Book the roof-level suite if a private pool matters more than a shared deck. The hotel describes a 135 m² suite with a pool in the living room and 180° city views. No day pass is listed.

The pool

The pool is in the living room of a cube-shaped suite at roof level at the Emiliano, on Av. Atlântica in Copacabana. The suite has 180° city views, a dining room and a mezzanine bedroom with a king bed. Floor number isn't published, and neither is heating.

Our take

This is a different product from the shared decks at Fasano or Sol Ipanema. You swim in your own suite, so there are no sun-bed queues. The hotel publishes no day pass either, so a non-guest has no listed way in.

The downside is the booking. You need the suite itself, and no rate is published for it. For a rooftop pool shared with other guests, Sofitel in Ipanema is the closer match.

Good to know

  • Pool sits in a 135 m² roof-level suite
  • 180° city views from the suite
  • Mezzanine bedroom with king bed and bathtub

The catches

  • No day pass listed, and no suite rate published
  • Floor number and heating aren't published

Best forA couple or small group after a private pool in a Copacabana suite.

Skip it ifYou want a shared deck, a day pass or a published price.

Getting in

The pool belongs to the roof-level suite, so you swim by booking that suite. The hotel lists no day pass and doesn't publish rules for other guests or non-guests.

Age rules aren't published.

Tips

  • Ask the hotel for the suite's rate and availability directly, since no price is published.

Before you go. Find out if other hotel guests can use the pool or only the suite's occupants, since the hotel doesn't say.
