About

Hotel Nacional Inn Rio Copacabana

Hotel Nacional Inn Rio Copacabana sits on Rua Belford Roxo, just two blocks from the sands of Copacabana and a three-block walk to the metro. The 3-star property keeps things straightforward: air-conditioned rooms, a buffet breakfast, and an outdoor pool with sun loungers for post-beach downtime.

Guests consistently highlight the location and the helpful staff, who speak good English and assist with everything from currency tips to tour tickets. The hotel is also near shops, a shopping mall, and the Copa nightlife, making it a practical base for exploring Rio.

Note that the hotel does not allow pets, and the pool was under renovation at the time of one guest's stay – always confirm current facilities before booking.
