"The flagship of the Brazilian Othon chain, this 30-story hotel is not new, and its ambience is functional rather than luxurious."
Time Out

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.

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

"On a good day, the leafy suburb of Joá lies just 20 minutes by cab from Ipanema; given Rio's congested traffic, however, the trip can easily take more than an hour."

"Rio’s finest boutique hotel overlooks the exclusive Joatinga beach. Each of its seven rooms is painted a different color and has a lush marble bathroom to match."

And who needs Ipanema (a 15-minute drive away) when you have two swanky hotel pools to choose from—both with breathtaking ocean and mountain views—and Joatinga Beach, a secluded surfer's paradise, just down the road.

"Seven rooms is about as intimate as it gets, and as rooms, they’re remarkable — well-designed, individual, luxe but not ostentatious, and best of all, all seven take advantage of the phenomenal view" Full review
