Rio de Janeiro Beach Hotels

The hotel is in a fantastic location -very convenient for getting around. Breakfast was also quite good with a decent selection. However, the room itself was disappointing. It wasn’t particularly clean and clearly needs renovation. The biggest issue was the check-in experience. The staff were unfriendly. The manager made it clear that guests who book through third-party platforms (rather than directly with the hotel) would not be allowed early check-in. Not the warmest welcome. Overall, a convenient place to stay, but the service and room condition leave much to be desired.

The rooms are a bit dated. In my case, we had to request service for the air conditioning system because it was so noisy that I couldn't sleep. The facilities are fine, and the breakfast is basic but comprehensive. Parking is paid separately from your stay.

Location is great, beachfront. Front desk was helpful. Rooftop pool is very small but has a spectacular view. Everything was good except the corridor & the rooms. Corridor is dark. I booked a 28 sq m Superior Room, my fault for not booking a room with a seaview. The room has a tiny window (all the photos of the rooms shown on the website has much bigger windows) & when it’s opened, there was a rotting rubbish smell. All the rooms have dark flooring, dark furnishings & when it’s not brand new, they look seedy & run down. I don’t think a room w/ a seaview would help.

I booked JW Marriott Copacabana because, surprisingly, the price wasn’t much higher than nearby 3–4 star hotels. The location is truly premium, right on Copacabana Beach and the rooftop overlooks the entire beach, which is a huge plus. My room faced the inside of the building, so I had to keep the curtains closed the whole time for privacy, which made the room quite dark. That said, the room itself was spacious, clean, and comfortable. Staff were generally nice, but everything felt quite slow check-in, check-out, room service requests, and even housekeeping. Breakfast was good in quality but exactly the same every day. Getting a table in the morning was also frustratingly slow; at one point around 10 people were waiting, and it took about 10 minutes just to be seated. The rooftop views are amazing, but the design is honestly very awkward and outdated. The pool is at the back with almost no view, when it could easily have been a stunning infinity pool. The bar area felt cheap, and the thick glass panels and wide columns made it hard to enjoy the view or take good photos. The whole rooftop design felt very old-fashioned. Overall, the hotel feels stuck in time. It’s a bit sad, because with such an incredible location, a modern renovation could easily make this one of the best hotels in the world. For the price I paid, I was still satisfied, but it definitely didn’t feel like a true luxury experience.

Great staff and location. However the amenities are poor- no coffee machine in room, no iron, no complementary coffee / tea service at reception. The restaurant is overpriced. The decor is tired and dated.

Good hotel, nice location, amazing view with a really nice roof bar and pool. The breakfast has a great variety of pastries, sweets, cakes, and drinks options. The staff were very friendly, especially Ana in the reception, very attentive and helpful. I would recommend it.

Excellent hotel very well located , with a fantastic rooftop pool with beautiful view , very varied breakfast .

I had a great stay at Hotel Atlântico Rio! They kindly allowed me to check in a few hours early, which made a big difference after a long journey. The staff were warm, helpful, and professional throughout my visit. The breakfast was fresh and satisfying, with plenty of options to start the day right. One of the best parts is the location — just a short walk to Copacabana Beach, perfect for catching the sunrise. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone visiting Rio.

The location is very good, the staff very friendly, and they allow you to leave your luggage for a very small fee. Breakfast was adequate, in line with the room's price, but the room was quite poorly maintained, especially the bathroom. The bottom sheets weren't fitted, so they came off easily. If these issues were addressed, it would be an excellent hotel.

It was all fine. Near the beach Thanks to Vicente, Uanderson, Fernando and Patrick are super-attentional employees.
