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

Frommer's "For a very different hotel experience, consider spending a few nights in the quaint hilltop neighborhood of Santa Teresa." Full review
Concierge "A colonial-style house in the leafy hillside district of Santa Teresa provides the backdrop for Mama Ruisa, a design-minded B&B that offers personalized service."
DK Eyewitness "A charming, understated boutique hotel in a converted 18th-century mansion house in Santa Teresa. Each room is named after a different French cultural icon."
Time Out "Another beautifully-restored Santa Teresa mansion, this time courtesy of Frenchman Jean-Michel Ruis who keeps a hands-on approach to the running of the hotel and the comfort of his guests." Full review
Travel + Leisure "Far away from the crowds on Copacabana, Mama Ruisa is a small yet sophisticated boutique hotel tucked into the hills of Santa Teresa, Rio's burgeoning artists' district." Full review
The Telegraph8.0
"This tropical boutique hotel has a palm-lined pool and impressive views, but the colonial splendour of the huge rooms is the real draw." Full review
