Very nice breakfast with amazing view . Big swimming pool and private beach . Rooms are not brand new like Sheraton in Barra da Tijuca but the beds are comfortable and it’s very clean .

ᴡ Nerde

Friendly staff , great breakfast , and casual dinner . Lots of business guests, so pool and private beach are quite uncluttered which is nice.

Robert Carbonell

Hotel is great as usual. Note they are renewing all pool area including the restaurants till march 2016, one at the time. Still worth it.

Ramona Baldovin

I love the sound of the sea from every room and the balconies and sea views from all rooms. Nice pool and beach .

Christina Ooi

Super lovely staff and a nice slightly quieter beach to lie on although it's public so you get a little bit of the local flair. Food is good but as always in hotels , overpriced.

Ilan Salviano

????. Room service is outstanding. The staff is also super helpful.. Best hotel in Rio de Janeiro

@mrsoaroundworld

Only private beach in rio, v close to leblon. Great views and safe. Club lounge on 4th floor outstanding - late breakfast till 11am, afternoon tea and evening cocktails 5-7pm inc caipirinhas

The best hotel in Rio . Excelent views , with an empty beach next to it. A little old (ugly 70s building) but in the process of beig refurbished .

Ankush Bhargava

All restaurants with a view . Kids play room has plenty to do. Can hire English speaking nanny for about $20 per hour

There's a mini fridge in rooms, they charge for internet/breakfast. Don't walk out of the premises at night, people have gotten mugged several times. The beach is by far it's best feature.

Jimmy Zhu

Peeling wallpaper and discolored rugs are overshadowed by the gorgeous views ; the "private beach " is a bit of a scam - there is a staircase to the favelas and the locals use the beach aggressively

Marcelo Castro

After the disaster of 2019, the refurbishment fit well . The scooters from Lime have also facilitated the access to its location.

Ask for a blue towel near the fitness center , pick your spot by the pool, and order an "agua de coco " (fresh coconut ). Relax, you're in Rio!

Nice hotel by a bit far from leblond/ipanema, 15 minutes walk, free shuttle from the hotel or just take a taxi to go wherever you wanna go !

Jess Falkenthal

The breakfast is worth the price! It was the largest breakfast buffet I've ever seen & the food quality was amazing.

Fathima Dada

Great location at the end of Rio, quiet but easy walk to Ipanema and other delights!

Mark W

Amazing views on the Ipanema side. Doing SPG points & pay make it a real deal.

Fathima Dada

The casual restaurant near the pool does a great seafood and rice dish at a great price!

Best way to fake Portuguese is by speaking Spanish with a French accent

Guilherme Veríssimo

You defenitely should try the Smoked Salmon salad @Casa da Cachaça restaurant . Light and beautiful!

Anna G.

Excellent breakfast and guest rooms with breathtaking views

Get a renovated room that's facing Ipanema beach . The view is stunning.

Lovely view over Leblon/Ipanema. You can’t actually see the sunset from here but you can see the sky glow. Much quieter place to relax and enjoy than Arpoador - K B
