I stayed here for a few nights mid june 08.The place is well situated right in the middle of Copacobana beach.The hotel was extremely clean.The breakfast included was very nice and the dining room was of a good standard too.One of the lifts wasn't working,which caused a bit of waiting when several people were going up to their rooms.The terrace... more

This hotel is ideally situated on Copacabana, it could not be better. We did not know which hotel we would be staying in until we arrived. This was the first part of our 'Tour and Stay' package that we booked through First Choice, the second part was to be spent at the Iberostar Bahia. We had to wait a couple... more

We ended up with twin beds in a rather small room, but it had everything we wanted from a room - it was clean & quiet. There were quite a few people on our tour who didnt get their room until 6 hours later! The breakfast area was quite small and the breakfast had a small selection to choose from.... more

We had a sea view, although the room was small, everything was clean & wonderful maid service, all the staff were very helpful & friendly, especially the young woman on reception. She gave us tips & assistance. The current chef produced the best bacon & scrambled eggs I have tasted for a long time, the buffet breakfast was great, but... more

Went to this hotel with my wife and 12-yr-old daughter. We all enjoyed it very much.. The location is very good, only two doors down from the famous Copacabana Palace. The breakfast is great, and the staff is very friendly, albeit with very limited command of English language. more

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay at the Astoria Palace. Its spotlessly clean, staff are friendly & helpful and its in a good location. We stayed for 4 nights and then came back for 1 night at the end of our trip so was in 2 different rooms, 1st was a standard room which had a double bed... more

Splendid hotel. Modern, fresh and spotlessly clean. Simply a step across the road onto the beach. Unlike most commentators, we had absolutely NO bad experiences in Rio. Booked for 2 nights stayed for 4. Marcel at the front desk was particularly nice to us. Roof-top pool sun heated, so cool, but perfect for dipping in. Views of copacobana, and Christ... more

This hotel is nicely situated right across from the beach. The staff is friendly, and the free breakfast buffet in the morning was pretty good. The rooms were somewhat clean, though when it rained heavily, there was some water leaking into the room from the windows. This didn't affect anything too bad, but if we had anything on the windowsill,... more

Hotel nicely located next to the beach but for sure no way a 4 hotel star hotel in terms of equipment/service and in the low range for a 3 stars. Starting on the positive side as it will be shorter, the breakfast seems to be the best experience in the hotel. Really nice buffet with a lot of variety of... more
