"Anyone who’s anyone has stayed in this gloriously maintained Art Deco landmark, which, despite Copacabana’s general decline, remains a great experience."

"The hotel's neoclassical facade is beautifully maintained and remains a glimmering white. Inside you can find one of the city's largest and most attractive swimming pools."
