Hilton Copacabana Rio de Janeiro

10/10 Excellent
"Staff was extremely helpful. Hotel is very conveniently located. Easy to get to the beach and enjoy. Hotel restaurants were very good. Plus lots of restaurants and stores right around the hotel. Definitely want to return and would recommend anyone to stay."

Royal Rio Palace Hotel

8/10 Good
"Staying in this hotel was a good decision. Very good location, helped us to arrive to all points of interest in Rio Janeiro very fast, most of the time walkable distance, or with very low taxi expenses. Personal very kind and ready to help. Complimentary breakfast very nice with good options, just little crowded so make sure to arrive in time. The restaurant area, because so crowded, missed little bit more cleaning. Rooms were comfortable and pretty clean, with some minor damages like the door of the bathroom not able to close, but in general in pretty good conditions. The hotel also has a parking lot next to it, very convenient for us that rented a car to go to Arraial do Cabo. I definitely recommend the hotel."
