Copacabana Mar Hotel

Inexpensive Quiet Close walk to the beach Safe neighborhood Free breakfast Helpful staff Newly renovated lobby Nice rooftop view

The key to unlock the door has a huge keychain Paid extra to use the room safe Only a few of the staff speak English The elevators are slow Not allowed to have visitors Power to the room shuts off when you leave so you can't charge your phone while your out Room windows don't lock Found a cockroach in the room

Location was excellent

Rooms at the street side are very very noisy. We had to change the room.

Location of the hotel is great just back from the beach and the cococabana palace. I however do think Ipanema is a better area and would advise staying there. The breakfast was more than adequate and the fresh orange juice was amazing in the morning. The hotel staff are welcoming and speak good english. I would never go to a hotel like this as a couple unless a young couple looking for cheapest option. This is an adequate hotel for traveling with friends and having single beds in the room.

Its not a 4* as said more like a decent 2 or 3 in the Uk. Its vastly over-priced but then so is every single hotel in Cococabana for what they are. I selected this hotel as looked good location and value for money comparable to other hotels. Its sufficient but just be prepared that its a basic hotel somewhere to simply sleep after being out. One thing I didnt like was paying for the safe.
