"Between the upmarket neighborhoods of São Conrado and Leblon, this is the only hotel in Rio with a "private" beach."

Choose rooms in the -23 to -26 series for the best ocean views and the peaceful sounds of waves crashing.

"Copacabana’s only boutique hotel has a series of designer suites in a business-like, tall, narrow tower."
