We had many hours after checking out of our room while waiting the airport, and the staff let us continue to use all the hotel amenities, including the incredible pool and view over Copacabana Beach from the sky deck. Six stars out of five! ##### William Stayed 1 night in Jan 2026 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sohrab 28 Nov 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The location is wonderful, the view is incredible, staff are nice, the only problem is some staff cannot speak English which would be problematic sometimes. In iverall I would highly recommed this hotel to all tourists who want to visitt Rio and prefer to be in safe and nice neighberhood. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/4ff12ca9-50bf-46be-80d1-08b819d64f59-1764358468709.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f0a3b304-ffb0-4f8d-b585-469fa064402e-1764358468699.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/533a8e5f-93a1-4482-a715-abff9374a611-1764358468780.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/c6e61dfc-be12-4671-9570-25612302ae9e-1764358468682.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Sohrab Stayed 4 nights in Nov 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rose 3 Oct 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Great hotel, perfect location on the beach.

I recommend the hotel Arpoador to everyone going to Rio. I loved it so much I left another hotel and came back for my last night in Rio.

The food is very good and reasonably priced but the rooms were on the small side. Reasonable value for money given location ##### David Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bradley 3 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 2nd time staying here. It's right on the beach.

Staff is very friendly and helpful. Breakfast is really good. The vibe is very nice. Good amenities. The cons. I didn’t like the smell that came out of the bathrooms near the reception. It’s just next to the elevator and it gives you the impression of lack of higiene. I believe the cost is really elevated for what you get, I had my expectations up ##### viviana Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Natalie 1 Dec 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I was really happy at Arpoador Hotel- beautiful property!
