A golden future shaped by a glittering past, the history of Copacabana Palace stretches back more than a century.

In 1923, during the centennial celebration of Brazilian independence, a bold vision took shape: to create the most luxurious hotel the world had ever seen. Rising from a gilded stretch of Rio’s coast with a facade by famed architect Joseph Gire, our hotel soon came to define the city’s pioneering spirit.

We've defined carnival, reimagined New Year’s Eve and drawn stars from Brigitte Bardot to Ella Fitzgerald, leaving a luster that endures to this day.
