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.

Staying at Hostel Varandas do Maracanã was an absolute highlight of my trip to Rio! The staff, especially Claudia, went above and beyond—so friendly, helpful, and professional. Every interaction felt genuine and welcoming. The hostel is spotless—clean rooms, tidy common areas, and immaculate bathrooms. It’s clear they take pride in their hygiene and upkeep.

I returned to Sofitel Rio de Janeiro Ipanema for a two-week stay in December and stayed in an oceanfront king room. This property continues to impress across every aspect—just as I remembered from past visits, and even better this time around. The hotel is impeccably maintained, with elegant interiors and a warm, inviting atmosphere. Staff are genuinely welcoming, always going the extra mile with smiles and thoughtful service. The breakfast buffet offers classic Brazilian flavors with a wide variety of options, though it feels a bit repetitive day after day. A rotating international section—maybe some Asian-inspired dishes—would add welcome variety. The pool area is fantastic: perfect for relaxing during the day, and the evening live entertainment is consistently high-quality and entertaining. I’m especially impressed by the fitness center—it’s one of the best in all of Rio, well-equipped and spacious. Under General Manager Netto Moreira’s leadership, the hotel runs like a well-oiled machine. Every detail reflects care and attention. It’s clear this team takes pride in delivering excellence. For travelers seeking comfort, style, and top-tier hospitality in Ipanema, this is a standout choice.
Unfortunately, my experience was quite negative due to the lack of signage and lighting in the backyard, making the area extremely unsafe for elderly guests and children. I didn’t stay overnight—I only booked a day-use option through the platform for my birthday celebration and that of a close friend. As shown in photo 20, there’s a gap beside the staircase leading down to the yard, which becomes completely invisible at night because there’s no lighting in the area. While descending the stairs, I tripped over the gap and hit my head on a stone, resulting in six stitches above my eyebrow. To clarify—no alcohol was consumed during this incident. This could have easily turned into a much more serious accident. I reported the issue to the couple managing the booking, but they showed no intention to address or fix the hazard. Aside from that, there’s nothing else to comment on since I didn’t actually stay overnight. My only warning to future guests: this property is not recommended for families with young children or older adults due to the significant safety risks.
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.
We stayed at Gallant Hotel with a group of five, and it was an excellent choice for our trip to Rio.

Breakfast was diverse, delicious, and generously served—perfect way to start the day. Overall, we were thoroughly impressed by the comfort, service, and value. I’d definitely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Rio, and I’m already planning to stay here again on our next visit.
