Malo- Ruidoso - imposible dormir.
Estábamos en la mejor pieza, bastante cara, 500 US la noche, la vista espectacular, pero realmente el ruido es espantoso, no se puede dormir en toda la noche, los 6 dias , todos fiesta , gritos, carreras de motos, borrachos peleando, camiones sacando escombros, ruidos de botellas, musica a todo volumen. Pero realmente las 6 noches!! hasta las 6 de la mañana, que amanecian los borrachos durmiendo en la playa. Les comentamos al hotel porque deberian tener doble vidrio, pero ... nada. Realmente No recomiendo el Hotel. Un desastre. Lo otro malo es que no hay nada para comer despues d elas 11 PM.

Great location. Friendly staff, especially check-in team during the day. Rooms are small and comfortable. Waiters were very friendly but food is definitely below par. Would have expected better food all around for the place.

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
We knew when we walked into the hotel we made a mistake. Small- lobby is big enough for 2 people in line which is the same path to the restaurant, worse off is the path to the beach, which is a little gross when you’re eating. The 2 elevators fit 3 people, hallways to the rooms are narrow. the room which consists of 2 nightstands, one with a child size chair, bed and wall mounted tv. We upgraded to an oceanfront balcony room for a 7 day stay,($3400 usd) to enjoy coffee, cocktails and meals. No furniture at all except a hanging hammock. No place to sit and eat in the room except the bed. Noise- ridiculous level of noise throughout the entire stay- cobbled stone road beneath the balconies. Motorcycles, carts, and anything else just rumbled, as well as party goers. One night laying awake like we had every night- we looked at each other and just laughed about the noise-, who would have thought. Food- hit or miss very inconsistent Front desk/associates mixed reviews on helpfulness/attitude Recommendations- we originally were going to stay at the Fairmont at Copacabana Beach, but got hooked by a “pricing special by Arpoador. Stay at one of the 30-ish great hotels at Copa and walk to Ipanema. We tried to share our feedback with the Mgr speaking with 6 associates at the front desk over our stay- He never got back to us. I’ve traveled to 2 destinations every year for 20 years & have never written a bad review and now you know

Lovely boutique hotel in Ipanema
We loved this beautifully designed and comfortable hotel-- it is rare in Copacabana and Ipanema, since it is right on the beach, rather than across a busy street, as most of the other local hotels are. I would recommend an ocean view room-- from what I could tell some of the rooms are smaller and there is nothing nicer than waking up to the sound of waves. We ate most of our meals here-- delicious, and breakfast is generous and cooked to order. Wonderful beach with umbrellas and chairs, though the rooftop pool is small, not for swimming.

Staff was great Restaurant service a little slow. It seems kitchen staff is not very well organized. Waiters and staff (specially in leisure business) should put an effort to learn a little english to comunicante better with guests. Some areas of the Hotel seem a little deteriorated. Which makes it look unmaintained. Special mention to Marcus who was VERY HELPFUL with us. Overall we had a good experience. Thank you all at Arporador!! :)

It’s a small hotel, so the floors are pretty quiet. The restaurant / bar is as close to ‘on the beach’ as you can get. A few steps from the amenities of Ipanema Amazing views from the rooftop
