Hilton Copacabana Rio de Janeiro
Spacious, clean room with nice views. The pool, bar, and views from the rooftop were spectacular. The hotel is a bit dated but, at the same time, gives it charm. Staff accommodated a late 2pm check-out. The breakfast was excellent. An easy walk across the street to the beach.

Grand Hyatt Rio De Janeiro
Hotel is great. Lovely pools. Beach across the road from hotel is lovely. But it’s a 1 hour taxi from Copacabana beach. There is nothing else near the hotel. All hotels / apartments have gated entry.
