Ipanema Plaza

Frommer's Review

A member of the Holland-based Golden Tulip hotel chain, the Ipanema Plaza is located just 1 block from Ipanema beach. The hotel's modern and sleek design looks fabulous and the attention to detail carries over into the rooms. Furnished in beige tones and cherrywood, the rooms are quite spacious, particularly the deluxe rooms. A number of them come with a large balcony, and all double beds are king-size; twin beds are much larger than the average Brazilian single bed. If you're splurging, the master suites are gorgeous and have a separate sitting room adjacent to the bedroom. A delicious buffet breakfast is included in the rate. The hotel is close to Rio's upscale gay neighborhood, and has a reputation for being very gay-friendly.
