A very good choice, clean (they clean and they change towers every day), the breakfast is big with many options. the personal is polite and helpfull. at the copacabana. the room we have is big with great view at the beach.

they block the money for the stay via booking and at the check in they ask me to pay again via POS so they release the money from the charge of booking. they say to me that after the check-out they will release the first charge. the result is that in my bank account i have two charges for one month after the checkout. i waiting one month to see my money back in my bank account. MESSAGE FOR THE HOTEL-please dont do that to your costumers , its not fare. take the money from booking.

The location of the hotel is perfect. Waking up to beautiful sunrises was amazing. Reception staff was super helpful with tour bookings and other information. The rooms are spacious and clean. Breakfast was good with heaps of options.

The hotel is getting a bit tired.

The hotel is very good, great location. The breakfast is very good, a lot of varieties. The staff is very helpful and friendly.

Don't accept to get the rooms 1301 through 1304, unless you are a heavy sleeper.... The rooms are under the terrace/pool and the staff start moving chairs and sofas at 06:30 am!

The location

The towels is nasty and smelly.

I was sceptical when booking this hotel because some of the negative reviews. Having stayed here for a week I can conclude those are from people expecting a 5 star experience, when paying a 3 star hotel price to stay in a very solid 4 star hotel. The service is exceptional, from the reception staff, which were some of the best I've dealt with, to the group taking care of breakfast and room service, all were very accommodating to special requests. The location is perfect, you cross the street and are on the beach, just behind there is the boulevard with multiple grocery stores, bus stops.. The rooms do look exactly as on the pictures, 90s style retro design ;) But overall very well maintained and all amenities provided. There is a fridge in each room and strong Aircon. My room window was a few meters away from the next buildings wall but that is also noted when booking, and with the great views from the rooftop the price for sea view was not worth for me, especially as the drapes are on to keep the sun out most of the time. The rooftop pool is quiet at night as well, not a party bar as it's not s party hotel, mostly families and young couples, they have all possible drinks from tea to cocktails and the best sunset views. You get a free beach chair from the barrack right opposite the hotel on the beach and an umbrella for 10reals if youd want. Overall, I'd rate this hotel as Exceptional considering the value for money.

Located in the heart of one of the most famous beaches in the world, the hotel Astoria Palace is worth every single penny. The view from it is stunning and the fact that there is a pool allowed us to sunbathe and swim without having to worry about belongings or anything like that. The staff was really friendly, breakfast was great, the room was neat and the shower was a waterfall! There are several great restaurants nearby, and the region is relatively safe. Oh, I also loved the late check out! Instead of having to hurry in the morning, we had time to have breakfast, go for a swim, sunbathe, shower and pack and then checked out. So I could not recommend this place more.

Location is really good and the staff is overall friendly. The breakfast is decent and has what you would expect from a Brazilian hotel at the price charged, so good food with ok to good quality/variety.

Some small changes would make the perception of the hotel room to be good. 1- clean the shades/curtains (they were really dirty, specially the blackout ones); 2- clean the piece that removes steam from the bathroom (it was also full of dust). The rest, it is a matter of just being old and probably expensive to replace (like the white equipments such as telephone that are totally yellow), so secondary, but the cleaning ones should be achievable with little effort.

All the staff was very nice, although some of them didn't seem comfortable speaking English. The hotel looks nice in the common areas and the room as well. I could see the Christ Redeemer from my window! The shower was good and the pillows and the mattress were rather comfortable. The location was super good, close to the beach, to many shops and restaurants and to the metro. The pool in the last floor is also something that adds value to the experience, including the beautiful view you have from the rooftop. The hotel offers free towels for the pool and chairs and umbrella for you to use on the beach. The breakfast was simple and repetitive but good enough at the same time

When I arrived to my room I could feel dust on the floor. During my stay part of the furniture deteriorated, as if it has been poorly refurbished. The rooms are poorly insulated and you can hear noise of water flowing inside the pipes, people opening and closing doors of their room or of the elevator.

You step out of the hotel and cross the street to the beautiful Copacabana beach. 3 hotels over is the Copabana Palace which is also beautiful to look at if you like architecture. It was wonderful. Beds were comfy. Place was clean. View was awesome. Also, there is another hotel with treat included the name Astoria that is a couple blocks off of the beach. Just make sure you GPS sends you to Astoria Palace. Great showers as well.

Don’t expect to enjoy much of a pool, it’s the size of a hot tub.

- great location on the Copacabana seafront - large room and comfortable bed - rooftop pool and space to relax

- the bath / shower combination was a bit odd and dated - the hot tub wasn’t working and the pool staff wouldn’t give us towels for some reason despite everyone else seeming to have them - breakfast was a bit manic as it’s a small space for lots of people
