"I reserved a room at this property for two nights based on its high customer rating and property descriptions. We arrived at the property around 9pm. The first thing we noticed was tiny black flies everywhere in the room. The bathroom is very small and the sink was leaking water beneath it. The shower water was small in volume. We stayed there for one night and notified Expedia immediately next morning about the room condition and checked out as soon as we could based on Expedia representative's...

Top Botafogo Hotel Reviews

Royal Rio Palace Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"helpful and friendly staff"

Othon Palace Copacabana Rio

8/10 Good

"Great Copacabana location and very polite staff. Good breakfast options. Magnificant view of the beach! Rooftop offers beautiful views and nice bar and pool. Beach amenities are good - polite staff there as well, and beach is just accross the street - very convenient. Strangelly, hotel’s coffee machine in the room could not be plugged into a room socket without adapter.. shower only had top head and not the flexible one. Water in the shower was berely warm, even if I waited for 10 minutes, no hot water. Only 1 small bottle of water offered in the room free of charge and only on the arrival day. Wifi not working. No soundproof rooms, child in the next room crying through the night sounded like it was next to me. Floor carpet was very visibly stained in the entire room. Balcony doors could not close fully to block noise from the street…"

Miramar by Windsor Copacabana

10/10 Excellent

"We were extremely pleased with the service and amenities at the Miramar. We arrived extremely early as a result of coming from a cruise, and they accommodated us as soon as possible with an early check-in and an upgrade. The room was very attractive and well appointed. We had an ocean view on a lower floor, which pleased us, as we could enjoy seeing all the activity on Copacabana Beach. We ate dinner in their restaurant several times and found the food to be quite delicious, and we enjoyed the menu at the pool bar as well. The staff was very accommodating when my illness forced us to cancel our flight and extend our stay, and they did their best to make arrangements, even though the hotel was sold out. I strongly recommend this hotel for its very convenient and attractive location, for the superior staff, and for the most appealing and comfortable rooms."
