Why I include it
The rooftop belongs to Yoo2 Rio de Janeiro and makes the most of the view over Botafogo Bay. Its concept centres on drinks, gatherings and hotel events.
How to experience it
I would use it for sunset or the early evening. Because hotel rooftops can change access rules, I would confirm beforehand if not staying there.
My Ernestinho tip
Try to arrive in daylight to see the bay transition into night. Confirm bookings or non-guest access before travelling.
Because a rooftop depends on the weather, I would confirm on the day that it is open and accepts visitors who are not staying at the hotel. Also ask whether a booking covers just a table or a specific event, so you do not travel for the view and find different access arrangements. If rain or strong winds are forecast, keep an indoor Botafogo alternative and hold on to the booking until the change is confirmed.
