This small, >60 room hotel was perfect for my week in Rio with a family member. The hotel has a great location, a half block away from Ipanema Beach, 1 1/2 blocks from Ipa's shopping district on Visconde Avenue and in easy walking distance from cafes, bars and restaurants. The neighborhood feels safe, posh-ish without being obnoxious. Hotel staff are... More

I have stayed here twice recently and I had a great experience both times. The value of this restaurant is excellent - yes, it is not cheap, but for the location (one block from Ipanema beach), it is an amazing price. Both times that I stayed the front desk helped me resolve minor problems - they brought us a hair... More

The location is perfect, very close to ipanema beach. The Hotel staff is very nice, specially the people that takes care of breakfast. Rooms are not that big and at least mine had a fridge that was a bit noisy. I was also on the second floor so you could ear lot's of noise from the street. Beds are not... More

This is a really decent hotel in beautiful Rio. We stayed three nights and found the room very comfortable if a little basic. The hotel is very clean and we enjoyed the breakfasts including the specially prepared omelettes and Brazilian pancakes. The location is amazing - a few paces from the lovely Ipanema Beach and the surrounding area is full... More

I stayed here in April 2013 and would generally recommend this hotel with some minor concerns. Good: - LOCATION! - Just seconds walk from Ipanema Beach. Comfortable, reasonably safe neighbourhood. I never felt uncomfortable or threatened. - Staff are very nice. The front desk staff were very nice and helpful, spoke good english, and the kitchen staff (also good english)... More

First off, the location is amazing. Yes about 2-5 minutes walking and you are at the beautiful beaches of Ipanema. However, the rooms are not great at all. There was no hair blow dryer and they are extremely firm about the 2 pm check in even though they kept telling us otherwise. The wifi is somewhat slow. Breakfast was good... More

For the price that we paid, if only the location counted and it was worth it. Basic, small and clean rooms, window that didn't fully opened, noisy air conditioning, shower that overflow but all in all perfect for us Breakfast great, towels for beach available at the reception, staff very helpful and friendly and free internet. Perfect for a short... More

We stayed three nights and based on previous reviews I asked for an upgraded room which we received on the 8th floor. The twin beds are small but functional as was the bathroom. The housekeeping staff were amazing and actually folded our clothes thrown throughout the room and placed spare items in cupboards. The breakfast was excellent and the extended... More

This hotel is perfectly located, meters from Ipanema Beach, and close walk to Coppacabana. The rooms where a bit dated, but I think they are renovating. The bed was a bit small length ways, the air con was a bit noisy. The breakfast here was amazing, lots to choose from and all fairly healthy. The staff were great as well... More
