I want to start by thanking the staff! The stay was really good and we did enjoy staying in copacabana as it made it easy to travel to the turisty stuff. My only concern is the hotel being considered a 4 star I was expecting more… I wouldn’t consider rio othon a 4 star. Other that that no complaints!!

Check in was super slow. Only two people checking guests in at check-in time and each one seemed to take 15 minutes and a couple of walks back and forth to a back office where they typed things in to a computer!? The WiFi was slow and didn’t remember guests after a few minutes which required signing in several times a day. The rooms were dated. You have to walk to the beach to get a towel even if you weren’t going to the beach across the street. Otherwise, our stay was amazing and the breakfast had tons of choices! Can’t beat the location and the views from the top!

The location, the Skylab and roof top swimming pool, the gym (which was undergoing an update), the Wave beach club, the breakfast food selection and especially all members of staff, primarily Joao Alfonso on reception and Carmen who looked after my room. All staff were great and professional at all times and were so helpful and always had a smile on their faces. Please note, some room refurbishment is underway, so a little noisey during the day.

Great location, stunning views and pool area

We arrived to check in at just after noon and there was a huge queue. Check in took 40 minutes but we were able to access our room at that point. The room was very big with a view of the ocean. Sadly the windows provided very little sound proofing and the ‘party’continues all night on Cocacabana Beach. The roof top pool area was divine and we loved spending time relaxing there in the sunshine Sadly at check out we were met with a similarly long queue / wait. It is a big hotel, with more than 500 rooms. More staff are needed on reception at busy times.
