Noise isolation non-existent

The room was facing the main street and noise isolation was non-existent. In fact, there were visible physical holes between the window and the wall, which let all the noise from the street inside the room. Since this was a Friday night and there are night clubs next to the hotel, it felt like I was on the dance floor and not in my bed. Noise islolation between the connecting rooms was also non-existebt. The guy next door had a stomach bug and was very ill all night. I heard -everything-. Breakfast was ok/average. Staff were kind and helpful. Sadly, I cannot recommend this hotel.

Good location -near the beach , Lagoa, shopping ,and plenty of nearby bars and restaurants . Beach towels and umbrella provided. Rooftop bar area a bit disappointing.

The hotel is under renovations but do not bother your stay. Very friendly staff and great location.
Fernando, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

We stayed in a regular room, everything was good but the AC. Not sure if it was because it was hot outside but AC was at 17° C and it felt like 23 C. A central metal piece of the window was loose and it make some noise as the AC was an old model and it shakes while it was working. Real highlight here is that everything else was fantastic.

Way better than my previous hotel …. Sanitary …& quiet … staff was helpful and very pleasant … The gym was fantastic as well as the breakfast although I wish they had mango slices but not a big deal …Wish I had stayed here for my entire trip instead but I’ll know for next time which will be soon anyway

Our stay was great and the staff was great. My only issues were water leaking from the AC unit and somewhere else in the bathroom causing some wet areas on the floor.

Great location, friendly staff

This is a nice hotel with very friendly staff. It is a little overpriced now, but prices have increased a lot in Rio. You are paying for the location, near the beach and in one of the safest neighborhoods in Rio.

Location is awesome. Beds and room were clean. Staff is friendly and helpful. I’d stay here again because the price is reasonable for the location. But - the Sink would back up. Grout on shower tiles was black. WiFi has no password so it was overwhelmed and useless.
Thomas, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Stay away! I booked 2 rooms (connecting), they instead gave me a single room with a double bed. Bait and switch by the hotel. Terrible manager on site, did not care. Had to call credit card to dispute charge. Left the property and booked another. Saw another person complaining while I was there too. Seams like a typical story at this hotel. So many other options in Rio. Pick another!!
Ian, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

I recently stayed at the Mar Ipanema Hotel and it was an absolute nightmare. First and foremost, the cleanliness of the hotel is appalling. There is mold growing in the bathroom, and the windows are so filthy you can barely see through them. It’s clear that housekeeping is not a priority here. The noise levels are unbearable. There is continuous construction on the 5th floor during the day, and the noise permeates through the entire hotel. It's impossible to get any rest or relaxation with the constant hammering and drilling. Moreover, the area around the hotel feels unsafe. I did not feel comfortable walking around the neighborhood, especially at night. Overall, I would never stay at the Mar Ipanema Hotel again. It was a deeply disappointing and unpleasant experience. Save yourself the trouble and find somewhere else to stay.
Luiz, 6-night trip

4/10 Fair

My recent stay at the Mar Ipanema Hotel was nothing short of a disaster. The lack of cleanliness was immediately evident, with mold visibly growing in the bathroom and windows that were covered in grime, making it nearly impossible to see outside. It's apparent that cleanliness is severely neglected here. The noise level was intolerable. There is ongoing construction on the 5th floor during the day, and the loud noise reverberates throughout the entire hotel. Finding any peace or quiet is out of the question with the incessant banging and drilling. Additionally, the hotel is situated in an unsafe area. I felt uneasy walking around the neighborhood, particularly after dark. In conclusion, I would never consider staying at the Mar Ipanema Hotel again. It was an extremely disappointing and unpleasant experience. Do yourself a favor and choose a different place to stay.

Bom

Pontos positivos: - Atendimento dos funcionários - Localização Pontos negativos: - Colchão, uma vez que não é ortopédico (com molas desgastadas e desconfortantes) - Rodízio inadequado das toalhas do banheiro. Por vezes as tolhas eram de boa qualidade, outros dias eram desgastadas e ruins - Altura do som (música) inadequada do salão do café da manhã

melhor localização em Ipanema após frente praia

cafe deixa a desejar no geral, mas principalmete pelo desconforto que é se abaixar e pegar louca. manjutencao em geral do hotel tbem deixa a desejar, a exemplo do "tapete" nas janelas dos quartos para abafar ruido de chuva e q se encontrava em pessimo estado na suite 607 p.ex.
