The historic Copacabana Palace, built in 1923, has been renovated in recent years, retaining the aesthetics of the 1920s while meeting modern demands. The lobby welcomes you with Art Deco marble floors, crystal chandeliers, fine woods, wrought iron railings, and box-shaped leather armchairs. References to the past can be found throughout, while the world-famous Copacabana awaits outside the door. As you stroll between the beach, pool, fitness center, spa, and your luxurious rooms, it's easy to feel at home in this palatial hotel.
At the Copacabana Palace Spa, the wild rhythms of Rio de Janeiro fade into the background as you immerse yourself in the gentle rhythms of relaxation. Choose from a range of tempting rituals featuring aromatic essential oils and soothing raw materials. Work up a sweat in the fitness center or on the tennis court before relaxing on the pool terrace. Of course, it's also important to discover Rio properly: set sail from Guanabara Bay and enjoy the natural beauty of the city from a unique perspective. Visit all the major sights, such as the impressive Museum of the Future, Confeitaria Colombo, the Art Museum, and the iconic São Bento Monastery, in addition to the Christ the Redeemer statue.
All rooms at the Belmond Copacabana Palace are distinctive and feature high ceilings and wood paneling reminiscent of the 1920s. The fluffy duvets, classic wood furniture, and tasteful floral curtains perfectly reflect the Art Deco style. The deluxe rooms feature cozy sitting areas with sofas and chairs, while the huge suites offer a separate living room, a high-end coffee machine, and a large bathtub. Most of the tiled balconies offer views of the city or the deep blue sea.
In addition to the popular Copacabana Piano Bar, three other restaurants await you at the Palace: Cipriani, an upscale Italian restaurant; Pérgula, a more casual Brazilian restaurant with a complimentary breakfast buffet; and Mee, the hotel's Pan-Asian restaurant. Mee in particular will enchant you, as it is the only Pan-Asian restaurant in Rio to have been awarded a Michelin star. Combine exotic specialties with one of 25 imported sakes. Cipriani has also been awarded a Michelin star and serves a successful blend of seasonal, local products and imported Italian delicacies.
