"This beachside fourstar hotel is the Ipanema representative of the Best Western chain. Rooms are a little small with standard hotel furnish ings. The higher floors are quieter."
Time Out
"The rooms are clean, well equipped and unremarkable affairs, but if you have the beach view and the sun is out then the lack of luxury indoors is probably going to be the least of your considerations." Full review

"The three-pearl Casa Beleza offers a tropical hideaway from the sometimes overwhelming and crowded beach scene of Copacabana and Ipanema." Full review
Time Out
