Rio de Janeiro Hotel Guide - Morro da Urca hotels in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

"We've stayed at many Rio hotels over the years, and unfortunately hotels in this world-class destination can often seem indifferent. They tend to be dated, not perfectly kept up, in need of cleaning, noisy, or with half-hearted service, a classic Rio complaint. Arena Leme was different. Everything crisp, new, clean, well maintained up. Service attentive and courteous. No need to even mention the fabulous views and location in the quietest corner of Copacabana /Leme beach, which still means it's buzzing with activity. Well done, Arena. "

"We loved our stay here! The hotel itself could use a few aesthetic updates, but the service truly made it special. Marcos and Rafael went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and cared for. The location was perfect—close to everything (beach, Sugarloaf, RioSul, and more). The food was great, and the spa massages were amazing. We’ll definitely be back!"

"The property is on the beach. We had an ocean front room with balcony and it was fabulous. Special kudos to the Staff. They were wonderful. Dedicated and friendly. We always felt taken care of. "

"its and old Hotel, but its very close to everything, great location."

"The location was AMAZING!"

"I want to sincerely thank Copacabana for their understanding and support. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to board my flight because I didn’t have the required visa to enter Brazil — a last-minute issue that completely changed my plans. Despite this, they accepted my refund request without any hassle, and I truly appreciate the fairness and professionalism shown. It’s rare to find that kind of customer care these days. Although I couldn’t make it this time, I’m definitely looking forward to booking my stay with them on my next trip to Brazil. Kudos to the team for being so considerate — you’ve earned my loyalty!"

"Las cerraduras de las habitaciones fallaban mucho"

"The location is absolutely lovely – just a short Uber ride to Copacabana, Ipanema, and the Santa Teresa area. The hotel also offers free bikes, which are perfect for a ride to Flamengo Beach. The rooms are small but cute, with big windows and kept very clean. Breakfast was excellent in both quality and variety, and the staff were always friendly and helpful. The highlight is the rooftop – the views are simply amazing."

"A lovely hotel just one block back from the beach. The rooms are spacious and clean. The roof top bar and pool are great. My only slight negative is the staff at the roof top bar weren’t very friendly and I had to go to the bar to order food even though they were just stood around chatting. Reception staff were great. "
