Brazil
By htho206, 3/31/09
The presence of the super stars attack the world's leading recruitment is not enough to make Brazil the 3 points before host Ecuador. Rather, they must be reputable to the talents of professional Julio Cesar can heal wale Quito field, type in the last World Cup in 2010.

Rolling Stones, What A View
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 3/22/08
Service great from the time we entered the door. Had a great view of the (side)stage for the concert on the beach by the GRBITW. A lot of the crew stayed here and were always friendly. Enjoyed all the people on the street and the hotel staff--even accommodated a street artist coming in the lobby for a portrait sitting. Staff always helpful! Stored x'luggage as we went on to River Plate before returning for Carnival! Would always go back to the Excelsior.

very nice surprise
By laney, 2/29/08
I got such an excellent price in mid February ($110 per night)from a travel agency that I was worried the room would be a dump. It was from it - the room was small, but attractive, quiet and the granite bathroom was a good size. The service in the hotel is excellent and so is the buffet breakfast.

GOOD VALUE
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 2/8/08
Stayed there during Carnival week 2008. Very good location on Copa beach. Breakfast outstanding with many choices of food. Hotel service friendly and efficent. Room average size, but thin walls. Shower very strong. Must be careful of neighborhood, especially on back side of hotel at night. Many fine restaurents close. Pool views and setting very nice. Few chairs on the ocean beach.

Good Location, But Noisy
By Commander X-2, 11/11/07
Pros: The location is perfect, in the center of Copacabana beach. The rooftop patio is a great feature, affording a view of the entire beac, a wading pool, and a bar. Taxis and limos are always available just outside. Don't overlook the private limos. They usually charge a flat fee and their prices are competitive. The free breakfast buffet is very good. Cons: The service was good, but there is a little too much of it. There are just too many people in the lobby. The best service is unobtrusive. I don't want to see service people until I need them. Nobody speaks English except the front desk staff. The room was extremely noisy - like living inside a bass drum, but you don't go to Rio to sleep. ;^) I'm not sure they changed the sheets every day and the beds were not very comfortable. The laundry service was confusing. They didn't appear to know which services they provide. Internet was very expensive. I probably will not repeat due to the noisiness.

Excellent Everything
Excellent location (right in the heart of Copa Cabana), very clean and modernly remodeled, very friendly staff (plus entire staff spoke fluent English). My wife and I were on vacation in Rio, and didn't know where to stay but saw good reviews for this place. They are totally accurate, very nice hotel, and very reasonable considering the level of service, location, etc... We have nothing but good things to say about this hotel. Really added to the whole experience. Brazilians are very friendly, beautiful people. Can't wait to go back!

Very Nice Hotel
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 7/2/07
I spent 3 days in June of 2007 during a business trip. Looking from outside, it was not very impressive. But their room was very nice (not big), and the service was excellent. The (free) breakfast buffet was unbelievable. The lunch and dinner buffet were excellent and each cost only R$45 (Reals) (including tax), which was cheap comparing some not even so good restaurants in that area. I was told their buffet was the best (in the value) in the Copacabana beach area. I believe that. The subway is not far from this hotel (10-min. walk). Many buses pass a street behind this hotel. It is next to the Copacabana Palace Hotel, which everybody knows. So when you are lost, it is easier to mention the Copacabana Palace for help. Internet connection costs extra R$25 (Reals) per 24-hours.

Excelsior-Excellent
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 5/23/07
I have recently returned from 5 days at the Excelsior Copbacabana Hotel in Rio De Janeiro at the end of a round the world trip. Great location ! Great rooms ! Great food ! Great service ! and most importantly Great staff !! What more can you ask for ? Thankyou,everybody there,for making my stay so brilliant. Especially Mauricio on reception who always told me the best places to go to see and as I was travelling alone, made sure I knew when to get a taxi, to get there safely.

We had a wonderful stay here
By tchu_yhoo, 5/26/06
The service was wonderful, very helpful and attentive. Great breakfast buffet. Nice room, but not overly luxurious. Good location close to the people-watching on beach and the Metro station.
