I stayed here on a Friday and Saturday night in early May 2009. It was a fine hotel - clean, well-kept, quiet. But nothing special, either. I was with a Portuguese-speaker, so she did all the communicating with the front desk staff, but they seemed very friendly, helpful, and competent. The location of the Princess Copacabana is great - a... more

As a fist time traveler to Rio, I had a great time. I didn’t spend much time in the hotel room but the time I did spend was great. I had a large room with a kitchen and separate bedroom. The front desk attendants spoke English and were very patient with my broken Portuguese. The breakfast every morning was good... more

This hotel was my first one from by Rio/Buenos Aires/Iguazu roundtrip and I really don´t have any very negative points to say about this hotel. The location is ok (just 3 blocks from the Copacabana beach) but as the hotel is very new, the staff at the reception is not the most helpfull and they seemed (at least some of... more

Princess Copacabana is a very good choice for travelers going to RIO! Very well located (2 blocks from Copacabana Beach, near Arpoador, few minuts from Sugar Loaf, Ipanema, Leblon and Downtown), Princess is a new hotel, very clean, with good service, breakefast and rooms. The rates are not expensive if you book the hotel by internet or with a travel... more

This Hotel has a perfect location, in the best area in Copacabana, near to Arpoador. It is located just 2 blocks from the Copacana beach and also 2 blocks of the metro station of Cantagalo, going by taxi, you can arrive in pão de açúcar in 10 minutes, Ipanema, in 5 minutes; downtown and Lapa, 20 minutes. Very clean, good... more

Once past the flashy reception and the ´show´ apartment that we viewed before booking, this place was a real disapointment. The pool was closed for ´maintenance´, not something that was mentioned when we viewed the hotel, but only after we had paid. The steam room, jacuzzi and sauna were only switched-on on request, which meant waiting 2-3 hours for the... more

I have stayed at this property every year since 2003. If I'm not mistaken it openned in November of 2002. It really is a sweet spot. The suites are like studio apartments. They are nice and spacious. They include a stove refridgerator, micro waive, dining table, sofa, and if you have a balcony there is furniture out there as well.... more

I stayed at the Princess Copacabana for 3 days and it was fantastic. The room I had was a suite and the staff was awesome. They gave me directions, restaurants, take out, sites to see, etc. The place was immaculately cleaned everyday and they are one of the few hotels that allow guests without any hassle. I will stay here... more

This was my first of hopefully many trips to Rio. The Princess is immaculate. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable and really makes you feel welcome. The staff keeps an eye out for all comings and goings and makes one feel very safe. The rooms were recently re done and look brand new. Each room is a suite with a sitting... more
