"Coming to Rio to work is almost a crime, but staying at the Emiliano makes up for it. This is one of my favorite hotels in the world. The views (if you can get them) of the beautiful Copacabana beach are beautiful. Even when you look to the inside of the room, they make up by a beautiful ambiance: sweet scents, relaxing lighting, and a magical bathtub. A quiet room to get your work done, and a fantastic rooftop pool to wind down. PS - the best thing was always getting the sweetest welcome after a day at work!"

"Location wise, you can't fault this place, but I still felt a bit shortchanged - the lobby wasn't great - and neither was my room! I don't think I got the full hotel experience that business travel gets you. This is a small hotel, just bear that in mind."

"The hotel position is right between Copacabana and Ipanema beaches, the hotel has an outstanding top floor lounging area with a plunge pool and the best view of any hotel I have so far stayed in. The staff are awesome! They are so welcoming and nothing is too much trouble - also I have never seen so many staff. I would only mention Augusto. So helpful and happy to see us The beach facing room was large with all the facilities that anyone could require with a good wide bed but the bedroom carpet was a little tired and in need of either a thorough clean or replacement. The wet room shower and bath area had the water drainage area unfinished and unnecessarily, really ugly but everything worked efficiently The Toto Japanese toilet was great!!!! Food in the restaurant was nicely presented but pretentious and tended to be expensive However, all in all, a lovely stay"
