Frommer's "The fabulous location -- just 1 block from Ipanema beach, in the heart of the neighborhood's trendy gay section -- is why so many stay here." Full review
Fodor's "The location close to Ipanema Beach is the main reason to stay at this hotel, which provides guests with beach chairs and umbrella service free of charge."
DK Eyewitness "This hotel occupies a tall tower a block from the sea at Ipanema’s Arpoador end. The rooms on the “Ipanema floor” have clean modern lines and colors, along with Italian furniture."
Time Out "Part of the Golden Tulip international hotel chain, the Plaza is a popular choice with the gay community given its exquisite location at the end of Farme de Amoedo." Full review
Star Service "This hotel is located on a busy corner one block from Ipanema Beach, within walking distance of Copacabana." Full review

Rough Guide Star
"The luxurious Ipanema Plaza (part of the Dutch-owned Golden Tulip chain) is small enough to provide individual attention to guests."
The Telegraph7.0
"Over a hundred rooms, almost on the beach and with a sizable rooftop pool it has much to offer, yet in places it feels weary and in need of some love and attention." Full review
Fodor's "In the heart of Ipanema's shopping and dining district...this hotel has standard accommodations and in-room amenities but a great rooftop view—a postcard shot of Corcovado and the lagoon. " Full review
Lonely Planet Top Choice
"A top choice, the 18-story Plaza features nicely decorated rooms with tile floors, a muted color scheme and sizable windows to let in the tropical rays." Full review

Get a deluxe for the ocean view or risk a vista of a neighboring wall.
Lonely Planet "The beach-facing location is the real draw. The standard rooms are too dark and cramped, so it's not worth staying here unless you book one of the deluxe rooms with those unobstructed ocean views." Full review
Star Service "This midrange choice in the heart of Copacabana is a refreshing choice amidst a bevy of overpriced design hotels or poorly maintained cheaper hostelries." Full review
OysterMid-Range
"Orla Copacabana Hotel offers a prime location at the south end of Copacabana, just across from the beach on Avenida Atlantica." Full review
Lonely Planet "The Spanish-owned Orla Copacabana has some attractive, understated rooms, but the beach-facing location is the real draw" Full review
