The hotel is conveniently located between Copacabana and Ipanema, making it easy to reach the beach in just 5 minutes. The rooms are beautifully decorated and offer a good bathroom with tasteful decor. However, some receptionists could come off as slightly rude at times. The dining options include both hot and cold dishes with an abundance of fresh fruits. The facilities are well-kept, providing a pleasant stay overall.
The hotel is situated between Copacabana and Ipanema, offering a convenient location close to the metro and just a stone's throw from Ipanema Beach. The rooms boast a lovely design, but some issues with the air conditioning dripping. The service, while attentive at all times, had some instances of rudeness, especially from the receptionists. The dining experience was delightful with a variety of fruits and both hot and cold options. The overall price was slightly high but still a good value compared to other nearby properties.
I was delighted with this hotel's prime location nestled between Copacabana and Ipanema, making it easy to reach the famous beaches and nearby attractions. The rooms were elegantly decorated, boasting stunning views and equipped with both a shower and a bath. The service was top-notch, though some staff members were a bit rude. The dining options were fantastic with a variety of fruits and hot/cold choices, but the cream cakes were a bit disappointing. Overall, this hotel is a great choice for its location and charming rooms.
