Choosing your Rio hotel

What counts as a resort in Rio?

Rio has relatively few classic all-inclusive resorts inside the city. The strongest options are usually large beachfront hotels with pools, spas, several restaurants and enough facilities to spend a full day on the property.

Barra, São Conrado or the South Zone

Barra and São Conrado offer more space and a slower resort feel, but longer journeys to the main attractions. Copacabana and Leblon keep you closer to restaurants and sightseeing while offering a more urban hotel experience.

Check what is actually included

Do not assume that a property described as a resort is all-inclusive. Compare breakfast, beach service, children's activities, spa access, parking and cancellation conditions for your exact room and dates.
