10/10 Exceptional

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.

Special hotel
Excellent hotel, we had the best time. Breakfast was a special highlight with a sea view. Special shout out to Nicolas Swan, he really made us feel welcome and couldn’t have done anything more, an asset to the hotel.

Enhanced beauty
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.
