There are ATMs in T2 as well but I'm not familiar with the layout there as I'm generally on AA/Iberia/BA.

Also note you can take a radio taxi and pay by credit card then look for ATMs, of which there are plenty in Copa, Ipanema and Leblon, close to your hotel.
oiRRio--Thank you for that info. ^ I will be arriving on AA, so I assume T1 for me. I will head upstairs like you suggest. I am staying at the Intercontinental. Do you have any experience with what is around that particular hotel in terms of Bank ATM's? Or, any other advise on places to eat, grocery store/place to get water, snacks, etc. in the general vicinity of the hotel.
