The hotel is excellent. Service from all the staff was excellent. Food in the restaurant was excellent. Great location right across the street from Copacabana beach. View from the rooftop pool/bar is incredible! Great place to spend a few days in Rio. Plus if you want to go to Ipanema beach it is an easy walk of about 5 blocks. There are many restaurants within walking distance. Recommended 100%

The location is good, but this place is definitely not a four star hotel. The staff is not very nice. The pool is has nice views, but it is small and often crowded. I wouldn’t stay here again.

I loved this hotel. Everything was wonderful. Some areas for improvement including the check-in process as well as the absence of any staff on arrival by car outside. One has to go through a small door before we see anyone welcoming you. Also, they should stop charging for in room coffee.

Great boutique hotel in an amazing area. Staff was friendly and very accommodating. Pool area is nice but really small with only a few chairs. Pool food could have been a lot better drinks were good. I had a room with a balcony the room was a great size with ample space to hang clothes and toiletries. The shower temperature and water pressure was perfect. The repairs in the shower must have been done by a blind person. Really poorly done. Overall I would stay again and would recommend to others.

The hotel is clean and staff are prompt and friendly. The view of Copacabana from the room and roof deck are breathtaking. We had a few issues in our bathroom with fixtures coming loose off the wall. We called and they had it fixed immediately. Upon checkout I found it odd they added another room’s bar charge to my room’s bill. When I questioned it at checkout, the front desk associate asked if they, the other room’s guests, were my friends. Was odd to me given the receipt clearly had someone else’s name and room number on it yet the desk somehow was implying I had some responsibility to pay for it. Took a few minutes to clear that up with them.

The Emiliano hotel has a big reputation in Brazil; I knew it from São Paulo, so I stayed in Rio because of that. The hotel is very nice; it was designed by the architect Arthur Casas (whom I'm particularly a fan of), but the hotel operator definitely doesn't live up to the architect's name. The service is much inferior; it almost feels like a 4-star hotel. They have good food, but overall, it's poor service. I booked a relatively ‘cheap’ internal room; we had thought about staying in an Ocean view room, but luckily, we didn't because it cost twice as much. I wouldn't have felt good paying so much money for this hotel, really.

Não recomendo — fui acordado às 4h da manhã!

Minha estadia foi arruinada por um erro grave do hotel. Às 4h da madrugada, a campainha do meu quarto tocou quatro vezes seguidas, me acordando assustado. Perdi completamente o sono e a noite. Após muita insistência por explicações, me informaram que foi o serviço de quarto que errou o número do quarto. Inaceitável. Nunca mais volto e não indico.
