Copacabana is full of average (or worse) hotels stuck in a 70s/ 80s timewarp. We were pleasantly surprised, therefore, by how smart the lobby of the Premier was. Although nothing spectacular, it's contemporary and discreetly stylish- for Copacabana. Our twin rooms were neat, decently sized but not huge, and equipped with flat screen TVs and the most powerful showers ever-... more

I was unimpressed with this hotel. I booked on Expedia paid about 100 USD a night which was about a third of the rack rate. Anyone paying the rack rate would be deservedly upset. Our room was dark with an uncomfortable mattress. On the bright side there were some English t.v. stations (we really missed the news after two weeks... more

Premier Copacabana is a great value. It's easy walking distance to Copacabana beach, and, if you're in the mood for a long walk, walking distance to Ipanema. There is not much directly around the hotel but the beach is only about four blocks away. The value comes from the spacious rooms (ours was almost like an apartment with a sitting... more

This hotel is not huge but it is a great great value. I was honestly surprised by its internal beauty because of the unassuming exterior. The view from the top of the hotel looks straight at Cristo Redentor, and has a view of the mountains. You can also see the famous favela off in the distance from the top of... more

I enjoyed Rio as much as I did in large measure because of the very helpful staff at the Premier Copacabana Hotel. They provided excellent information about the city and went out of their way to see to it that I had a wonderful stay in Rio. Although it is six blocks from the beach, the hotel is conveniently located... more

I stayed at the Premier Copacabana for a week with colleagues. They charged my credit card - without my knowledge - for someone else's "no show" (no idea who) and still after three weeks of them acknowledging this am I yet to get a refund. This was the final straw after a week of generally unhelpful and reluctant staff (who... more

The hotel is very nice and has a grand apperance. The rooms very very clean and tidy but location is about four blocks from the beach and do get quite a few looks from the locals as your walking about ( no tourists around this area ). But you are a 30 secound walk to the Metro station very handy!.... more

I stayed at the Premier Hotel for 10 days. The room was clean, air conditioner worked, it had a working safe, cable tv, wireless internet, a business center, great complimentary breakfast. There is a great rooftop pool with views of Copacabana and Cristo. The main issue with the hotel for me was the service. I had issues booking the room... more

I spent 1 night at Premier Copacabana in November, and think it is a very solid mid priced choice. The front desk was very nice, and very professional. They were friendly, and English is no problem. After a very fast check-in, I was shown a nice room on the top floor. It was bigger, and seemed newer than most mid... more

I was very surprised to see how mixed the ratings of the Premier Copacabana Hotel were. I just got back from Rio and had a great time. I did not find the service to be rude. Sandro at the front desk gave us plenty of tips on what to do during our stay and maps to help us along. He... more
