One of the first hotels in the city to be built by the sea, the Copacabana Palace Hotel faithfully reflects the European cultural influence of his time with a sophisticated style of lodging.

Opened in 1923, the hotel became a symbol of Rio, as the favorite of artists, politicians, businessmen and international celebrities and grand receptions.

Protected by Heritage, the Copacabana Palace has facts on his resume of great importance, for example, have provided the backdrop for the film "Flying Down To Rio", where for the first time Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers danced together.

Superbly positioned overlooking the sea, this glamorous Orient-Express landmark in Rio has been welcoming the rich and famous since its Art Deco doors swung open in 1923. Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers danced here and the Rolling Stones tuned up in its grand salon before their concert on the beach.

The magnificent pool, with its adjacent super-cool Bar do Copa, are where Brazil’s style setters gather to soak up the sun. The hotel’s restaurants are also destinations in themselves, whether for great local dishes or fine Italian dining in Hotel Cipriani Restaurant.
