The location of this hotel is amazing, right on the beach with a restaurant overlooking the beautiful sea. Being so close to the beach in this city was a great advantage. The breakfast provided was delicious and the staff members were friendly and helpful.
Nothing to mention.

We had an amazing time at a hotel located in a fantastic area. The staff was friendly and spoke excellent English. The rooms were spotless and the restaurant was convenient. We especially loved our sea view room, listening to the soothing sound of the ocean. We were so impressed that we immediately booked another room for our return to the city.

Everything was fantastic here! The location is amazing, right on the beachfront in a very safe area. The service was top-notch - the staff were always willing to assist with everything from room service to airport shuttle transportation. I especially enjoyed the heated swimming pool and the rooftop pool with breathtaking views. The sun loungers and beach umbrellas were a great touch, too.
I would definitely recommend this place to my friends and family.

If you're looking for a prime beachfront location, Hotel Arpoador is the place to be. You can step right out onto the beautiful fine sand beach and enjoy the stunning views of the ocean. It's the perfect spot for people-watching and taking in the lively atmosphere of the beach. The rooms are spacious and clean, providing a comfortable space to relax after a day of sun and sand. The breakfast offers a variety of delicious options to start your day off right. Plus, the friendly staff goes above and beyond to ensure a memorable stay.
One slight drawback is that the prices at the hotel's restaurant can be higher compared to nearby eateries. However, with the favorable exchange rate, it's still reasonable.

The location of the hotel was fantastic, close to both Ipanema Beach and Copacabana Beach. It was great to have the option to visit different restaurants and bars in both areas. One of the best things about the location was that it was very close to the water, allowing me to hear the soothing sound of the waves throughout my stay. Another advantage was the proximity to a popular rock formation where I could watch the beautiful sunset.
The room I stayed in was quite small, not leaving much space to comfortably open my suitcases. Although the rooftop pool was nice, it was on the smaller side.

Everything is what i need and want.

Our stay at the beautiful hotel in Ipanema was exceptional. The room had a breathtaking beach view, perfect for vegetarians and vegans like us. The restaurant offered delicious vegetarian options. The small but relaxing pool was a great way to unwind. The shuttle service, provided by the friendly and punctual driver Genesio, made our airport transfers hassle-free.
Felt cared for, no reason to complain.
