ibis Rio de Janeiro Botafogo

Good hotel for small business weeks in Rio de Janeiro, good location in central Botafogo, Good Sleep, Clean Rooms, and nice breakfast. Easy to find taxi and good restaurants and entertainment around this area.

The vast majority of hotels in Rio are on Copacabana or Ipanema / Leblon i.e. near the beaches. I wanted to see the city for five days rather than the sand, so based myself here. I was very pleased with my choice. The hotel is in a safe and well-lit area only 50m from Botafogo metro station exit E. The reception staff speak good English and were helpful with questions. There is plenty of choice for bars and food in the local area. I had a standard room and it's ... an Ibis, so clean but basic. The wi-fi was reliably strong and the breakfast was plentiful, although in typical Brazilian fashion there was a lot of sugar involved. My room on the top floor had a view of Cristo Redentore, which was a nice bonus!

Fabulous stay in a great hotel. The staff & restaurant Manager were so lovely, friendly, super professional & helpful. I would definitely recommend staying here for everyone. Close to bars & central Metro, markets & restaurants. Five Star service for a very competitive price. Thank you, the Rio Trio xxx Tchau xxx

Everything's standard about this hotel. But that's exactly what I was looking for. And affordable price. So I have nothing to complain about. All the staff that I talked to was really polite and helpful. Well done.

I’ve stayed 4 nights at the Ibis in Botafogo. It’s in a useful location, and reception staff’s capacity to speak English was adequate. The room was undecorated, basic and small, but has the necessary comforts with everything in good working order. Great air-conditioner, which is needed in this climate. Breakfast was good and exceeded my expectations. Ask for a room on the higher floors for better views. There are good views of the famous Christ the Redeemer statue.
