Miramar by Windsor Copacabana

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful hotel!! This is our second time here. The staff was so friendly and helpful. Great location right in front of the Copacabana beach. The view from our room (lux casal) was absolutely stunning. The room was super spacious and comfortable, the shower and the jacuzzi were wow! And the pool and bar on the roof and the gym - everything is just perfect!! We will definitely come back again."

Fairmont Rio de Janeiro Copacabana

10/10 Excellent

"I had a wonderful stay at the Fairmont Rio de Janeiro Copacabana. From the moment I arrived, the service was excellent. The doormen were always so helpful getting me in and out of the car, which I really appreciated. The restaurant was excellent, and the service there was consistently attentive and professional. I also have to give a special mention to the room service. It was spot on every single time — my orders were always accurate, delivered promptly, and the staff were so friendly, kind, and always arrived with a smile. That really stood out to me during my stay. The hotel and my room were very clean and beautifully maintained. I also had a gorgeous view of the beach, which made the stay feel even more special. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and I slept very well as far as the comfort of the room itself. The only downside was the outside noise. There was quite a bit of street noise, as well as noise coming from the military facility across the street. I realize this really isn’t the hotel’s fault and is simply part of the location, but it is something to be aware of if you are a light sleeper. Overall, I had a very positive experience. The kindness and professionalism of the staff, the excellent service, the food, the cleanliness, the beautiful beach view, and the comfort of the room made my stay very enjoyable. I would absolutely stay at the Fairmont again."

Hotel Nacional Rio de Janeiro OFICIAL

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel was fantastic! Breakfast buffet is elaborate, room service food was very good with 24 hour availability. We arrived at 2am and were able to order from a full menu! Bar cocktails were excellent. Spa was exceptional with reasonable prices! Beach is beautiful and safe. I can’t wait to go back!"

Frequently asked questions

What other neighbourhoods are similar to Penha?

While Penha offers a great experience, other neighbourhoods in Rio de Janeiro State that share some similarities in terms of local flavour and community feel, albeit with their own distinct characteristics, include Santa Teresa and Lapa.

Santa Teresa, perched on a hill above the city centre, is renowned for its narrow, winding streets, historic mansions, and artistic community. It's characterised by its bohemian lifestyle, with numerous art studios, independent shops, and restaurants. The iconic yellow tram, or bondinho, traverses the neighbourhood, offering scenic views as it connects to the city centre. This area is particularly appealing to travellers looking for a more relaxed, culturally rich stay, away from the bustling beaches, and who appreciate exploring on foot.

Lapa, adjacent to Santa Teresa, is famous for its vibrant nightlife and historic architecture, particularly the Arcos da Lapa (Lapa Arches), a Roman-style aqueduct. During the day, it's a bustling commercial area, but at night, it transforms into a hub of music and dancing, especially samba. It has a more urban feel than Santa Teresa, with a mix of historic buildings and modern developments. Lapa is a good fit for travellers who enjoy experiencing local music and socialising, and who appreciate being close to the city's historical landmarks.

When is the best time to go to Penha?

The best time to visit Penha is generally during the drier, cooler months from May to September, though the shoulder seasons of April and October also offer good conditions.

For those looking to avoid the peak heat and humidity, May to September is ideal. Temperatures are more moderate, typically ranging from 15°C to 25°C, and there's less rainfall. This makes it superb for enjoying the outdoor attractions and beaches without the intensity of the summer sun. It's a great time for couples or families who prefer pleasant weather for exploring.

If you're happy with slightly warmer temperatures and don't mind the occasional shower, April and October are excellent shoulder months. The weather is still very agreeable, with temperatures often between 20°C and 30°C, and you might find fewer crowds than during the absolute peak season.

Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?

Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline − this is often within 24 to 48 hours of your scheduled arrival. If you have a non-refundable booking, it might still be possible to receive a refund if you cancel it within 24 hours of booking. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use our 'Fully refundable property' filter during your search to find the right Penha hotel for you.
