I stayed at Ipanema Inn for a few nights during a solo trip to Rio and would stay again if I’m back. From check-in to assisting with booking any tours/tickets/dinner reservations Fred at the front desk was always so helpful and greeted me by name every time he was there. Fred made it so easy to plan my adventures, helped with suggestions anytime I needed, was very responsive on WhatsApp when I was out exploring Rio, and spoke great English which helped my lack of Portuguese. The rest of the staff was also great and friendly. The hotel restaurant is nicely decorated and had a delicious and varied breakfast that looked much betterhan what some other hotels in the area offered. I had the filet for dinner at the hotel one night that was perfectly cooked and the fruit tartar desert was delicious. The hotel is centrally located in Ipanema and was a quick walk to nearby restaurants, bars, beach, Arpoador/Leblon were a short ~15 min walk away, and so easy to get an Uber for anywhere else in Rio. I felt very safe walking around the hotel area alone even at night. Being able to grab a beach towel from the front desk and walk straight down the street to the beach chair/umbrella stand (included if you tell them your staying at the inn) made it so easy to enjoy a perfect beach day (although there are also some nicer looking beach clubs a short walk either direction on the beach that I’d check out too). Thanks Ipanema Inn (and Fred) for making my stay in Rio great!

Overall a very nice hotel in great area. Rooms are on the small side. Noisy ac. Terrible shower, worse than a budget hotel along a freeway. Should have long been replaced by something more appropriate for this price range

Highly recommended Ipanema hotel
Posted 27 Apr 2024 on HotelsThe perfect hotel - very friendly and helpful staff. Great location - one block from both the beach and the metro. Breakfast sets you up well for the day. Comfy bed. I’d definitely stay again.

Great Location
Posted 10 Apr 2024 on HotelsThe Ipanema Inn is a standard beach hotel. It was in a great location near the beach and restaurants. It is a great hotel for solo travelers. It is convenient and the amenities are great. I would definitely stay again.

The location of the Ipanema Inn is fantastic - it's just a couple of blocks from the beach and they offer complimentary umbrella and chair service. The breakfast was one of the best we've seen at a hotel and the staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. We will definitely return!
