Fodor's "The flagship of the Brazilian Othon chain, this 30-story hotel is not new, and its ambience is functional rather than luxurious."
Time Out "Unspoilt views along Copacabana and very close to Ipanema, The Othon Palace is well located to get the best of both neighbourhoods and their beaches." Full review

ake your drink to the poolside and make the most of the view over to Sugarloaf Mountain, or head inside to the Lobby Bar where live music can be found from the afternoon.
Star Service "Toward the Ipanema end of the Copacabana strip, this property is Othon's proud flagship." Full review
i
Avoid the unrenovated units on lower floors as they suffer from traffic noise and rickety furnishings.
Rough Guide "With almost 600 guest rooms, this is a favourite of tour groups."
Afar Magazine "The ocean view rooms at the Rio Othon Palace offer some of the best views in the city." Full review

You should still avoid the standard rooms, which are smaller and face the back of the building.
Lonely Planet "Set in a handsome, white building overlooking Copacabana beach, the Olinda Othon is indeed a classic." Full review
Time Out "Located on the Copacabana beachfront, the Othon classic has something of a boutique feel not found in many of its local competitors." Full review

"The Olinda Rio Hotel has two main draws -- its central Copacabana location right on the beachfront, and its charming Art Deco style, particularly in common areas." Full review
