Choose Américas if heating counts for more than a beachfront address. The listing puts the pool on the top floor and calls it heated, but who can swim isn't published.
The pool
Américas has its pool on the top floor of a 4-star hotel at R. Barata Ribeiro, 550 in Copacabana. It is listed as heated, and the hotel has a steam room and spa facilities. The exact floor number and the access rules aren't published.
Our take
Heated pools are rare on our list: only three have one, and this is one of them. Sol Ipanema and Janeiro Hotel are the others, and both say guests only. Américas doesn't publish its access rules at all, so that is the catch.
Rio's highs run 29.4°C in November and 31.5°C in January, so heating matters less in summer. It earns its place in the cooler months, outside the best February to April window. With no floor number published, you can't compare the height with Hilton Barra, which lists the 9th floor.
Good to know
- Heated pool, one of three on our list
- Pool listed on the top floor
- Steam room and spa facilities on site
The catches
- Access rules aren't published by the hotel
- No floor number published
Best forTravelers who want a heated top-floor pool plus a steam room and spa.

Getting in
No day pass is listed, and non-guest swimming isn't something the hotel publishes. Booking a room is the only sure way in.
Age rules and pool hours aren't published either.
Tips
- Email or call the hotel before booking and ask for pool hours and the exact floor.
- If you stay, ask whether the pool heating runs in the month you travel.
Before you go. Call or email before booking to get the pool hours and access rules. Neither is published.
