Staying at Ipanema Inn was a great experience overall, especially given its prime location just across the street from Ipanema Beach—walking to the sand is effortless. The free beach towels and chairs are a nice touch, making beach days even more convenient. The on-site restaurant delivers solid food quality with a welcoming vibe. While the room is compact, it’s clean and well-maintained. That said, the street noise can be intense, especially with ongoing construction nearby—something to consider if you’re sensitive to sound. The air conditioning drips water, and the shower setup isn’t the most user-friendly. The bed was also quite firm, which might not suit everyone. However, the highlight of our stay was the rooftop spa at their sister property in Arpoador. We had an incredible massage there—relaxing, professional, and worth every minute. Despite a few minor drawbacks, we enjoyed our three-night stay and would definitely return for the location and the exceptional spa experience.
Staying at this resort felt like a true getaway. The private beach access is a game-changer—just step outside and you're right on the sand with stunning ocean views. It's well-located, just a short ride from downtown Rio, making it easy to explore the city while still enjoying a peaceful retreat. The amenities are impressive: multiple pools (indoor and outdoor), tennis courts, and a dedicated kids’ play area that kept my children entertained all day. Despite being a luxury hotel, the price feels very reasonable—excellent value for money. The only minor downside? The sound of waves can be a bit loud if you're sensitive to noise, so I’d recommend requesting a room farther from the beach side or on a higher floor. Overall, an outstanding experience—comfortable, well-maintained, and perfect for families or couples looking for relaxation with great convenience.
Everything was perfect at Janeiro Hotel! From check-in to checkout, every detail was spot-on. The location is fantastic—just a short walk or quick subway ride away from major attractions, and there are plenty of great cafes and local shops nearby. The room was immaculate, clean, and well-equipped with modern amenities. The bed was incredibly comfortable—I slept so well I didn’t want to get up in the morning. Staff were friendly, helpful, and went out of their way to make us feel welcome. Even helped with luggage and gave great local tips. This hotel offers an outstanding experience for the price. I’d definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Rio.
Staying at Hotel Nacional was an absolute delight! The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the room itself was beautiful—spacious, stylish, and impeccably clean. Every detail felt thoughtfully designed. The service was top-notch, with staff going above and beyond to make us feel welcome. Location is unbeatable—right on the beachfront with stunning ocean views from the windows. Even though breakfast isn’t included, the neighborhood has plenty of great local eateries just a short walk away. It’s perfect for travelers who want a relaxing, authentic Rio experience without the hassle. Highly recommend this gem—it truly stands out.
Matteo is an exceptional host—warm, attentive, and genuinely thoughtful. The lodge itself is a true gem, combining stunning design with an unbeatable location. What stood out most was the serene, homely atmosphere—it felt less like a guesthouse and more like staying in a private luxury home. The views of Pedra da Gavea and São Conrado are absolutely breathtaking, especially at sunset. Every detail, from the decor to the quiet, peaceful setting, speaks to a deep commitment to comfort and authenticity. I couldn’t recommend Tuakaza more highly. It’s not just a place to stay—it’s an experience. I’d return in a heartbeat. Thank you, Matteo, for making our visit so memorable.
The rooftop view overlooking Ipanema Beach is absolutely breathtaking! Yes, the pool is quite small—perfect for a quick dip or letting kids splash around—but honestly, that view alone makes it worth it. The location is fantastic, just a short walk from everything, and the vibe of the place is so relaxed and welcoming. It’s not about luxury amenities; it’s about that unforgettable panorama and the authentic Rio experience. A must-stay if you want to feel like you’re right in the heart of the city’s energy.
If you're looking for a truly unique stay in Rio de Janeiro, this boutique hotel is a must. Nestled almost entirely within the lush greenery, it offers an intimate atmosphere with breathtaking views of Christ the Redeemer—literally just outside your window. The staff are exceptional from check-in to check-out; Kadosh and Taisa stood out with their genuine care and attention. The founder, Dany—a French visual artist—infuses every corner with her creative spirit, making the entire place feel like a living art piece. I stayed in the pink room, which was spacious, cozy, and incredibly welcoming. It's rare to find such charm, comfort, and personal touch in one place. This isn't just a hotel—it’s an experience. Grateful for the unforgettable memories.
