Solo Traveler meets Copacabana
The location of the hotel is great, literally right across the street from Copacabana beach. The downfall is that the area is not the safest as a solo traveler safety is something that is important to me. The hotel itself is not what I expected from photos or previous reviews. The hotel is older and you can tell. The room was outdated and not very clean. However, the view from room was amazing. For the price they charge I would have expected more. The complimentary breakfast was ok nothing over the top. The rooftop pool is small and the gym is small as well.

I was extremely disappointed how I made paid an additional fee for breakfast, my stay was 6 days out of which I had breakfast 3 times. On 2 of my visits I realized that the food was not being replenished and finished fast due to amount of guest. I asked for eggs n they refused to accommodate me n my daughter by saying they were out of eggs. There was no orange juice the staff at the restaurants did not do anything. I had to place a complaint at the front desk and thanks to them they gave the order to the restaurant to give us wanted.
Also on day of checkin we arrived at 8 am to the hotel, I requested for an early check in, I would have gladly paid bc I had been traveling overnight, they couldn’t accommodate I requested breakfast and they said I had to pay for it since my reservation was starting after 2 PM and technically I had missed breakfast. So I paid for the breakfast which I felt was not called for and poor customer service as it turned out they didn’t have our rooms ready till after 2:45 PM.
I do wanna complement the people at the front desk and Security especially Felipe for doing an awesome job.
The restaurant food was not the greatest.
There was no housekeeping on our last day, housekeeping never refilled the soap dispensers.

Perfect stay at Copacabana
My wife and I stayed at the Arena Copacabana hotel (Suite, Sea View) for two nights in October 2024. The location is perfect, and the hotel is very modern. The Suite we stayed in was spacious and had everything we needed. We really enjoyed waking up to the wonderful view of the Copacabana every morning; the view is worth the additional cost! The breakfast was good, with lots of choices but not very exciting. There are lots of restaurants and stores nearby, especially the streets at the back of the hotel; the streets do get a little sketchy the further away you move from the beach. The hotel personnel were all very friendly and helpful, and we were able to get a late check-out without any bother. All-in-all, a great place to stay.

The interior of the hotel room was a bit run down (not like-new as advertised). 350ml water bottles in the room were charged for about 10 real a bottle, which I think is a bit too pricey. AC seemed to make a lot of noise which was annoying when I tried to get some sleep. Everything else was good, including the breakfast, daily maintenance and staff friendliness and services.
