I no longer live in Rio, I'm based in Portugal now, but every time I fly into the city via Santos Dumont Airport, this hotel is always my top choice. It's incredibly convenient—just a short walk from the airport, with a clean, comfortable atmosphere and friendly staff. The location makes getting around easy, and the value for money is excellent. Even though I'm not living here anymore, it still feels like home whenever I return to Rio.
I chose this ibis hotel in Rio de Janeiro's Botafogo neighborhood because I’d heard about safety concerns in the city, and being close to the Chinese Embassy gave me peace of mind. The classic ibis design is clean and well-maintained, with friendly staff who made my stay comfortable. That said, the room is on the smaller side—bed’s a bit narrow, and space feels tight—but for the price, it’s still a solid value. What really stands out is the large supermarket right downstairs, perfect for grabbing groceries, snacks, or drinks without having to go far. Overall, it’s a convenient, no-frills option that delivers on comfort and practicality, especially if you’re looking for a safe, hassle-free base in Rio.
Staying at Ibis Rio Porto Atlantico was a fantastic choice, especially given its close proximity to GIG Rio de Janeiro International Airport. Located in a well-planned new district, the area boasts wide, clean streets and a notably safer atmosphere compared to other parts of the city. Public transport is convenient—taking trams 1 and 4 to connect with the metro makes it easy to reach major tourist attractions without hassle. What really stood out was that room rates didn’t increase during Carnival season, which is incredibly fair and refreshing. The only minor downside is the lack of nearby restaurants—there’s just one large supermarket within walking distance, so dining options require a short trip. Still, the excellent location, reliable transport links, and great value make this hotel a top recommendation for travelers who prioritize convenience and peace of mind.
Staying at Ibis Copacabana Posto 5 was a fantastic experience. The room was clean, well-maintained, and just a short walk from the beach—perfect for morning strolls or sunset views. The location is ideal for exploring Rio, with easy access to public transit and nearby attractions. The front desk staff were incredibly helpful and spoke fluent English, making communication smooth and stress-free. When our luggage arrived late, they patiently stored it and helped us retrieve it without any hassle. Breakfast offered a typical Brazilian spread—fresh bread, eggs, ham, papaya, melon, and yogurt. While the flavors leaned sweet, which might not suit everyone’s taste (especially those with a Chinese palate), it was still fresh and satisfying. Overall, this hotel delivers excellent value for money, combining comfort, convenience, and friendly service. Highly recommend for travelers who want a no-frills yet reliable base in Copacabana.
I stayed at Ibis Copacabana Posto 2 and had a fantastic experience. The hotel is perfectly located—just a short walk from Copacabana Beach, with plenty of bars, restaurants, boutiques, and shops nearby, including places to pick up some fun Hawaiian-style clothing. It’s also close to the Cardeal Arco Verde metro station, making it easy to explore Rio by public transit. The staff were friendly, professional, and always willing to help. Clean rooms, great value, and central location—this is an ideal choice if you're looking for a comfortable, affordable stay in the heart of Rio. Highly recommended!
I stayed here for the second time and I can confidently say it’s one of the best budget-friendly options in Rio. The location is perfect—right in the heart of the city, just a short walk from major attractions and public transit. The room was clean, well-maintained, and surprisingly spacious for the price. Everything felt fresh and hygienic, which is always a plus when traveling. Breakfast was excellent—hot, tasty, and with a great variety of options, including fresh fruit, pastries, and strong coffee. It made starting the day so much better. I’ve already recommended this hotel to friends and will definitely be back. A fantastic value stay in a vibrant part of Rio.
Staying at Copacabana Palace was an absolute delight—right in the heart of Rio's most iconic area, with the beach just steps away. The property is beautifully landscaped and even features a few small animals that the kids absolutely loved spotting throughout the gardens. It’s such a unique touch that made our family trip extra special. The rooms are elegant and spacious, and the staff go above and beyond to make you feel welcome. Perfect for families looking for luxury with a personal touch. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Rio—this place truly lives up to its reputation.
Everything was perfect—felt like coming home the moment we walked in. The staff went above and beyond with their kindness and attention to detail, making our stay truly memorable. A special shoutout to Letitia at reception—her warm welcome and genuine care made a big difference. The rooftop view is absolutely breathtaking, offering panoramic glimpses of the city and ocean that take your breath away. It’s not just a hotel; it’s an experience. We’ll definitely be back.
The hotel is about a 40-minute drive from the airport, perfectly situated between Ipanema and Copacabana beaches. Just step outside, cross the street, and you're right on the sand—fine, soft sand that feels like magic beach powder under your feet. Every staff member we met was incredibly polite and genuinely warm, always greeting guests with a smile. The pool area is stunning, and the view from outside—where mountains meet the ocean—is absolutely breathtaking, especially at sunset. We spent two full days just relaxing by the pool and on the beach, doing nothing but soaking in the vibe. We checked in early and were initially assigned a sea-view room at the end of the building, but my husband wanted something better, so we switched rooms twice before landing on a great one. It was worth the effort. The only downside? The price is steep—nearly $400 per night—but honestly, given the location, service, and overall experience, it’s not unreasonable. It’s just hard on the wallet when you’re budget-conscious!
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.
Absolutely outstanding stay at this hotel! Its location is perfect—just steps away from all the vibrant energy of Rio. The breakfast was delicious and plentiful, and the amenities truly elevated the entire experience. A huge thank you to the entire team, especially Sascha—he made me feel genuinely welcome with his warm hospitality and attention to detail. Every moment felt special, and I can’t recommend this place enough. Would 100% return.
The hotel is absolutely fantastic! While the rooms are a bit dated, they’re clean, well-maintained, and surprisingly comfortable. What really stood out was the daily complimentary treats—two chocolates and 2 to 4 bottles of water per day. Small touches, but they made a big difference. The real highlight? The stunning ocean view. I highly recommend booking a sea-view room—just step outside and cross the street to reach the beach. You’ll be greeted by endless blue skies, gentle waves, and that iconic Rio coastline right at your doorstep. It’s incredibly convenient for exploring the city too, with easy access to public transit. If you're looking for a relaxing yet central stay in Rio de Janeiro, this is definitely the place to be. A perfect blend of comfort, location, and value—10/10 without a doubt!
