Olinda Othon Classic Hotel - Copacabana Beach, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Maintaining all the charm and glamour of the 40's, with its lobby, all in Carrara marble the Olinda Othon Classic is situated in the heart of Copacabana's Beach. We could feel a bit of the beauty of the golden 40's here.

 

The Olinda Classic's Lobby - note the intricate crown molding, columns and chandeliers.

It's low season and there are virtually no tourists around.

While we were there they filmed scenes from a movie at the hotel - the people on the sofas were extras. You can barely see a camera to the right.

This was earlier when they were unloading all of the equipment. You can see it all attracted a lot of attention from the locals.

How can you have a movie in Copacabana without a woman in a red dress?

It was quite a production - you can see a camera dolly and tracks in the foreground.
