We upgraded to a beach front room which was wonderful. The other room was a little small. Everything else about the property and staff was fantastic.

Sally Australia

Excellent location, style, services, Bar and cafe just a few meters from Arpoador Beach and friendly staff.

Zohan Argentina

The location is outstanding. So are its breakfasts. Obviously, all its decor makes it a very special and pleasant place.

J Chile

Perfect location, the view is the most relaxing to wake up in Rio. The staff is the best that you can have and they always hep you for any requests. The breakfast is something that you will never forget! A huge thank you to Gabriel and Diana part of the staff and incredible people.

Silvia United States of America

Everything about our stay was really nice. We highly recommend it! Staying at a nice, well-staffed place makes all the difference when you're traveling! The location was ideal. The property is right on the edge of Ipanema and it was relaxing to people-watch on the beach from the restaurant. The rooms were clean and modern. WiFi connection was solid throughout. The breakfast was very good. And most importantly, the staff were all super friendly. The shuttle service was also very efficient and reliable--Genesio was very pleasant and gave a nice welcome and farewell. Would stay there again for the next trip!

Vanessa United States of America

The staff was very helpful. The location was amazing the food extraordinary. What's not to love. It's definitely a premier hotel in the area.

David United States of America

Hotel is a small property and walking distance to the beach and some food places which was the biggest perk.

Vijaya United States of America

Breakfast was lovely. Not your standard buffet so some may not like and there were costs for extras. But much of the breakfast such as the youghurt and granola was made in house.

Omar United Kingdom

The location, it’s modern and easy going, very original.

Ricardo Brazil

The facilities are modern, which is really hard to find in Rio unless you want to pay a fortune in the nearby Fasano Hotel. The clean design makes for a very soothing stay, creating a refugee away from the busy streets of Copacabana and Ipanema. The hotel, I would dare to say, has the best spot to watch the sunset over the "Morro Dois Irmãos." The breakfast is included, which has been named even by locals, as one of the best ones in the city. The staff is young and very friendly.

Daniel United States of America

Excellent location!

Such authorization must be notarized and signed by both parents, and presented along with notarized copies of their IDs.

If the person who is accompanied by a minor does not have the authorization for lodging, he or she should go to the Juvenile Court. Please contact the hotel for more information.

The property is right on the edge of Ipanema and it was relaxing to people-watch on the beach from the restaurant. The rooms were clean and modern. WiFi connection was solid throughout. The breakfast was very good. And most importantly, the staff were all super friendly. The shuttle service was also very efficient and reliable--Genesio was very pleasant and gave a nice welcome and farewell. Would stay there again for the next trip!”

    “The staff was very helpful. The location was amazing the food extraordinary. What's not to love. It's definitely a premier hotel in the area.”

    David United States of America

    “Hotel is a small property and walking distance to the beach and some food places which was the biggest perk.”

    Vijaya United States of America

    “Breakfast was lovely. Not your standard buffet so some may not like and there were costs for extras. But much of the breakfast such as the youghurt and granola was made in house.”

    Omar United Kingdom

    “The location, it’s modern and easy going, very original.”

    Ricardo Brazil

    “The facilities are modern, which is really hard to find in Rio unless you want to pay a fortune in the nearby Fasano Hotel. The clean design makes for a very soothing stay, creating a refugee away from the busy streets of Copacabana and Ipanema. The hotel, I would dare to say, has the best spot to watch the sunset over the "Morro Dois Irmãos." The breakfast is included, which has been named even by locals, as one of the best ones in the city. The staff is young and very friendly.”

      It’s hard to beat the location of this hotel. Literally a few steps from the beach , without have to cross many roads if you were on Copacabana or even further down on Ipanema . Sits at the crossroads of both beaches and hence easy access to either. Breakfast is good with quality produce and all the staff are kind and caring. I will return....

      The room in the first floor is very noisy. It seems you are in the street. They changed me to the last floor on the second night and it was perfect.

      Location, style, service, food are all amazing. Best place to stay in Rio if you want charm, comfort and location.

      Breakfast was a bit slow and a few essential pieces of tableware were left out, meaning we had to chase them up.

      Receptionist was very kind and accommodating. Great views and perfect location. Very comfortable bed and great shower.

      The interior rooms are very small.

      The breakfast on the patio across from Ipanema beach was excellent. The dinner/lunch menu is very healthy. Try the grilled prawns. They serve family style, so one order easily feeds two people. While much more expensive, the rooms facing the beach are fabulous. We had a balcony with sounds of the ocean all night. Not a party area while we were there. The interior rooms are comfortable, but much smaller with no views. The top floor is a roof deck with small pool and a bar. And views of the beach. The staff is very accommodating. They arranged a driver to take us to Cristo and Sugarloaf as well a 4am ride to the airport.

      Amazing staff - so friendly and helpful. Great little restaurant serving all fresh produce. Superb location right on the beach front, and very safe at night. Room was very clean, and great facilities. The roof top pool, bar and sauna are lovely. I would have stayed longer had they not been fully booked.

      Bedroom was extremely small, luckily we stayed only one night..if we had to stay longer in that bedroom it would ruin our holiday. Since we were leaving at 5am , the receptionist suggested two breakfast boxes to be ready for us in the morning, which we happily accepted..but when we came in the morning asking for the boxes, they were not prepared for us!

      Location is great and the lobby looks cool, but other then that very poor hotel

      Nothing, but concerning the pool: Guys, everyone reading the reviews can see that the pool isn‘t the biggest. So dont complain about it afterwards :) by the way its big enough to have a seat and enjoy the scenery and a beer ;) for swimming you have the biiig ocean right in front of you ;)

      A very nicely furnished hotel, extremly clean, great stuff, and the location is awesome! It is very safe (lot of police in the area) and its just a few steps to the beach. The view from the terrace is fabulous. Ipanema restaurants and shops is a 5 minute walk. Can definitely recommend it.
