Avenida Atlântica 2964
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro
Always one of the nicest hotels on the Avenida Atlântica, the Pestana looks brand-new thanks to a recent overhaul. The best rooms in the house, without doubt, are the Oceanica suites. These large rooms offer ocean views, large balconies, and come elegantly furnished with dark wooden furniture and splashes of yellow and beige. They are among the best in Copa, if you can afford the splurge. The standard and superior rooms are more plainly furnished and have a side view. Standard rooms look out over the buildings adjacent to the hotel. Superior rooms (on the 10th floor and higher) have a partial ocean view. There's a good fitness center and the rooftop pool area offers a massage room, sauna, and Jacuzzi.

Rua Sa Ferreira
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro
The Martinique is the newest budget option of the Windsor chain. Located just around the corner from the Miramar, the hotel is only half a block off the Avenida Atlântica and offers excellent value. The hotel consists of two buildings side-by-side that were gutted and then joined together. This makes for some mazelike hallways and some small rooms, but on the plus side, the hotel is only a year old and everything is top-notch. Most of the rooms accommodate two people only. If you require a room for three, reserve ahead of time. The hotel even has a rooftop pool and sun deck but with the beach only 300 feet away you'd have to be pretty lazy not to make it out the door.
