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

Incredible location. This beautifully designed boutique hotel was just perfect in every way… make sure you book the ocean view room and enjoy the nights music, ocean waves whilst relaxing in the hammock. The team went out of their way to make you feel welcomed. Or simply enjoy watching the sunset on the rooftop… incredible stay.. thankyou

Although a great location for access to Ipanema beaches, the hotel appeared run down, provided no amenities you'd expect given the hotel cost. Noisy at night and not a comfortable stay.

Staff friendly and very helpful. Best location. Breakfast amazing. Sauna in rooftop, right on beach.
Cons: do not get the massage they were not good. Esp lymph massage, asked several times for some pressure and nothing was changed.
Major con: there is NO INDOOR SHOWER or place to use if your room is not ready or you have a late flight. They only have one outdoor shower. Very few amenities. Room is tiny.

Cool hotel. Perfect location. Great service. Small but decent rooms. Loved the pool area. And right on the beach. Restaurant is ok (dont order the cacio e pepe and fillet) but there are so many others walking distance. Breakfast is great. Couldnt recommend this hotel enough.

This hotel is amazing… nice design, cool ambiance, the breakfast next to the beach is a must have!
I really enjoy it. Only negative points the bedrooms on the city side are very noisy until super late (many cars and buses) and poorly soundproofed. The rooms on the ocean side has a stunning view. I really love it!

Coolest vibes in town with simplicity but sense of service.
They took well cared of me and everything went great. If you need to book a massage, ask for Miguel.
The breakfast is very tasty and healthy.
Location is great.
Can’t recommend enough!

This is an excellent boutique hotel. The rooms were clean, the hotel is very well situated on the beach in a quiet area of Ipanema. The included breakfast was excellent but what made this Joel stand out were the workers. Ana Paola our breakfast waitress could not do enough for us. She was so sweet. Rodrigo the bartender ion the rooftop bar made the best caipirinhas was so helpful explaining the city to us he made us feel like family. Toth our diner waiter was awesome. He catered to every need. Bruno at reception could not be nicer. Also very helpful. In general everyone was nice but the ones mentioned made our stay extra special. We thank them for their hospitality and making us feel so at home and welcome in Rio. Our first visit and surely not our last.

We just stayed at Hotel Arpoador for 8 nights. It was a wonderful stay! The rooms are small, but we’ll appointed! You can not beat the location and dining with a view of the ocean and mountains. But was most special was the staff. Everyone and I mean everyone went the extra mile. Micael checked us in, checked on us the next day and was so welcoming! Toth, Alex and Rapha were just wonderful to us. We could not have had a better vacation. We loved Rio and everyone at the Hotel Arpoador.

We absolutely loved our stay at Arpoador. It was very convenient, close to everything. Walkable distance from copacabana, ipanema and leblon, and close to famous bars and restaurants such as Belmonte. The restaurant Arp is beach front, the little street that has access to the beach is fully secured and has a view to the arpoador rock and morro dois irmaos. Totally recommend and cant wait to go back!!
Only downside is that the TV doesnt have the option to use streaming channels and the only channels available are local Brazilian ones. Considering this is a very international spot and many guests are from abroad, Arpodor should really consider upgrading the TV system.

We wanted to stay at Arpoador because we had previously been to the restaurant and had a great experience in terms of food, service and ambiance.
We weren’t disappointed when we booked our room. If we ever tome back to Rio we will definitely stay there again.The staff can’t do enough for you, even arranged our last minute transfer to Ilha Grande. We had to leave early before breakfast was ready but they made a bag of sandwiches, biscuits and water for the minibus. Other hotels could learn a lot from Arpoador.
