Hotel Fasano Rio de Janeiro Review
An 89-room hotel on Avenida Vieira Souto in Ipanema, facing the beach.
Best for
A first trip built around the beachCouplesTravellers who want the front row rather than a short walk to it
Why it stands out
The address. Ipanema is measured from this avenue, and the difference between facing it and being two streets back is the whole of what you are paying for.
Main trade-off
This is the most expensive ground in the city and the area scores 5.0 for value. Vieira Souto also carries traffic; the quiet is on the streets behind.
Why we recommend it
Best on the beachfront
Our pick for Ipanema because it stands on Vieira Souto, the beachfront avenue itself, which is the address this whole area is arranged around — the sand on one side and the restaurants a block behind.
