This hotel is patently the worst I’ve seen in a long time. The rooms were moldy, and one of the guests in our party was highly allergic - the hotel staff denied the issue completely, refused to provide new rooms, then asked us to leave the hotel. They also didn’t send taxis to pick up our party despite our pre booking them, leaving people stranded at the airport. I’ve used Expedia for a while and was amazed by the photos and reviews, however my experience should be a cautionary tale. The hotel refused to refund the rooms, the staff became hostile to our party, and we were forced to book elsewhere taking a loss on this reservation. Expedia defers all refunds to the hotel, so expect to get screwed by both parties

Loved our stay at the Arena Copacabana! We had a double room with a view of the beach. The room was very clean, large, and the bed was comfortable. Staff on front desk, rooftop bar and restaurant very efficient, friendly and helpful. Breakfast was very good. Hotel is directly across the street from the beach. I felt very safe here and would definitely stay again.

Booked the sea view suite king bed which said sleeps 3 people. On arrival the front desk Veronica told me it could only be 2 adults and a child only. My sister was only staying the night we had come from São Paulo so I didn’t see the big deal if it didn’t say that online. The manger Jose came and o showed him the booking. He tried to be accommodating but this girl Veronica kept speaking in Portuguese insisting that we shouldn’t be allowed. Asked to upgrade to a different suite and couldn’t. We had to book a separate room for one night. And the next day I saw 3 people checking out of a double room. Isn’t a kind bed the biggest?? YouTube wasn’t working was told we’d have to call the next morning for maintenance. Breakfast buffet same thing pretty much everyday. Go early 7am we went around 9 one day it was crowded people coughing all over everything. 2 smalll elevators: room was nice ocean view. Beach was right across the street. Rooftop pool was small calamari was hard nothing exciting about their menu. They do have room service which my sister liked same as the dinner menu. Nothing really extraordinary about this place the view and beach is what you pay for

The hotel is nice and welcoming, with great safety and security. However, the downside is the noise—you can hear sounds from other rooms, like footsteps or even snoring.

I liked the restaurant on the property. The proximity to the beach and room cleanliness and the staff. Can't say there was much I didn't like but the gym was rather small. Thats pretty much the only thing for me.
