Hotel Praia Ipanema Review

Straddling the border between Ipanema and Leblon, the Praia Ipanema offers beachfront luxury accommodations, all within walking distance of Lagoa, the upscale shopping and restaurants of the Zona Sul, and the restaurants and bars of Leblon. All 105 units offer king-size beds and lovely bedding, plus balconies and ocean views. In the lowest category, Superior Master rooms offer either a front ocean view on a lower floor, or a side-view from an upper floor. (As the side-view rooms are actually a bit larger than the front-views, an upper-floor side view may well be the best deal.) One step up, the Deluxe (luxo) rooms offer a front view from a higher floor. Deluxe Master (luxo master) rooms offer the same front view from floors 10 and up -- where views of sand and sea get ever more spectacular -- plus extras like a DVD and flatscreen TV. Suites are large, and come with a front-view balcony and a separate comfortable sitting room.

Facilities:
Restaurant; 2 bars; small gym; rooftop pool; room service

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
