Emiliano brings its guests to the heart of Rio with a prime location on Copacabana Beach. Combining modern elements with a bit of a 1950s touch, the result is a stylish blend of beach resort and city hotel. Guest accommodations, many with stunning views of the sea, boast contemporary décor, warm wood flooring, and touches of marble and gold. Emiliano Restaurant offers a contemporary cuisine, enlivened by locally sourced, organic ingredients, while the rooftop restaurant is a more informal setting for light sea food and healthy fare. In addition to the extensive spa and gym, guests will enjoy relaxing on the roof deck by the infinity pool, with a panorama spanning from Leme to Copacabana Fort.
Emiliano Rio
A Small Luxury Hotels of the World hotel. Rialto is a Small Luxury Hotels – withIN agency and can provide VIP access and offers.
Copacabana regains its glam with Emiliano Rio. Folding, articulated panels filter the sun through floor-to-ceiling windows in the 90 modish rooms, which feel downright cozy thanks to woven wall fabrics and natural woods. Ring up the on-call butler for caipirinhas on your glass-railed balcony, or show off your pedicure in personalized Havaianas flip-flops by the rooftop infinity-edge pool, where perfectly coiffed staff in crisp designer uniforms attend to your wishes. A living wall brings the rain forest inside Emiliano restaurant, which uses locally sourced seafood and produce for its contemporary Brazilian cuisine.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does booking through Rialto cost more than booking with the hotel?
No - VIP rates under Small Luxury Hotels – withIN always meet or beat hotel's public, flexible rate, and provide valuable amenities and possible upgrades. Rialto also provides the hotel's non-VIP and corporate rates, so you can compare with full transparency.
What is the value of the VIP benefits?
Daily breakfast for two plus the $50-100 hotel credit come with every stay at this hotel - adding $100-200/day in value. A room upgrade could also be worth a substantial amount, in addition to early check-in / late check-out benefits when available.
How does this compare to other programs, like through AMEX Fine Hotels & Resorts, or Chase Edit?
Using a hotel's own VIP program may provide higher upgrade priority, additional VIP benefits and promotional rate offers, and a direct relationship with the hotel for special requests. Rialto offers more VIP hotels than any credit card program. In addition, Chase Edit rates can be substantially more expensive as they rarely run promotions whereas AMEX rates are often comparable but do not offer programs such as Upgrade at Booking.
Can my AI assistant book this hotel?
Yes. Connect Rialto to Claude or ChatGPT and ask for rates. You finish the booking on a secure Rialto page. Card details are not sent through the AI chat, so either you would approve the final checkout step and reconfirm all the information, or if you authorize your agent with Computer-Use permissions, it can fill out the checkout form as well.
