You should still avoid the standard rooms, which are smaller and face the back of the building.

"Set in a handsome, white building overlooking Copacabana beach, the Olinda Othon is indeed a classic."

Time Out
"Located on the Copacabana beachfront, the Othon classic has something of a boutique feel not found in many of its local competitors."

"The only budget-priced oceanfront hotel in Ipanema, the Arpoador Inn enjoys a privileged location on a quiet stretch of beach popular with the surf crowd."

"With six floors, this 1970s-era budget hotel has just palm trees and a cobbled, local-traffic road between it and Arpoador Beach."

"Charmingly located right on the sand, this little tower block offers functional and basic rooms and facilities."
Time Out
"Billing itself as the only hotel from Leme to Leblon located right on the beach... here you step more or less right out of the lobby onto the golden sands of Arpoador."

"At sunset the view from the landmark rock that juts out into the ocean at the end of the beach is one of Rio's most beautiful."
