The location and staff couldn't be better. Excellent breakfast with some different dishes every day. The view from the pool deck is wonderful with views from Leblon to Red (devil's) beach and right in front of Arpoador beach. We had a nice view of the park next to us that provides a short cut to Arpoador beach. All of the staff was helpful but in particular Cristiane Alexandre. She knew all the best options on how to get me to the Salgueiro Samba School practice and as a result I had an experience of a lifetime attending the high energy samba of my favorite Samba school! This is probably the safest version of this type of event as you have a shuttle or private car directly to the event and the event is not inside or nearby the slums. Moreover Salgueiro invites other samba schools regularly so you may get to see 2 if you're willing to stay later than 1AM. I also had the need of a plug adapter late on Saturday to do some remote work. Nothing was open to buy one but Cristiane was resourceful and though they didn't have one at the front desk she found someone that delivered me an adapter and I was able to meet my work deadline. Finally when Kiwi.com sent me an email telling me that our flight had been changed forward by 1 day (I received the email ~ 2h before my flight but didn't see it till 1h before the new flight time) she once again helped me locate the proper number to call of the airline (Kiwi never again) and I was able to get my original flight back. If you can stay at Arena Ipanema hotel do it. It's walking distance to many good bar/restaurants and fairly safe given the continued and very visible presence of police in the area (including mounted police in the park).

The best value near Ipanema beach, in my opinion. The rooftop is spectacular and spacious, with views out to the ocean, the beach, the mountains, the islands - even Cristo and Pao de acucar can be spotted from the roof. Sunset was gorgeous. Of course, the view is not unobstructed, but that was expected, given the hotel's location. It was less obstructed than I expected, however. The pool is relatively small, but given how spacious the rooftop is, we didn't mind. We also appreciated that much of the roof is shaded, as the Rio sun can be relentless. The staff were very helpful with trying to meet our needs, and I appreciated the presence of security at the front door at all times, given the unique challenges that Rio has. The room had excellent AC and was more spacious than expected. I was in an "01" room - located at the end of the hall. If you can, request one of these rooms, as they seem to be larger than the others. Water pressure in the shower was amazing. The room in general was modern enough and very clean. Housekeeping was excellent and daily.

Philip

The location right near Aproador is outstanding. You have direct access to one of the best of Rio's beaches. And the atmosphere created by the saxophone played in the nearby park was special. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. This is a shoutout to Lourenco and others in the restaurant/upstairs bar who refilled my water bottle a countless number of times...with a smile. This is another shoutout to the concierge who helped us access our luggage multiple times on the day that we had checked out and were waiting to go to the airport. The breakfast buffet, too, was quite extensive and satisfying.

Anne

The night staff at the reception desk was really just a filler. No service whatsoever. The day manager was terrific. They had problems handling the holiday crowd at the bar, which it seems they should have prepared for. But they didn't provide any credit or anything for over an hour wait for drinks. The upstairs rooftop was terrific with beautiful views, but the rooms are quite plain. We had an amazing Spanish meal at the hotel restaurant. So a little mixed, the managers were great but some of the rest of the service was confused and not very good

Nancy

The Arena Hotel is a nice hotel with the advantage that it is located at the point where Ipanema and Copacabana meet so quick and easy to walk to either. It has a small but pleasant pool on the roof with views over a small beach. The room was comfortable with a good shower. Staff were friendly and helpful. I know many of the main hotels in the area but will return to the Arena next time as it has the right balance of comfort, location and price.
