Emiliano Rio

Emiliano Rio enjoys one of the city’s most coveted locations, right on Copacabana Beach. Contemporary and cool, it embodies the laidback vibes of this world-famous city and injects a modern freshness into the hotel scene. The retractable panels on its exterior catch your eye on the approach, and mark it out as one of the trendiest luxury hotels in Rio de Janeiro.

There are 90 suites and apartments, many of which have balconies and beautiful ocean views. Decor is simple and elegant, the light bright colour scheme perfect for enhancing the blue skies and golden sands that surround the hotel.

Its walls decked out in vertical gardens, Emile Restaurant specialises in carioca cuisine, using local, small scale producers to showcase the best of the city. Sip a cocktail at the Emile Bar then head up to the rooftop for light, healthy bites and a dip in the beautiful swimming pool that looks out over Copacabana.

There is an incredible spa located on the 11th floor offering a range of revitalising treatments as well as space to simply unwind and relax. As well as that sought-after proximity to Copacabana beach, it’s also within walking distance of Ipanema beach, giving you a prime choice of sand-side relaxation spots to soak up the Rio de Janeiro sun with a caipirinha in hand.
