"Rio de Janeiro already had a full complement of glamorous, high-end luxury hotels. So it’s a big deal that it’s suddenly got another. Hotel Emiliano stands over Copacabana Beach, and while you won’t mistake it for any of its 1920s-vintage neighbors, it’s quintessentially Brazilian all the same — the design, by Studio Arthur Casas and Oppenheim Architecture & Design, is a masterful mix of Brazilian Modernism and contemporary cool." - Tablet Hotels
