We've chosen the hotel for its location and we were not disappointed at all since the prices were among the most competitive in Ipanema for the comfort offered. Our room (ask for the higher floors possible!) was pretty small but clean with air con but no possibility to regulate temperature so we woke up every night freezing... The furniture were... More

during the reservation process the hotel required credit card information including a photocopy of front and back of my card - i never heard of this but sent them the information required. 1 week later i was called by my credit card company fraud alert for an attempted spending spree in rio. i explained i was still in the united...

We stayed at this small hotel for a couple of nights after taking a cruise from Venice, and found it just great. Our room was ready for us even though we arrived before 11am, and the Bell Boy took our cases up to the 8th floor, and checked that everything worked before leaving us. The Hotels location is superb, right... More

The Ipanema location is the main reason to stay at Vermont Hotel. The beach is a safe 5 min walk away. Enjoy the view of the ocean there and start relaxing. Vermont is a (very) basic hotel with clean rooms (you can open the window) and tired bathrooms. The staff speaks English and most are kind. The breakfast-staff offered service... More

I was recommended this hotel in tripadvisor forums and I am glad I asked for a recommendation. This is a budget hotel and at $160 US a night in Ipanema I found this to be of fair value. The location is what makes it worth while, you are 2 blocks from everything e.g. subway, beach, shopping, restaurants. The location could... More

I stayed here during a business trip, for two nights. The hotel is pretty clean, which is essential for me. My room had a good size, with twin beds. The bathroom is a bit old, but works perfectly and is clean. In the first night, I had a bad night of sleep. Early in the morning (6 am) I could... More

No-frills, with a very good location in Ipanema. I've stayed a few times in the Vermont and have always found it clean and ready to meet basic expectations. Some of the rooms may be a bit small for couples, and some bathrooms are getting tired and in need of renovation. All rooms have a safe and a small fridge. Breakfast... More

Where the hotel is is great...its safe, shops are outside the door, the beach is two blocks away. The rooms are functional..but very basic..only plan on sleeping and then dont expect comfort. The breakfast is good and plentiful. The reception staff must be the most rudest and unhelpful bunch that i have every dealt with...the only reason i continued to... More

A good location in a safe neighbourhood (Ipanema), two blocks from the beach and one block from the famous Garota de Ipanema bar. Also surrounded by nice places to shop and eat or grab a drink. Facilities are not in perfect condition, breakfast is included and is fine, wifi is charged additional to the room price and there is a... More
