What guests think

Arena Copacabana Hotel stands out for its beachfront location and sweeping views, with many guests praising friendly staff, clean rooms, and a good breakfast, while others note compact or noisy rooms, dated bathrooms, and surprise charges for minibar water.

Facilities feel mixed: the pool and gym are small and some periods saw areas closed for renovations, while there are no in-room irons or beach chairs/umbrellas. Wi-Fi reliability varies, and several guests reported slow or disorganized check-ins. Overall, expect a well-located, view-driven stay with friendly service and straightforward comforts rather than expansive amenities.

This hotel is ideally located on Copacabana beach. It is modern in design. The staff were very friendly and helpful. However, there were no iron or ironing boards! This was a complete surprise as despite being a seasoned traveller, I have never come across this, certainly not in a hotel of this calibre. Also, in the room, the coffee facilities were there, but the pods were chargeable! When you are paying to stay in a suite, I would have expected them to be free.

Wir mussten am Ankunftstag das Zimmer wechseln, da es in dem Zimmer total modrig gerochen hat. Wir haben dann ein Zimmer weiter oben erhalten das ganz okay war. Leider ist der Aufzug so laut, dass man denkt, ein Zug bremst neben dem Bett. Zudem ist auch die Klimaanlage. Obwohl sie ausgeschalten ist sehr laut. Wenn man die Klimaanlage einschaltet, stinkt es sehr modrig und nach alten Wasser. Leider sind auch die Hotelgäste sehr laut und hauen in der Nacht die Türen zu. Ich persönlich würde das Hotel nicht noch mal buchen würde es jetzt auch nicht weiterempfehlen. Die Lage ist perfekt, da ist genau in der Copacabana liegt

Lugar sujo. Ao entrar no quarto, tive quebsair por que usaram umbproduto de limpeza fedorento e EXTREMAMENTE forte. Em q minuto la denteo, com a janela aberta e ar condicionado ligado....minha garganta começou à incomodar . Falei com a recepcao e ele disse que ia ver obque poderia ser feito e que nao tinha outro apartamento para me oferecer. Foi uma noite super dificil. Dormi com a janela aberta e o barulho era muito alto. Fiquei no terceiro andar. Voltei horas depois e o cheiro continuava forte. Nao sei se algo foi feito. Muitos fios de cabelos no chão e tinha na cama também. Roupa de cama e de banho super velho. As toalhas era de dar nojo e parecia lixa...sem falar do cheiro fortissimo de agua sanitária nelas. Depois desta teiate experiencia, só reservo hotel por apenas 1 noite. Se o hotel for bom, eu fico ...se for ruim, eu arranjo outro lugar. Foi triste por que ja me hospedei no Arena Leme e foi uma experiencia maravilhosa...so que desta vez, eu quis ficar em Copacabana. Arena Copacabana, nunca mais.

Great location. Ok, so this property is not the Four Seasons, but it is in a great location. The windows are floor to ceiling. I had a corner room with an amazing view, but extended a few days and had to move - the view was still good. A/C is not perfect. Breakfast buffet was very good. Restaurant for dinner was spotty with some dishes good, and others just barely average. Rooftop terrace has amazing views of Copacabana. I would stay here again. Staff was very nice and helpful. Many restaurants in the area, and a grocery store one street away.

The hotel was clean and comfortable, if a little basic in some places. The roof area was nice and clean and had great views of the Copacabana beach and Christ the Redeemer. If the rooms end in 01 to 04 then you have a restricted view of the ocean. Rooms 05 to 09 have sea views. Rooms ending with 10 or 11 face internally into the building. We were unfortunate to be in room 1311 which is next to the elevator and the lifting mechanism so our room was quite noisy from early in the morning which has affected the rating given.

Upon my arrival after a long international flight, I was dismayed to wait over an hour for check-in, which was both inconvenient and unexpected. Despite the wait, I was further disappointed to find that the key card provided to me did not work, forcing me to leave my room and return to the front desk to resolve the issue. Additionally, I encountered problems with the Wi-Fi, which was not coded correctly. This issue caused me to miss an important meeting, adding unnecessary stress to an already exhausting day. These multiple errors significantly impacted my stay and my planned activities. I expected a higher standard of service and efficiency from a reputable establishment like the Arena Hotel.

We are from Australia and we were impressed that all the staff spoke English. The location was amazing and so were the views from the rooftop bar. There was a small gym and pool which we used and we were also able to run along the beach due to the hotel's close proximity. The rooms were spacious, beds very comfortable and quiet. The breakfast had lots of options and the restaurant overlooked the beach. We hope to return! Highly recommend!

We received excellent customer service from Lopes At the reception. He is so knowledgeable, outgoing yet professional at all times which is a huge + for me and obviously passionate about his job. It was clear he had a great amount of pride being one of the faces of his company. Iran was also very thoughtful to us and always had this wonderful smile and demeanor on his face. Michelet was our server at breakfast during our 5 nights stay at Arena Copacabana. He was very courteous, warm, attentive and we loved how he could provide us with outstanding service using his French and English speaking skills. The hotel is right across the beach, you just have to cross the road. The view from our room 806 was offering us a beautiful ocean view. The shower water is running great and we had very hot water. We would definitely stay at this hotel again!

My friend and I, both educators, enjoyed our spring break in Rio at this prime location. Lopes provided great dinner suggestions, and the check-in process was smooth thanks to the cordial young lady who even gave us a key for the hotel restroom. Linhares was exceptional, securing our bags and assisting with directions. William at the bar and breakfast restaurant provided outstanding hospitality, making delicious caipirinhas and even bringing us towels when we dozed off. The breakfast staff were friendly, and the food was varied and tasty. Our room had stunning views of Copacabana, and although there were no balconies, the window allowed for fresh air. We always felt safe, and there were plenty of nearby restaurants to explore. Overall, it was one of our most pleasant hotel stays, and we will definitely return!

El desayuno buffet muy bueno, tienen buen sazón y es variado. El roofgarden con vista muy agradable a la playa, se ve también el pan de azúcar y el Cristo, alberca no la usé porque el agua estaba fría para mi. Me gustó que por cumpleaños dejaron un detalle en la habitación y también me gustó la parte de el desayuno con tematica por hallowen. Quizá el único pero que veo es que nuestra llave de regadera tenía dificultad en la regulación de temperatura.

We had a wonderful stay in Arena Hotel. Great location, just across Copacabana Beach. Has a beautiful view of the Copacabana beach from the rooftop of the hotel where the swimming pool is located too. The room is clean and spacious. Has fridge, T.V. With Portuguese and English channels. Bathroom is good size, clean with toiletries. The staff is friendly and helpful. Breakfast is great and has a quite variety of food. Just disappointed with hotel’s restaurant Otaviano. I ordered my favourite dish Paella but It took 1 hour to serve it. I’m diabetic and almost had hypoglycaemia. It’s not that they were busy. There were only two tables occupied for the entire restaurant at that time. There’s no reason it took that long to serve the food. This is totally unacceptable. Otherwise our stay in Arena hotel was great. We will definitely be back in this hotel but not in the restaurant.
