Zona Sul Hotels with Bars / Lounges

"Lovely hotel right on the beach - clean, friendly staff, great breakfast and a private beach club with free sunbeds and umbrellas included. Even has a beach club where you can enjoy drinks overlooking the Copacabana."

"Great hotel. Great location. Great multilingual staff!"

"All of the power outlets were loose. The buttons on the safety deposit was extremely hard to press. The TV didn’t work for a few hours. "

"The room was clean and comfortable the water pressure for our shower was amazing! Beach is right across the street. We did not have an Ocean view but we didn’t go to spend time in our room so it didn’t matter. A little disappointing that when we wanted to unwind and have drinks on the roof the drinks had to come from the 1st floor so it took forever. But I would recommend staying there!"

"Partial sea view. Nice and clean room. Friendly staff "

"Ocean view was amazing, could have more outside tables for breakfast "

"Room was basic and clean but quite small. Reception staff were not very friendly or helpful . Pool was good. Spa staff were great and very accommodating !"

"I had a wonderful stay at Hotel Leme from February 20, 2026 to February 28, 2026. The hotel was absolutely spotless throughout my entire stay, which made me feel comfortable and relaxed right away. The breakfast bar was excellent, with a great variety of fresh and delicious options each morning. It was the perfect way to start the day before heading out to explore Rio. The staff truly made the experience exceptional. Everyone was attentive, friendly, and always willing to help. They were very informative about local attractions, offered convenient tour options, and even exchanged my money for reals, which made everything so much easier. The location is another big plus — within walking distance to many restaurants and local markets, making it easy to experience the neighborhood and enjoy authentic local spots. Overall, I highly recommend Hotel Leme for anyone visiting Rio. Clean, welcoming, well-located, and supported by a fantastic team — I would definitely stay there again!"

"Rooms are a bit outdated. Breakfast was good, staff was great, and hotel was in a great and safe location. "
