Hotel Prices in Rio de Janeiro Vary by Country

Rio de Janeiro, Brazil's marvelous city, attracts millions of travelers each year. From Ipanema to Santa Teresa, the city offers accommodation ranging from budget hostels to world-class luxury hotels. What most visitors do not realize is that the price they see for any hotel in Rio de Janeiro depends on where they are browsing from.

Online travel agencies like Booking.com and Expedia use geographic pricing to show different rates based on the booker's country. A hotel near Copacabana priced at one rate for travelers in the United States may cost 20-40% less when viewed from Southeast Asia, South America, or Eastern Europe. These are identical rooms on identical dates with identical cancellation policies.
