Mendes Vacations from $848

I liked the accommodation is staffed throughout day and night, and that you can leave your key there if you want to so you don’t need to worry about losing it when going out partying or to the beach. Staff was kind and the area is pretty convenient between beaches in Ipanema & Copabana. They changed towels everyday which I wasn’t expecting and thought was nice.

There was no functioning air conditioning Barely any hot water And I ask for a toaster/grill on the first day and never got any! Main bed mattress is worn out complete The couch was also totally run down Location was great! Thank god it was a cheap deal!! I really don’t recommend unless you’re on a budget and ok with camping conditions in an apartment 5/10

Staff was fantastic, great suggestions for what to do. Was a little disappointed with my room. I thought I’d paid for a balcony but got a patio instead so not much of a view. Beautiful property, food is excellent, I would definitely stay here again. It’s a great alternative to the beach. Lots of character and charm.

This hotel sits right at Copacabana beach at a rather older building that has been renovated. The rooms are rather spacious. The shower is amazing! Their breakfast buffet is really good - do not miss it!
