Copacabana
The Copacabana Palace is Rio's most iconic address — a white Neoclassical palace that has presided over the city's most famous beach since 1923. Princess Diana, Marlene Dietrich, and Princess Grace have all called it home temporarily; its rooftop pool and Pérgula restaurant remain the city's most coveted reservations.

Under the Belmond flag, the Copacabana Palace's legendary status is only reinforced. The pool visible from Copacabana Beach is among the most recognised images in South American travel. The Sunday brunch by the pool is a longstanding Rio institution.
