Fodor's "The flagship of the Brazilian Othon chain, this 30-story hotel is not new, and its ambience is functional rather than luxurious."
Time Out "Unspoilt views along Copacabana and very close to Ipanema, The Othon Palace is well located to get the best of both neighbourhoods and their beaches." Full review

ake your drink to the poolside and make the most of the view over to Sugarloaf Mountain, or head inside to the Lobby Bar where live music can be found from the afternoon.
Star Service "Toward the Ipanema end of the Copacabana strip, this property is Othon's proud flagship." Full review

Avoid the unrenovated units on lower floors as they suffer from traffic noise and rickety furnishings.

Frommer's "If design is not your thing, you can get much more room for the money staying somewhere else." Full review
Concierge "When the Hotel Fasano opened in 2007, it radically changed Rio's hotel scene, turning some of Brazil's costliest square footage on Ipanema's prized beachfront into a temple to high design."
Fodor's "The Italian-owned Fasano Group is renowned for its stylish, elegant hotels and restaurants, and Fasano Rio has the added glamour of having been crafted by the French designer Philippe Starck." Full review
Insight Guides "Rio’s most fashionable (and expensive) boutique hotel since opening in 2007."
Travel + Leisure "The 91 rooms are spare and breezy with white walls, leather-upholstered Mies daybeds, Amazonian wood side tables, and at least two burnished Sergio Rodriguez chairs." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Before this discreet, sophisticated five-star hotel opened in 2007, Ipanema and Leblon had no truly world-class luxury hotels."
Time Out "Still the hottest kid on the Ipanema block, the Fasano raised the bar for Rio's luxury hotels when it opened in 2007, forcing even the Copacabana Palace to sit up and take notice." Full review
Star Service "As the premier boutique design hotel in the city, the Fasano is the hot place to rub shoulders with the hip people in Rio." Full review
