Rio Othon Palace

Location was perfect, we booked a suite with a sew view which I would strongly recommend as you get such an incredible view of the Copacobana beach at sunrise but you also get a lovely view at nigjt when the the whole area is lit up. Othon is significantly taller than the other hotels on the beachfront and this meant you get a wonderful view on the rooftop where they have a lovely infinity pool. The bed was huge and so comfortable, which made that extra difference for us. The room also had a 42 inch TV with netflix, amazon prime etc which was great for any lazy time in.

Although the first room we were given fell far below our expectations (dirty old bathroom and stained carpet), from the second night we were given a room on a higher floor that was evidently much more recently renovated. The bathroom was beautiful and the bed very comfortable. Also, loved having access to the vip reception (where the staff were super friendly and helpful) as well as breakfast on the 30th floor, by booking a super deluxe sea view room. I would recommend it!

The staff is friendly and welcoming. The breakfast buffet is amazing! The location is perfect for being close to the beach and close to pretty much anything you’d want or need for a few days. The room (deluxe sea view) was spacious and clean. The sunrises are beautiful! The rooftop and pool area is also exquisite! All things considered, it was a great room with a great stay and at a very fair price.

Location, breakfast, comfortable room and great view, reasonably quiet overnight (given location). Staff very helpful and knowledgeable. Excursions available from hotel front steps.

The room was fine, big but a older compared to the swimming pool and breakfast area, which obviously have been renewed recently. These were really really beautiful though!! The pool is absolutely amazing and the breakfast is really good and in a lovely room. The only thing about the pool was that it could get overcrowded with people and little kids so it was really loud at times which kind of takes the relaxing part out of it. Since you do pay quite a lot of money for one night it’s something they should work on. Overall we had a really good stay and I would definitely recommend.
