night so I couldn’t get to sleep.

Usually there are mirrors near the lifts so you can check what you look like before going out,

Our only complain is that one of the elevators was out if service for most of our stay, and the bathroom in one of our rooms did not want to flush at times.

The lift was a bit small and rickety and not good for persons with claustrophobia.

I was given Room 1203 which was right next to the hotel elevator so it was quite noisy with people coming and going all night.

even though we heard others talking about the elevator.

On 3 of the 4 days during our stay, my key stopped working which necessitated catching the lift and going back down to Reception.

Plus, you have to use your room key to get the elevator to go up and that didn't always work right.

Only downside was all the rooms are quite close to the elevator so if you have noisy neighbours they might keep you up

At the rooftop bar, Jailton is a wonderful bartender and always has a smile on his face and makes our rooftop dinners very enjoyable!

Great breakfast and a nice bar at the roof top with the best view of Copacabana Beach.

The rooftop bar is great for sitting day or night

Roof top bar has the best view and best caipirinhas 
3.

All the staff were super helpful and friendly, and all the guys at the rooftop bar were fabulous people!

Hotel is very well positioned and has a great roof top bar with fabulous views.

but for us it was the roof top bar area and bar staff Jailton who made our stay fantastic.

Also, I had the best time at the rooftop bar which has an awesome view of Rio.

The fascinating mixture of old and new architecture is something to be experienced, not just the beach culture.

The hotel is also very well situated within Rio, very close to all beaches.

Great location in safe neighborhood close to beaches.

The staff were helpful and the location is ideal to get to both ipanema and copacabana beaches.

The hotel is only a street away from the beach good situation.

It has a great location just a five minute walk from both Copacabana and Ipanema beaches.

Staff was always friendly and tried to help whenever they could. The location of the hotel is good - in between the two biggest beaches (Ipanema and Copacabana)

Close to beach and shops once you find your way!

The hotel is located close to the beach and some of the rooms have ocean view,

3 or 4 blocks to either beach (Ipanema or Copacabana) same distance to the Historic Fort.

Roof top terrace with great view, close to the beaches of Copacabana and Ipanema.

You could see the beaches, mountains, and favelas just a few blocks away.

Good location, just a short walk from both Copacabana & Ipanema beaches.

Steps from Ipanema and Copacabana beaches, the Atlantis has large, clean, comfortable rooms.

First, location was perfectly located just three blocks off the beach and was centrally located between Ipanema and Copacabana.

The location of this hotel is absolutely perfect - situated right between Copacabana and Ipanema, 2 minutes from the beach, with all amenities around it's an ideal setting.

!only 5 minutes to main beaches in Rio and near all means of transportation.

The hotel is close to both Ipanema & Copacabana beaches and feels very safe with plenty of staff members in the lobby/downstairs area, who were able to also coordinate transport on several occasions for my friends & I. I booked the most basic hotel room and found it to be very clean.

It’s proximity to the coast line is great.

Avoid flashing items and at the beach ask someone near you to take care of your items while you bathe in the amazing ocean.

Walking distance to both beach for early morning jog or strolling.

Great location, near the beaches of Copacabana, Ipanema and Leblon, so you can do many things by foot.

PROS
•	Spacious room
•	Very close to the beach
•	Good wifi
•	Big beds
•	Wide selection for breakfast
CONS
•	Swimming pool out of use for the two days we stayed
•	No spray attachment on shower, more like garden hose 
•	Not very personable

As it's close to both beaches, it's also close to a number of good restaurants and bars.

It is close to the beaches, various restaurants and small grocery stores.

Great Location close to all the best beaches and restaurants
tired

Great location, near the beach, the center, restaurants etc.

If you're looking for a place close to the beach, restaurants and other spots, it's the place for you.

-Wifi was excellent, had no connection or speed problems. -Good size room 
-Clean
-Close to both beaches, supermarket and pharmacy (pharmacy staff lack English and competence!)

The hotel is close to both beaches, shops and restaurants and even after midnight we felt quite safe walkikng back from the beach haveing had a lovely evening people watching on Copacabana.

Except for the position close to the beach, I have nothing good to report.

We stayed here because we wanted to be close to the beaches.

In the end of my stay they charged my for that.

The only thing I was annoyed with is they don't have an iron and charge you  $5 brazilian for EVERY ITEM you need ironed.

It also seems their electrical wiring is old because my phone took forever to charge.

The suggestion is to charge our things downstairs.

2) Most of the power plugs did not work in the room and when we complained they told us to charge our phones and laptops in the lobby (sorry, is this a hostel??).

I got home and I realized they had billed me for 2 rooms for the first night.

On our last day they charged us extra for telephone calls we did not make!!

The 220-V socket in the room did not work (although present) and we were sent to the kitchen for charging the mobile phone battery.

When we returned home we realized we had been charged for an extra night.

the room is pretty basic for the high 200$ they charge

Also, watch what you get charged in comparison to the price list.

but was so noisy we both didnt hardly sleep..
Sunday morning we had breakfast which was good and then spoke with the guy who had checked us in as he seemed to be in charge, he was aware of what had happened but wasnt apologetic as he said the hotel is allways full so the rooms cant be that bad.

After I checked out on my last day, they let me leave my bag there until the evening, secure and at no extra charge.

My stay began suffered badly, the staff has tried to charge the cost of the room on my credit card  a few hours before coming to hotel.Bad way to do it.

I also got charged for mini-bar items that I did not use, they simply were never in the fridge,

but the bed felt damp and only one very small pillow, you used the room card for the electricity and only one card given so you could not have the air conditioning on when out of the room, so it was hot and stuffy every time you came back, then very noisey when the air/con was on along with the fridge.

After 3 days (which is when, according to the information on a card in the room, new towels and sheets are supplied), we came back to our room at 3pm expecting it to have been serviced,

Also, if a card is a little wet (like ours was when we came back from the beach) it won't work so well, so make sure to wipe it before putting in the "holder".

The card for the lights was annoyingly erratic and several times we would suddenly find ourselves plunged into darkness.

however noisy, at least the one I stayed in, even with the window locked I could hear the street noise.

but you hear nearly everything from your neighbours.

but try to get a high floor as the street noise is loud and consistent (stayed on the 1st floor) lifts were small and took a while to get anywhere.

So I booked an extra night to avoid the risk of the 12:00 checkout (as my plane left at 21:45).

They installed new Windows and spruced up the elevator landings.

The wi fi was positively horrendous; getting internet service and making the FC Barcelona's first team were probably equally difficult.

but the dining room is noisy and there aren't enough seats in the busy morning hours.

3) Woke up most mornings to banging (presume room works somewhere above us).

Room is not soundproof and when the neighbour use the toilet you hear the water noise, better don't say anything about what you hear in the night.

The hotel is on a side street with little through traffic which is just as well since the hotels loosely fitted single glazed windows did little to keep the noise out.

A couple of good points:
* Great Location
* Much faster WiFi than many other hotels in Brazil
* Comfortable beds

A couple of bad points:
* A little rundown
* They will encourage you to use non meter taxi's that are more expensive
* Their lower floor rooms are a little noisy with the windows open.

but you never know depends on your tolerance for noise.

There is a fair amount of street noise and the air conditioners in the rooms are noisy.

Soundproofing was lousy and you will hear any noise in the hallway.

but he did not communicate this discreetely with the guest: he was shouting from the reception, over to the guest standing in the hotel entrance, this is how I (and probably everybody present in the lobby) could realise what happened.

When u finally understand that person speaks english u realized she prefers to keep her mother tongue to avoid contact. So if u consider u are a cash machine then go to this hotel without respect for them clients, with poor bedrooms & air conditioning from 80's (noisy & inefficient)

but leave our room full of puddle and go out to avoid the noise from the wind.

Room was small and very noisy, A/C was noisy, and if you turn it off trying to sleep, you can hear the one from neighbor´s rooms, unbeliavable!!

The room itself was clean and ok. nothing special.

The ONLY positive was how well housekeeping kept the rooms so clean.

Great service, nice and kind staff, delicious breakfast, lovely swimming pool on the top, extremely clean rooms and.

Hotel rooms were clean and comfortable with good air-conditioning.

The room was clean, brightly lit with a large bed and good water pressure in the shower.

Everyone was so nice, room clean and decent, blocks from Copacabana and Ipanema Beach and Metro station.

but the rooms are clean and the attendants are gentle.

Economical rates, clean rooms, comfy beds, the staff is alright and helped us with some day tours.

Rooms are relatively clean and room service comes everyday.

solid 3 star hotel; my room was clean, pretty spacious, renovated; breakfast with plentiful of tasty snacks, fruits etc.

Rooms are clean, and from what we viewed as we walked by other rooms, Europe-nly small.

A small supermarket and pharmacy nearby with The Hippie Market on a Sunday just a few blocks away in General Osorio square.

There’s a small supermarket 2-3 minutes away.

A few supermarkets and restaurants closeby.

There is a small supermarket down the street from the hotel and there was a fridge in our room which was great.

Many restaurants (low-cost or otherwise) and supermarkets within walking distance.

24 hour pharmacy and restaurant a few blocks away, supermarket 2 blocks away, little bar with coffee, beer and good lunch right on the corner.

A Bauru sandwich at BRL 12

Hotels location is very convenient with short walks to both beaches and metro station, Supermarket 1 block away and taxi rank at end of street.

ATM & supermarket a 5 min walk away & they give you directions.

Stayed for 6 nights in June 14 ( mature couple)
Terrific location for Copacabana/Ipanema
Clean and efficient with no frills
Large clean bedroom with sea  view ( de- luxe) Good A/C
Good breakfast
Most staff don't speak great English and not terribly friendly
Ideal for short visit though
Close to supermarket ,Ipanema restaurants

Another bonus is the Zona Zol supermarket was only five minutes walk away and we used this store everyday for drinks, snacks and lunches to go.

There is a small well stocked supermarket one block from the hotel.

Just a few minutes walk to one of the famous beaches (Copacabana or Ipanema) and also a short distance to a supermarket and a lot of restaurants.

It was also close to restaurants, supermarkets, a church, etc.

the big supermarket zona sul is just opposite and one can stock up on bottled water, etc.

This hotel has the best location, right between Copacabana and Ipanema beaches, 3 blocks from a bus station and local supermarket.

There are lots of shops, restaurants and banks nearby and the supermarket chain Zona Sul is well represented in the neighbourhood.

Liked the locality, just a block away from the beach, 
Rio’s largest supermarket chain Zona Sul (to pick up bottled water, milk, bread, fruits etc) is just opposite to the hotel 
 all local buses costing just a R2.75 fare  (511 to Pao de Acucar, 583 to Jardim Botanico/Christo Redentor) as well as airport express 2018 have a stop very close by.
