Copacabana Palace

For more than 80 years, the rich, the famous, and the fabulous have been flocking to the Copacabana Palace Hotel in beautiful Rio de Janeiro. This is old-world luxury, Brazilian-style: an imposing beachfront façade that houses every creature comfort, all presented with the kind of dedicated, genuinely friendly service you'd thought was a thing of the past.

Rather than rest on its laurels, the Copacabana has been tirelessly expanding and improving. Since 2005, there are refurbished suites in the Tower Wing, a restored casino now used as ballrooms, and the fresh and fragrant Copacabana Palace Spa.

Tuck into the legendary brunch at Pérgula restaurant, or sip a caipirinha on the poolside terrace as you people-watch on Copacabana beach. Slip into something gorgeous for dinner at the sophisticated Hotel Cipriani restaurant, then dance the night away at the Bar do Copa. It's all part of the experience, and isn't it nice to know your incredibly comfortable bed awaits you just upstairs?

Copacabana Palace is part of Orient-Express and The Leading Hotels of the World
