I think they may have taken pity on me because I looked so tired and awful that they allowed us to check in early. Luis at the front desk help us book all of our tours and gave us recommendations for restaurants. We added the breakfast to our stay which was a good mix of all kinds of fruit, breads and other breakfast items. Coffee, tea and juice were brought to the table. Totally worth it before the long tour days. The area felt very safe. We walked around at night with no issues. There is Fort Copacabana across the street so that might have been a part of the safety. I highly recommend this hotel.

Orla Copacabana is the first hotel I stayed at in Rio. The best part about this hotel is the…read morelocation. It's a stones throw away from Ipanema and directly in front of Copacabana beach. Plenty of restaurants and markets nearby to choose from. The rooms are clean and basic. It's pretty much the standard for hotels I've stayed at internationally. If you are expecting the 2,900 square foot Hangover Suite at Caesars Palace, you'll be very disappointed. It's real "standard", nothing fancy. (FYI, for fancy try Rio Sofitel, but there's a big price difference) Breakfast each morning was good and the staff was always friendly and accommodating. Overall I found this hotel acceptable. One of the the better locations but not my first choice when in Rio.

Terrible. I would avoid it at all cost…read more I had a horrible experience with this hotel. I booked it for 3 nights for almost $900 USD. Unfortunately, I could not travel to Brazil due to a very recent visa requirement for US citizens.  With the help of hotels.com I managed to cancel the booking. This hotel categorically refused to give me a single penny back. I am business savvy and understand the inconvenience of last minute cancellations on a business like this. However, there is a fine line here. Under the circumstances, I would have deemed a partial refund more than fair. But simply pocketing every single penny under the excuse of a cancellation policy is simply a disguised form of theft. It is short term greedy and not a good business practice

The hotel does not provide wash rags so be advised to bring your own. The bathrooms are nice with a spacious shower which is good. Mini fridge is stocked with beverages for purchase. The AC is the best part of the hotel because it does get super cold. I will advise that you DO NOT order room service!!! We ordered it on our last night here because of rain and staying in before our flight. It was the worst room service i've ever experienced. The sandwiches were toasted but also soggy? The turkey club was quite frankly pathetic and the fries were soggy. The churros were also raw in the middle. I would advise you to pick a different hotel if possible.

Another sensational visit at Fasano in December 2023, following a visit in August 2023…read more I cannot speak highly enough about this hotel and staff. Arriving early in the week I was upgraded to a 4th floor oceanfront room at no extra charge (YMMV as it depends upon occupancy/availability). Prior to my visit I had inquired about a Business Center with access to a desktop computer, as they have at Fasano São Paulo. This hotel does not have a Business Center but they provided me with use of a Dell laptop for my entire stay which was already set up and ready for me to use as soon as I walked into my room. Unlike a few others that have posted on Yelp, I have found the front desk staff to be exceptionally friendly and helpful. They offered numerous dining and other useful tips during my stay. I am no rock star but everyone at the hotel treated me as though I was one !! I was extremely pleased to see Fasano still stocks Costa Brazil soap and shampoo toiletries--love this brand, which unfortunately is no longer sold in the United States. Breakfast was fabulous as always. Best tasting pancakes I have ever had along with exotic fruits, fresh juices, smoked salmon, eggs, Italian meats, fantastic baked goods, and Prosecco. I took advantage of the Spa services on this visit and got a wonderful facial. Fantastic supplies used during the treatment and cost nearly 1/2 of what it would in the US. The rooftop pool deck and restaurant/bar speaks for itself. Fantastic views and photo ops of Ipanema and Leblon beaches, a great infinity pool, comfortable lounge chairs and attentive staff. Couple of suggestions/comments--please reopen Londres Bar. It would be great to have live music at the hotel as they offer in SP. Please consider offering and selling Fasano branded Tshirts, ball caps, and polo shirts....finally, and regrettably, Fasano no longer participates in The Leading Hotels of the World group. Love everything about this hotel and will definitely return,

Right from the moment I stepped into the hotel, the warmth and professionalism of the staff were evident, setting a positive tone for the entire stay. Despite arriving earlier than our check-in time, the staff seamlessly arranged for an early room, showcasing their commitment to guest satisfaction. The efforts of the entire hotel team made my birthday weekend truly unforgettable. Our room provided the perfect panoramic view of Ipanema Beach and Dois Irmãos, creating an ideal backdrop for people-watching and immersing myself in the celebratory atmosphere. The proximity to the carnival block parties added an extra layer of festivity and joy, making me feel fully immersed in the vibrant celebrations of Rio de Janeiro. The pool and rooftop area, with its impeccable views, coupled with incredible food and modern organic decor, was a highlight of our stay. The silver mirrors added a touch of modern fun, enhancing this overall aesthetically pleasing hotel. Fasano in Ipanema Beach proved to be the perfect setting for a celebratory weekend, combining exceptional service, stunning views, and a lively atmosphere. A heartfelt thank you to the Fasano team for making my birthday celebration truly special. One star off for the absurd wait times and extremely small elevators. Making it almost always an uncomfortable ride up. Additionally, I suggest adding a merchandise/gift shop for those who would like to take home hats & shirts with the Fasano Ipanema Beach name. Otherwise excellent stay - I will be back!
