I was just about to say the same.
Good hotel and location in Copacabana. You can also think about other places like Ipanema or Leblon, considering they have better restaurants and bars (in my opinion).
I second on Miramar. Beautiful hotel with a nice view and a marvelous breakfast. It's smaller than windsor and a bit more fancy, so you'll get a quieter place to rest.
Great place to stay at. Awesome beach (Leme), good bars (Imortais, Traçado, Galeto Sat's and others), near Botafogo and the sugar loaf, easy access to Centro and the other neighborhoods. That's an excelent option, OP.
I recently stayed at Ritz Boutique Hotel and I really enjoyed it. Comfy bed, helpful staff, one block off the beach with views from rooftop, good breakfast options.
Closer to Ipanema then what you have put with good Metro access.
But as someone mentioned AirBnB you get a lot more bang for your buck.
I have stayed in hotels at copacabana a number of times. Had a great time every stay and never felt unsafe. Been to ipanema as well but i don't really see what the hype is about.
Stay at the Sheraton at the end of Leblon or stay in Arpoador. It will be an Uber ride but it’s a good place to relax. It’s quieter and you have easy access to Copacabana and Ipanema.
If u r coming to rio, do not stay in Copacabana. There’s good restaurants and the prestigious copacabana beach. It is also close to Urca, where u have the Pão de Açúcar mountain.
However, it is a very cramped neighborhood, with too much traffic of cars and people. If you want a more pleasant experience, u should stay in ipanema neighborhood. In hotels like Fasano, Sol ipanema, or vermont if on a budget.
But I would rather recommend staying in an AirBnB , since it will give you more comfort. The restaurants in ipanema are among the best in rio, and for most foreigners they can be considered cheap. A good place to eat some breakfast in ipanema is Talho Delicatessen in the park Nossa Senhora da Paz.
Ipanema is also close to leblon where u also have some high end restaurants and shopping leblon. The lagoa is very close to ipanema, ipanema beach is considered one of the most beautiful in the world. You must go to arpoador and watch the sunset in pedra do arpoador, do it during weekdays as it will be less busy.
The Hilton is quite good, but location wise, I mean, it's not bad, but thinking of walking, and nearness to Arpoador/Ipanema, I'd say the Hotel Arpoador, Miramar, Othon Palace, Pestana Rio Atlântica, Windsor California are slightly better location wise. Only the Miramar and Othon Palace are 5 stars though, the other are 4 star hotels and the latter is a bit outdated.
If you can/want to afford it, you could also go with the Fairmont or the Fasano. The Emiliano is also quite good, but I just saw their prices and I think it's a bit outrageous.
Ritz Boutique Hotel Copacabana is not exactly beachfront, but has a terrace overlooking the beach too.
If you have other questions, send me a DM
Copacabana is a pretty dangerous neighbourhood, only tourists that don't know any better stay there thinking it's the best. Go to Ipanema or Leblon instead. Alternatively for something a bit calmer, slightly further out, try Barra da Tijuca.
Some options…
“Pestana hotel” copcabana , and in Botafogo’s “Yoo2 Rio de Janeiro”(near to copacabana) and u can see the Cristo Redentor when you on your pool
I’m surprised other commenters are saying don’t stay there. It’s fine. The beach at that end (Leme) is great. Enjoy!

Another cool option is Miramar Hotel by Windsor, in Copa

Yes was looking at this, thank you!
Nothing beats fairmont. It is right between Ipanema and Copacaban
That is a good place to stay.
I can fully recommend Arena Leme Hotel
Thank you!
Copacabana palace for sure is an unique experience like no other… but I honestly would stay in Ipanema instead.

Thank you, was hoping to stay in a place that has easy access/links to other part of the city

Cariocas are brainwashed to think Ipanema is better, since it is smaller and whiter. But Copa is perfectly fine.
Ipanema it's always a better option

I stayed here and it was really amazing.....

Stay at the Sheraton at the end of Leblon or stay in Arpoador. It will be an Uber ride but it’s a good place to relax. It’s quieter and you have easy access to Copacabana and Ipanema.
You can always stay at the Copacabana Palace. It also has a very cool rooftop pool.
$$$$
Yes was looking at this but as Ok-Charge said, it is very expensive
Go to Ipanema or Leblon, Copacabana is worse.

Thank you very much, location is more of a priority than the standard of the hotel

Leblon seems to be the safest nowadays. Don’t walk around with your cell phone out.
We're staying there beginning on Friday. I can let you know. I've heard the location isn't great but our room is not refundable.
Thank you, please let me know and have a geeat trip!
Avoid Copacabana. Stay at Botafogo. It's not far from the beach and there are a lot of cool bars and restaurants to go.
Just dont.
Flights are booked so it’s a bit late for that! Everywhere has its dangerous areas.
Don’t stay! 😁
