Rio de Janeiro, Rio de Janeiro State hotel rooms at the Independent

"Staff were great! Restaurants were very good (all three) Overhead shower handle was broken, sink clogged on my last day, and rubber stripping was falling off the balcony sliding door, but I let them know when I checked out. Also, maid accidentally skipped my room on my last full day so I had to call Guest Services."

"its and old Hotel, but its very close to everything, great location."

"The spa was great and worth the visit for the services offered. I had an excellent view from my room of the beach and mounds. "

"I want to sincerely thank Copacabana for their understanding and support. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to board my flight because I didn’t have the required visa to enter Brazil — a last-minute issue that completely changed my plans. Despite this, they accepted my refund request without any hassle, and I truly appreciate the fairness and professionalism shown. It’s rare to find that kind of customer care these days. Although I couldn’t make it this time, I’m definitely looking forward to booking my stay with them on my next trip to Brazil. Kudos to the team for being so considerate — you’ve earned my loyalty!"

"Clean, safe and excellent breakfast "

" My husband and I stayed at this hotel for 11 days, and we absolutely loved it! From the moment we arrived, the service was outstanding. Luis and Alex at the front desk were incredibly helpful and welcoming. I had a small issue with our original room, and Luis went above and beyond by moving us to a larger room with a better view—at no extra cost! Leo and Juan, our servers, were total sweethearts and made our mornings extra special. And the breakfast… OMG—so delicious, fresh, and beautifully served! Our room was always spotless, thanks to the amazing cleaning staff who came every day and made sure everything was clean and tidy. The location was perfect—close to everything we needed and with easy access to all the main tourist attractions. We’re so happy we chose this hotel and would definitely stay here again! "

"Good hotel and good price "
