Hotel Emiliano, Rio De Janeiro
Expert reviews
“A welcome new opening and pace on Rio’s Zona Sul. It’s more subtle and modern to contrast the go-go party scene of the Fasano, yet without the sometimes stiffness of the Copacabana Palace. It feels young and sophisticated.”
Featured in CN Traveler’s 2018 Hot List
“The arrival of São Paulo’s Emiliano brand to the Copacabana district of Rio justifiably caused quite the buzz among locals, bringing an edge to rival the sharp boutiques of neighbouring Ipanema. Built for purpose, Emiliano not only has universal appeal, but updates Copacabana’s magic of yore with flair.”

Once in a lifetime trip that would not have been nearly as memorable had we stayed elsewhere.
The service was the best we have ever experienced. Every member of staff was so kind and friendly. The concierge went above and beyond to recommend, organize, book, and even pick-up things for us from outside of the hotel. We were there for my birthday and all of the staff made it so special, the housekeeping even did a little surprise setup in the room with bath salts & oils, flower petals, candles, and a cake. We also received delectable bite-sized treats in our room every evening with the turn down service. Not to mention the views/vibes at the rooftop pool/restaurant/bar which are unbeatable.

fantastic staff but rooms need some TLC
The staff here are so welcoming, friendly and helpful!
The rooms are tired. Ours had a chipped basin, walls grubby and the room was just very worn (not like the photos). the are much nicer areas in the city other than Copacabana.

Best Hotel in Copacabana/Ipanema
Best hotel in Copacabana/Ipanema hands down. Very attentive staff, amazing pool with a good vibe, amazing restaurant Emile and great amenities in the room. The Hawaianas flipflops as a welcome gift were a really cool touch.

the staff were all fantastic, very friendly and went out of their way to assist and help us.
the hotel had everything we needed, from a fantastic gym overlooking Rio with the sugar loaf in view, lovely restaurant with beautiful living wall surrounding, to spacious bedrooms and the rooftop pool.

Definitely one of the best hotels in Rio, if not the best
The architecture, the rooms, the pool, the beach, the restaurant, the location, and definitely the staff who are very helpful, aware of everything, and attentive to the smallest details … everything is just perfect
My only concern is that the hotel is too expensive for everything to be charged for an extra fee … and the extra charges are not cheap … the water in the room is for a charge if you order it, the coffee capsules are for R$9 each, the breakfast is not included and it’s very pricy with an average of R$130++ per person

Fabulous
Location and infrastructure were awesome. Views are exceptional. Breakfast very good.
Service. Most of the time, it took a long time to get whatever I asked for, especially in the pool. Not unusual to have service forget about what you ordered.

This is a great hotel in Copacabana, not inexpensive, but the money was well spend.
The staffs are very friendly, informative and accommodating. I think the ocean view room, probably has one of the best view of Copacabana and Sugar loft. The location is great, you are in Copacabana, with hotel’s service tent on the beach and Ipanema is only 10-15 minutes easy walk from the hotel. The hotel is very clean with modern airy atmosphere. There are a gym, a sun deck, a pool, a sauna. The Emilia restaurant is great both service and food. Also many restaurants near by.
You get what you pay for😅.

very good hotel but not detailed oriented as I was expecting
The staff is nice and friendly. The pool is beautiful even though it is tiny. The location is good in case you need to have meetings in the city centre.
I stayed in a room that has no view. The window was towards another building and the room has little light. The pool is very small. There’s a lack of light in the bathroom too. The service at breakfast is slow and today I left without having the two boiled eggs I’ve asked and paid for. For the price this hotel costs its staff should be more detailed oriented.
