Sheraton Grand Rio Hotel & Resort
The staff was welcoming and accommodating. There are multiple different food options. The beach walkout was great. You can literally sit on the beach all day and staff will wait on you. Vendors are on the beach as well.

Hotel Arpoador
The front desk staff was very helpful. It’s in the perfect location in Rio. It’s at the Apex of Ipanema Beach and Copacabana Beach. The rooms were a bit small, but had everything that I needed. I would also recommend a room with a view. The courtyard view is facing another apartment.

Hilton Copacabana Rio de Janeiro
The location is excellent, the staff was very nice, but this hotel does not yet resemble a Hilton.

Hotel Nacional Rio de Janeiro OFICIAL
I had a beautiful ocean view suite. The hotel itself was beautiful. My only complaint was housekeeping. Our room wasn't cleaned for two days. We didn't have clean towels and I had to make several request to bring them. Also the hotel doesn't provide wash clothes so I recommend bringing a loofah.
