Mar Ipanema Hotel

The staff was especially attentive and solved a major problem we had with a tour operator. The hotel manager was excellent in addressing our issue with the tour operator and was able to get our money refunded. When we had issues with our safe (the battery), the staff immediately addressed it. The location is one block from the Ipanema Beach! The hotel provides towels and umbrellas free-of-charge. There are wonderful restaurants nearby -- too many to choose from!

Best possible location you could stay at, for first-timers in Rio. The area is very walkable even in the evening. Going to the beach also works very spontaneously as it‘s a 2 min walk from the hotel. Breakfast was rich in options and very tasty. The Staff made us feel like we were taken good care off and always there to support us. Big thank you to them! The room is also very comfortable and has a good layout. Was cleaned daily.

I stayed here with my 14 year old daughter. It was a lovely hotel close to everything. Fantastic Breakfast!!! Great Location. Nice Room. Marvelous View from 11th floor on the lake and Christo. Cool Roofterrace. Friendly Staff. I believe the hotel lets you borrow chairs and a beach umbrella for free. I did not take the opportunity because of the 'cold' weather but it's a nice gesture.

Nice room, not huge and no balcony. But friendly and well run. The bar on the ground floor is a great place to hang out at night, good music and atmosphere. The best thing is that it’s in a busy, well lit and safe street, with all the shops and services you need close by. (the beachfront two blocks away doesn’t feel so safe at night)

Prime location in Ipanema, close to restaurants and commerce but still within minutes from the beach. Renovated room on P level, especially large bathroom Nice staff support
