Frommer's "The only budget-priced oceanfront hotel in Ipanema, the Arpoador Inn enjoys a privileged location on a quiet stretch of beach popular with the surf crowd." Full review
Travel + Leisure "With six floors, this 1970s-era budget hotel has just palm trees and a cobbled, local-traffic road between it and Arpoador Beach." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Charmingly located right on the sand, this little tower block offers functional and basic rooms and facilities."
Time Out "Billing itself as the only hotel from Leme to Leblon located right on the beach... here you step more or less right out of the lobby onto the golden sands of Arpoador." Full review
Fodor's "At sunset the view from the landmark rock that juts out into the ocean at the end of the beach is one of Rio's most beautiful." Full review
