This was my second stay at this hotel but this room (706) was on the top floor opposite to the street. The bedroom is quiet, there are trees next to the large balcony, I really enjoyed the room. The staff was very helpful at my arrival but a bit confused when I was checking-out. The breakfast is good but you... More

I found the location of the Mercure Apartments RJ Arpoador very good. It was located just few minutes walk to the park and to Ipanema. Its almost as if it was located in the "centre" between Ipanema and Copacabana. There were cafes, shops and supermarkets close to the hotel which made it convenient to get items like water and snacks... More

When we arrived, the room was clean but barely. The floor was really dirty and had a film of sand throughout. The staff were just present and really had no... More

Mercure Arpoador is a nice hotel on a street that connects Ipanema beach and Copacabana. It is a short walk (<5 mins.) to either. The hotel is on a busy street in a safe neighborhood. There are several good restaurants in walking distance and one is next door to hotel. Hotel is clean and the mini-apartments are nice. Staff is... More
