 | |  |  | Praia Ipanema Hotel: This location + this view = PARADISE! Compare Rates NEW! | Tip Rating:   Satisfaction:   |  |  | |  |
A good, solid, better-than-basic hotel...the facilities don't seem to have been updated or renovated since the 1970's but it's a cool throwback in time really, everything is neat and clean and the staff is easygoing and pleasant. And with the oceanview right outside your window and the ocean itself just a few steps across the street, you cannot beat this deal. We got a wonderful corporate rate but even the posted rack rates aren't the worst in the world for what you get. That view is worth its weight in gold!
There's a rooftop, postage-stamp pool, no use for any Olympic training, but check it out and turn your head around to the east and there you go, Christ the Redeemer his own self! A very nice breakfast buffet is included in every room rate, make sure you don't miss out on this bonus, downstairs in the restaurant with more great beach views, 6a-10a daily. Just get there at the right moment and not five minutes later or all the cheesebread balls will be gone...mmmmm....;-) Leave a Comment Theme: HotelPrice: US$40-80 » Currency ConverterComparison: less expensive than averageAddress: Av.

| | | | Marina Palace: Excellent Hotel! Compare Rates NEW! | Tip Rating: Satisfaction: | | | | |
The Marina Palace is located in Leblon, a more upsacle area of Rio, right in front of Leblon beach. I stayed here for 3 nights with my kids and had a very good time.
We had a triple room , which was large, nicely decorated , with airconditioned and comfortable beds. The bathroom was luxurious, with marble and very good toiletries. We had a view of the beach which was amazing. The hotel features a small pool on the terrace with a bar.
The breakfast was plentiful, with cheeses, cold meats, tropical fruits and juices , some warm items and a large variety of cakes and breads.
Staff were all very helpful and friendly and gave me very good advise on restaurants to have dinner. They also have free internet at the business center. The hotel also has a part of the front beach reserved for its guests with chairs sun blinds.
By the time of my stay a brazilian soap opera was being filmed at the lobby and at the beachfront of the hotel. It also passed in Portugal's tv so it was very fun to watch all the actors I already knew from tv filming alive.
