The hype
Staff are incredible and the location is perfect, but the hardware is tired and needs a full renovation.
Jw Marriott Hotel Rio De Janeiro
$170-350/ nuit
Réservez si You want the safety and reliability of a US brand right in the center of Copacabana's action, but don't mind 2000s-era decor.
Pourquoi les gens l'adorent
- Unbeatable location directly across from Copacabana Beach (Posto 4)
- Rooftop pool deck offers one of the best free views in Rio
- Secure, familiar base for first-timers in Brazil
En bref : A safe, solid, but undeniably dated fortress that trades modern style for a killer address.
Évalué par @cvvergara1 : I stayed here solo and honestly, that ocean view from my room was worth the entire trip. The rooftop pool at night became my go-to sanctuary. It feels properly upscale but still relaxed enough to just chill in a bathrobe. 10/10 would book again.
Ce que les clients qui ont séjourné ici ont dit
Reality check
You are paying for the 'JW' brand safety net and the view, not for luxury interiors.
- You are a Marriott Bonvoy loyalist chasing status/points
- You are nervous about safety and want a secure, guarded property
- You plan to spend all day at the beach and just need a reliable bed
Propreté et entretien
7.8
- Housekeeping: Generally reliable daily service, but reports of missed dust in corners and worn carpets.
- Bathroom hygiene: Clean but dated. Grout is old, and tubs can be slippery. Some complaints of musty smells in AC units.
- Maintenance: Showing its age. Peeling wallpaper and scuffed furniture are common. Elevators are creaky.
- Linens & towels: Standard Marriott white linens. Crisp but not luxurious. Towels can feel a bit thin.
- Odors & scents: Lobby smells of signature Marriott perfume; atrium rooms can smell stale or damp due to lack of airflow.

Avant de réserver
Bon à savoir
- The hotel provides chairs, umbrellas, and towels at their dedicated beach station across the street

- Uber is the safest way to get around at night; do not walk on the beach after dark

- Havaianas (flip-flops) — wear them everywhere, even to breakfast
Génie des chambres
Meilleurs choix
- Ocean View King (High Floor) — essential for the view and reduced street noise
- Griffin Club rooms — access to the 9th-floor lounge is worth it for the free water/snacks alone
Chambres à éviter
- Atrium View rooms — dark, cave-like, and zero privacy
- Rooms near the elevator bank — noisy foot traffic
Génie de demande de chambre – copier & coller
“I am traveling for a special occasion and strictly require a room with an external view. Please do not assign an Atrium/Internal view room. High floor preferred to minimize Avenida Atlântica noise.”
FAQ et astuces cachées
Tout ce que vous voulez vraiment savoir avant de réserver.
Is the area safe?
Copacabana is generally safe by day, but pickpocketing is common. The hotel entrance is heavily guarded. Avoid wearing jewelry or using your phone curbside.
Is breakfast included?
Not standard. It costs ~$21 USD/person unless you have Platinum+ status or book a specific rate. The buffet at The Carioca is excellent.
Does the hotel have a lounge?
Yes, the Griffin Club on the 9th floor. Open to Platinum elites and above. Offers breakfast, evening hors d'oeuvres, and free drinks.
Is the pool heated?
Yes, the rooftop pool is heated, which is rare in Rio and great for cooler winter evenings.
Can I bring guests to the room?
Strictly monitored. All guests must be registered at the front desk with ID due to local security laws.
How bad are the atrium rooms?
Bad. They feel like inside cabins on a cruise ship. Only book if you plan to sleep 12 hours and leave immediately.
Conseils d'initiés
- ✨
The 'Soul Space' off the lobby has bird's nest hanging chairs that are great for a quiet call or photo.
- ✨
Use the side exit on the ground floor for a slightly more discreet entry/exit than the main revolving doors.
- ✨
The rooftop food truck (Moonlounge) often has better casual bites than the main restaurant.
5 choses à savoir avant de partir
💡The elevators are painfully slow during breakfast hours.
💡The 'Ocean View' windows are tinted, so your photos might look a bit darker than reality.
💡You can hear the lobby piano music from the hallways of the lower atrium rooms.
💡The gym has a surprisingly good view of the beach—better than many guest rooms.
💡Security will check your key card every time you enter the elevators, which is annoying but reassuring.
