Lock in a great price for Hotel Arpoador – rated 8.8 by recent guests!

to get started.

This was actually at Ipanema Inn, as the Arpoador hotel was closed for renovation

Nythamar, Brazil

As the Hotel Arpoador was being refurbished, i was given a room in the twin structure Ipanema Inn. Initially I was annoyed at the change, but the experience has been great: the position was perfect, round the corner from the beach, in one of the nicest neighbourhood (and definitely one of the safest), the room was very confortable, the breakfast generous and yummy, but the strongest point was the staff: extremely helpful and friendly. If/when I go back to Rio I will definitely come back to Ipanema Inn. Or Arpoador Inn, if the management is the same!

Silvia, Italy

Ipanema Inn is one block from the beach. Turn down service with chocolates was a nice touch. Breakfast was gourmet and delicious. Loved the fresh fruit juices and fruit. Happy hour cocktails were good and reasonably priced. The staff were friendly and went out of their way to assist.

Michelle, South Africa

Ipanema Inn was excellent!!! The room was very clean comfortable and new. We didn’t want to get out the bed because it was the best! The staff extremely friendly and cooperative. Breakfast was very good, lots of variety! I would definitely go back. Excellent location!

Meri, Argentina

Hotel Arpoador was in renovation and we stayed at Ipanema Inn. Location was great so close to Ipanema beach. Great breakfast with various types of egg in the menu and tapioca with local fruits.

Sumru, Turkey

Staff were very friendly - excellent location, just a few minutes to walk to the beach, restaurants and shopping.

Robert, United States of America

The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The street right outside the room was a little busy but the windows shut out any noise. The water pressure on the shower was great! The only complaint was that the room was small for the price.

Michele, United States of America

We were sent to Ipanema inn instead. I loved it. Breakfast was superb!

“Stayed at Ipanema Inn, Hotel Arpoador under renovations”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Standard Room
- • Stayed 2 nights
The room and bathroom was a bit small but we didn't spend much time there so it wasn't too much of a problem. We had booked Hotel Arpoador but were moved to Ipanema Inn due to renovations. I think Hotel Arpoador would be a better choice once it's completed as it's literally on the beach promenade and in a lively part of the beach. The Arpoador Rock where everyone gathers to watch the sunset is just outside Hotel Arpoador. I was a bit disappointed that we didn't end up staying there and I think once the renovations are done Hotel Arpoador will be one of the best choices in terms of location.
Ipanema Inn is one block from the beach. Turn down service with chocolates was a nice touch. Breakfast was gourmet and delicious. Loved the fresh fruit juices and fruit. Happy hour cocktails were good and reasonably priced. The staff were friendly and went out of their way to assist.

Originally we booked another hotel (Arpoador inn) and since they renovated they put us here. They are in the same chain, and should have known about the renovation much earlier, so don't feel correct thay they put their hotel still to be booked. Even though they compensated us supposly with a higher, superior room, still it was very small for us (they had to put an extra crib also though).
We liked the location, was very close to the beach, to a little square where my boy could play, restaurants and shops. The breakfast, the staff was amazing. Was very neat and stylish. Loved when we arrived, they immediately helped us with our suitcases bringing up to the room. Always waited us with fresh juices at the reception.
