Emiliano Rio

Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Rio de Janeiro's famous Copacabana Beach needs little introduction, and neither does Emiliano Rio, whose striking, pierced facade commands attention along the promenade. Designed by architect Arthur Casas, the Modernist design maximises sea views with foldable shutters that allow natural light and breeze to flow in, while offering privacy when closed. The interiors blend modern style with Brazilian materials such as cane, white paraná marble, granite, and stone, while the rooftop dazzles with views of the sea and Copacabana Fort, providing a blissful spot for caipirinhas and a dip in the infinity pool. After a day at the beach, Emile Restaurant offers colourful dishes amidst a lush living wall, while the Santapele Spa provides a peace-instilling retreat from the beachfront bustle. The hotel also supports eco-initiatives, upcycling Egyptian cotton linens into beach bags, pyjamas and more, with proceeds benefiting charitable causes.
