Top 5-Star Hotels in Rio de Janeiro

It was my first time to go to Rio on business, and I booked this hotel. Overall, the transportation location is very good, and the room conditions are also OK. I recommend it! Everyone should pay attention to safety when coming to Rio, and booking here can improve safety.

A wonderful hotel with the perfect location right on Copacabana Beach. The rooftop offers a breathtaking view of the sea. The pool there is perfect for cooling off and makes sunbathing bearable. For places on the beach, the hotel has its own sunbeds with umbrellas. The hotel and its staff provide exceptional service. No wish is neglected. No matter what problem arises, you try to score with a friendly manner and great gestures. The cleanliness in the hotel rooms and in the entire hotel area is very good. The food and drink on offer is delicious and reasonably priced for a 5 star hotel. Thank you for a great stay at this hotel.

The service attitude is very good 👍 It's hygienic and clean, and the environment is beautiful. You don't have to go out to enjoy the sun and the beach. The breakfast is very rich, and the inside and outside courts are very popular.

Massive impressive lobby, but all the seats and armchairs need reupholstering or cleaning, very grubby to sit in. The pool is very small, and the facilities there are quite poor by other hotel in the area. No separate changing rooms or locker room. No showers after gym activities. The bedroom is large, a bit dated in style. No tea or coffee maker, no kettle, no complimentary water, for me, unacceptable in a 5*hotel. The bed is massive but the sheets don’t fit. So we spent twelve nights constantly re making the bed. Very poor sleep as a result. For god sake, make the beds smaller, or the sheets and blankets bigger. Overall we enjoyed our stay, despite these shortcomings. Concierge staff were the most helpful and friendly. Check in staff, not so much. Very cold and aloof.

The hotel is awesome, it is the best hotel in the area, the swimming pool is beautiful, the beach is outside, the room is comfortable and clean, very high-end, the breakfast is a little less

The hotel is quite beautiful, which means I am quite satisfied with it. Especially when there are performances in the evening, it feels lively and has a vacation-like atmosphere. According to the standards of Golden Diamond, I think it is still a bit not good enough. For example, the breakfast restaurant is simple in decoration. The food is scattered and scattered, like a guest house

Overall, I had a great experience with the Park Hotel; staff was incredibly helpful, and the amenities were great. The room was wonderful, clean, and perfect to celebrate a birthday weekend. This was on the top of the list of best stays/experiences ever. Staff was very hospitable and there for every need of mine. Thank you so much.

Amazing hotel - perfect location on Ipanema beach, outstanding service, stunning pool area for sunsets & drinks. Bed quality is beautiful - I had an amazing nights sleep. While the front rooms with ocean view are bigger / better, then courtyard rooms are also good with great air conditioning, bathroom products, etc. 3rd stay here - will stay again!

We stayed here the 2nd time after 12 years. Picked a similar room as we had 1st time: ocean view king suite. It is a bit more expensive than their cheapest rooms, but EXCELLENT value for money. We had room on the 12th floor directly overlooking the waves with two windows. As the hotel and beach is to the south, you get BOTH sunrise and sunset view from your room...see photos attached:) Room is good size, reasonably fresh with only a bit of age and spots here and there. Cleaning is ok, and hotel is in excellent safe area with direct beach access. We much prefer Barra da Tijuca anyway, against the overhyped and crowded, expensive copacabana. But each to his own. Hotel itself (lobby etc) is nice, staff is great, restaurant has very good food. The cocktails of their bar at ground floor as well as by the pool are excellent quality and cheap (as usual in Brazil). HOWEVER... a big however... After booking directly via their ”secure” website, via Amex card, my card details were either sold or re-used by somebody at the hotel staff, as BEFORE our actual trip began, it started being used at various (online?) shops in Sao Paulo, Belo Horizonte and even in Madrid. I had already a 600 euro hit (in some 10 different fraudulous shoppings) before i realized and blocked it. Lucky with Amex's good insurance policy i did not lose money directly on this, nevertheless i ended up with no Amex card on my 2-weeks Brazil trip as oi didnt have the new one yet, and in general it gave a bitter taste to this stay. Because of this i have to reduce the rating. So a word of advice: Book this hotel with confidence, BUT book it via a well-known room broker website, NOT directly thru the Windsor website!

My friend and I each booked at room at Emiliano Rio for the end of June as a pre-tour R&R and celebration of summer break. Our stay there from beginning to end was TOP NOTCH. We both received facials and massages at the spa, took advantage of the sauna and steam rooms, hung out on the rooftop, and went to the restaurant for both dinner and breakfast. Everyone we met who works there were warm and welcoming. They were able to accommodate our early arrival and late departure, which was greatly appreciated. I would highly recommend staying at the Emiliano Rio. The food at the restaurant was delicious, and as we told them we were both celebrating the completion of our PhDs, the restaurant staff even wrote a personalized letter acknowledging the celebration.
