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."

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
