I am one of those people who relys a lot on reviews and I booked the Promenade after reading all the wonderful reviews about this hotel. I will tell you that I was not dissappointed at all. This was an amazing hotel - great service, perfect location, yummy and huge breakfast and extremely helpful staff. I spent 3 days here... more

We stayed in the Promenade Visconti in March for 4 nights and found it a great place to stay. We had a room, rather than an apartment, and it was spacious, clean and comfortable. The best thing was the location, right in the middle of Ipanema, one block from the beach and one block from the shops/restaurants. The staff were... more

Basic, solid hotel, price probably ok for location and timing, clean, pleasant service and pretty quiet. Best part probably location in central Ipanema, safe, one block from nice spot on beach near Posto 9 where the posh people hang out, able to walk to bars/restos/Leblon. more

Before coming to Rio, we were told that Ipanema/Leblon were the best areas to stay. Unfortunately, the selection of hotels in these areas was dismaying -- a couple super high-end options (one of which is undergoing renovations) and otherwise a series of very average looking hotels (nicer boutique options in Santa Teresa). We settled on Promenade Visconti because of its... more

The hotel has a super location, and the best option to stay in ipanema. very good rooms, with large and confortable beds (book a twin and ask to assemble; larger that a double). Very good shower. I had the experience of staying in both kinds of rooms. Of course the apartment with the small kitchen is better, but the suite... more

The hotel bedrooms are great with lovely views from the balconi. Great power shower and a lovely breakfast. Usualy when I go to Rio I stay in Barra da Tijuca but if you are looking to... more

Preferring small intimate hotels, preferably with a decent sitting area and some kind of food preparation area, this hotel fitted the bill perfectly. Do ask for a 'suite', not an 'apart', as they call them the opposite to us: an 'apart' is a single room with bathroom and no sitting/kitchen area. Hotel reception staff very friendly & helpful. Small dining... more

I stayed at this hotel for a couple of days while in Ipanema, Rio. The room was nice, the "apartment" had a microwave and a minibar. The free breakfast buffet was pretty good. The hotel is only one block from the beach and one block from a commercial street. The hotel is close to many restaurants and bars. The staff... more
