Rio De Janeiro
The Grand Dames: Historic Glamour on the Copacabana
Rio de Janeiro is a city where the past and present dance in perfect rhythm, nowhere more so than within the walls of its most legendary hotels. From the Art Deco majesty of the Copacabana Palace, A Belmond Hotel, to the modernist curves of the Hotel Nacional in São Conrado, these properties define the 'Carioca' golden age. Travelers seeking historic glamour will find themselves transported to an era of high society and samba.Beyond the famous crescent of Copacabana, the sophisticated allure extends to the trendy streets of Ipanema and the bohemian hills of Santa Teresa. Whether it is the artistic heritage of the Santa Teresa Hotel RJ - MGallery or the mid-century chic of the Fairmont Rio de Janeiro, these Grand Dames offer more than just a stay; they offer a piece of Brazilian history.

See and Be Seen: The Design Icons of Ipanema & Rio
Rio de Janeiro is a city where the landscape is dramatic, and the architecture tries to match it. In our collection, "See and Be Seen: Design Icons of Ipanema," we explore the properties that define the Carioca luxury lifestyle. While anchored by the chic streets of Ipanema, where the Hotel Fasano and Emiliano stand as modern monuments to style, our curation extends along the coast. We capture the retro-glamour of the Fairmont in Copacabana, the secluded modernist masterpiece of Hotel Nacional in São Conrado, and the resort-style grandeur of the Sheraton near Leblon. These are not just places to sleep; they are stages where high design meets the vibrant social energy of Rio.
