Top Zona Sul Hotel Reviews

Othon Palace Copacabana Rio

Othon Palace Copacabana Rio

8/10 Good
"The location was fantastic and incredibly convenient. The staff was incredibly helpful throughout our stay. While the food wasn’t exceptional, it was sufficient to keep us going. The hot tub was a bit chilly, and one of the elevators was out of service for the entire duration of our stay. However, the restaurant, THE WAVE, which is part of the hotel, was truly exceptional. Overall, I would definitely stay here again."
