Nilo Peçanha Holidays from AU$772

Fantastic and kind staff. The breakfast buffet was great and beyond your standard continental breakfast. Great shower water pressure! Cons: Area around the hotel is very walkable, but doesn't feel the cleanest. People don't clean up after their dogs so there was a lot of poo on the sidewalks in the whole neighborhood. The hotel is currently rennovating rooms so there was a lot of noisy construction. Our friends stayed in one of the renovated rooms which was quite cute. Our room was plain and basic even though we paid extra for a balcony (not really worth it honestly). I'm sure when renovations are complete, the rooms will feel more modern.

I and my girlfriend had an wonderful stay at Ipanema Inn. The staff is absolutely courteous, the included breakfast is amazing and the location is perfect. I was expecting kind of a normalish inn based on the pictures, but the room was very nice and was kept clean daily. Many bonus points to the in-room hammock! We had a great leisure time.

its and old Hotel, but its very close to everything, great location.

The buffet has little variety: the dishes do not change throughout the days, which can become repetitive if you plan to stay for several nights. Regarding cleanliness, we found mold in the bathroom, which shows a lack of proper maintenance. I believe this is not about the staff’s attitude, but more about the management not providing the right tools to deliver better service. On the positive side, the staff was very kind. Both in the breakfast area and in housekeeping, they were always attentive and friendly, which made the stay more pleasant.
