As many other have pointed out, the location is absolutely perfectly situated near both main beaches, and the front desk staff were very helpful and efficient. The rooftop bar and restaurant was also terrific.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The hotel and service are excellent and the location is fabulous. A couple of suggestions to make it even better: 1. The shower in our room (804) leaks flooding the bathroom. Could this be fixed? 2. Coffee and tea facilities as well as a paper tissue box are standard amenities that were missing. 3. The hotel is by the beach, yet there is no shower or even a tap by the entrance, forcing guests to enter the lobby and their rooms covered in sand. 4. There are no umbrellas for the guests, and we were forced to leave under the rain (again, a standard amenity. Apart from those details, everything was perfect.

A great hotel, on Ipanema Beach.

The Arena Ipanema is a great hotel, located three doors down from Ipanema Beach. The rooms are clean and bright, and the maid service is careful and thorough. The front-desk staff has speaks multiple languages, including English, Spanish, and of course Portuguese. The morning breakfast is plentiful, with lots of variety.

Just behind Ipanema beach and Aproador rocks. Very short walk to Copacabana beach. Couldn’t have been better located. They take security of guests very seriously and you can opt in to use facial recognition to access the hotel at night.

Perfectly located, so close to Ipanema beach and short distance to Copacabana beach. Clean, modern, great included breakfast. Nice roofdeck with small pool and bar/restaurant…and amazing views of the beach and mountains. Lovely spot to chill in late afternoon and enjoy sunset and a cocktail. Efficient, friendly, helpful service throughout. Short walk into town for shopping, restos and farmer’s markets. Price was very reasonable. Will definitely stay there again.
