Our coverage of luxury hotels in Brazil began with the best hotels in the capital of Sao Paulo and the other major city that is synonymous with the country: Rio de Janeiro. We've expanded beyond that as beach resorts catering to the rising wealthy population have opened up.
Still, despite Brazil's wealth of natural resources and its growing clout as a business hub, there have been surprising few standout luxury hotels in its two major cities and pickings were slim in other regions. A decade ago you were lucky to even have a choice of 5-star hotels in the biggest cities, but thankfully a few recent developments have brought in some much-needed competition. With Brazil's star rising in the economic world and upcoming hostings of the World Cup and Summer Olympics, we expect high-end travelers to find new options as the years go by and new luxury hotel brands move in, especially in Rio.
Our continually expanding luxury hotel reviews go beyond Brazil's two major cities and cover key beach resorts that are likely to please upscale international travelers. Except for at the Orient-Express property Copacabana and a couple traditional hotels in the cities, you can generally expect hipster decor and furniture designed for fashion spreads, but sometimes at shockingly high prices.
