“Socialtel Copacabana strikes me as a place where the prime location opposite Copacabana Beach is the real draw, along with the community vibe they're cultivating with features like a rooftop bar and on-site cinema. I think it's particularly well-suited for those who want to be in the heart of the action and don't mind a bit of a hostel atmosphere; the coworking space also makes it an interesting option for digital nomads. It seems like a good base for exploring Rio, but it's worth considering a sea view room to truly appreciate the hotel's best asset.”
