Although a great location for access to Ipanema beaches, the hotel appeared run down, provided no amenities you'd expect given the hotel cost. Noisy at night and not a comfortable stay.

Staff friendly and very helpful. Best location. Breakfast amazing. Sauna in rooftop, right on beach. Cons: do not get the massage they were not good. Esp lymph massage, asked several times for some pressure and nothing was changed. Major con: there is NO INDOOR SHOWER or place to use if your room is not ready or you have a late flight. They only have one outdoor shower. Very few amenities. Room is tiny.

Cool hotel. Perfect location. Great service. Small but decent rooms. Loved the pool area. And right on the beach. Restaurant is ok (dont order the cacio e pepe and fillet) but there are so many others walking distance. Breakfast is great. Couldnt recommend this hotel enough.

This is an excellent boutique hotel. The rooms were clean, the hotel is very well situated on the beach in a quiet area of Ipanema. The included breakfast was excellent but what made this Joel stand out were the workers. Ana Paola our breakfast waitress could not do enough for us. She was so sweet. Rodrigo the bartender ion the rooftop bar made the best caipirinhas was so helpful explaining the city to us he made us feel like family. Toth our diner waiter was awesome. He catered to every need. Bruno at reception could not be nicer. Also very helpful. In general everyone was nice but the ones mentioned made our stay extra special. We thank them for their hospitality and making us feel so at home and welcome in Rio. Our first visit and surely not our last.

We just stayed at Hotel Arpoador for 8 nights. It was a wonderful stay! The rooms are small, but we’ll appointed! You can not beat the location and dining with a view of the ocean and mountains. But was most special was the staff. Everyone and I mean everyone went the extra mile. Micael checked us in, checked on us the next day and was so welcoming! Toth, Alex and Rapha were just wonderful to us. We could not have had a better vacation. We loved Rio and everyone at the Hotel Arpoador.
