Let down, lesson to be learned don’t use hotels.co
Would not recommend this hotel to anyone. Great location. Employees had hard time understanding English or they pretended not to . Took 2 days for someone to properly fix an overflow toilet, had to use toilet in lobby.

Solo Traveler meets Copacabana
The location of the hotel is great, literally right across the street from Copacabana beach. The downfall is that the area is not the safest as a solo traveler safety is something that is important to me. The hotel itself is not what I expected from photos or previous reviews. The hotel is older and you can tell. The room was outdated and not very clean. However, the view from room was amazing. For the price they charge I would have expected more. The complimentary breakfast was ok nothing over the top. The rooftop pool is small and the gym is small as well.

The Arena hotel is not accommodating to early arrivals from the USA. We had an overnight flight and arrived at the hotel at 7 am. I asked if they could prepare the room earlier. They said no, check in is at 2 pm. I asked if we could have breakfast, they said no. Your complimentary breakfast will start tomorrow.

I was extremely disappointed how I made paid an additional fee for breakfast, my stay was 6 days out of which I had breakfast 3 times. On 2 of my visits I realized that the food was not being replenished and finished fast due to amount of guest. I asked for eggs n they refused to accommodate me n my daughter by saying they were out of eggs. There was no orange juice the staff at the restaurants did not do anything. I had to place a complaint at the front desk and thanks to them they gave the order to the restaurant to give us wanted.
Also on day of checkin we arrived at 8 am to the hotel, I requested for an early check in, I would have gladly paid bc I had been traveling overnight, they couldn’t accommodate I requested breakfast and they said I had to pay for it since my reservation was starting after 2 PM and technically I had missed breakfast. So I paid for the breakfast which I felt was not called for and poor customer service as it turned out they didn’t have our rooms ready till after 2:45 PM.
I do wanna complement the people at the front desk and Security especially Felipe for doing an awesome job.
The restaurant food was not the greatest.
There was no housekeeping on our last day, housekeeping never refilled the soap dispensers.

The front office staff are attentive and helpful. The other staff speaks little English thus communication can be a bit of a problem. The hotel is adequate and clean.
