Grand Hyatt Rio De Janeiro
Hotel is great. Lovely pools. Beach across the road from hotel is lovely. But it’s a 1 hour taxi from Copacabana beach. There is nothing else near the hotel. All hotels / apartments have gated entry.

Hilton Barra Rio De Janeiro
The service was AMAZING! The staff were so welcoming and caring and I definitely would come back! A bit far from most activites and famous spots such as ipanema and Copacobana but still a nice place to stay.

ibis budget Rio de Janeiro Nova America
Hotel was ok, breakfast was average, staff don’t speak English and a bit unhelpful. Room is tiny. Best part of this hotel is location next to shopping centre.
