a very bad value
probably the worst hotel, in terms of value/price ratio, of any hotel I’ve ever stayed in in many years of traveling to Rio. Dirty pool, a bar with no employees, small rooms at a very high price. Worst, after being caught in a downpour the hotel refused to lend us an iron or hairdryer to dry our clothes. It was the hotel laundry or nothing. Vastly more expensive than this chain’s hotels in Europe. A genuinely poor hotel.
Comment from the hotel's management
Posted: 11-Sep-09The hotel Ipanema Plaza would like to thanks the guest for the comments, as it will help us to evaluate our efforts to improve our services. We were surprised with this facts because the big majority of our guests always loves the hotel. About your concerns, the service in the pool has already got an extension of time to better serve our guests. We donīt lend irons for the own safety of our guests. We comprehend that the Ipanema Plazaīs cheapest room, are smaller than the american standard rooms, our standard room has 26m2, but itīs a good size comparing with the majority hotels in Rio. We are sorry for this inconveniences and to change this impression about us, we look forward to having you here with us again in the near future!

Okay hotel...
My room, city view, was small and compact but has all the amenities you would need except a iron. It is less than a block walk to the beach.
