The Orla is one of THE best places you can stay if you want to be near the beach. It is literally across from the famous Copacabana - you can walk there in a minute! Don't think you'll get a great view from your hotel window, however; there are a limited number of rooms overlooking the ocean, but the room we stayed in was still very nice, as was the hotel staff. Here's a tip - if you do stay there, which I highly recommend, get the breakfast option, because it's very good and a great way to start your day, and the waiters are very attentive and friendly.

Best location. Not fancy, but has everything you need. Restaurant is simply incredible, one of the best in the neighborhood. What makes this place shine is the incredible staff and the friendly beach attendants.

I loved this hotel! Clean, sleek, cool. Spacious rooms. Amazing rooftop with pool and bar that overlooks Arpoador Beach. Also, you are right on that beach!! So the location can’t be be beat. The breakfast exceeded my expectations. The staff are so professional, friendly, and kind. My only complaint is that the walls in the room are very thin. You could hear complete conversations or even someone snoring in room next door. Besides that, a perfect stay. I would lodge here again.
