Fairmont Rio de Janeiro Copacabana

This is the place to stay in Rio. The location is absolutely perfect, on the edge of Copacabana beach and 5 minutes from Ipanema. We upgraded to receive a balcony facing Copacabana which we highly recommend, it was magical seeing Copacabana and sugar loaf mountain from our balcony. Service is really excellent. Big shout out to a number of concierge specialists including Lionel and the fantastic Maurice. Live music in the evening was also fantastic.

Second time here, and once again great hotel. The facilities are top, the room great, and overall a great experience. The Gold Lounge staff keeps being the reference in this hotel for customer service - everyone there is top notch

Perfectly situated on the edge of Copacabana and Ipanema, the views are absolutely stunning. We had a King Ocean View room and woke up to views of Sugarloaf. The rooms are very spacious and the bed incredibly comfortable, all kept very clean and tidy by housekeeping (thanks Maria and team). Indeed what really makes the place is the staff; exceptionally friendly and helpful with a special mention to Luceanne, a concierge who arranged trips, helped us plan our days and was just a general all round star. Just excellent as was Alfredo and the team on the door and the rest of the staff, just too many to mention individually! General facilities were excellent.

the location, pool area and amenities

The staff was extremely nice, helpful and caring. They texted us everyday on what's app with updates on weather and information but also to check on us, book activities. The location is perfect, right on Copacabana beach where all the magic happens. Very safe with security everywhere
