Billing itself as the only hotel from Leme to Leblon located right on the beach (at least the only one without a road interrupting the view), here you step more or less right out of the lobby onto the golden sands of Arpoador. Rooms are of a good standard whether with sea view or the somewhat cheaper street-facing option with everything you would expect of a modern hotel, but the highlights are the breakfast room location looking straight to the ocean and the proximity of Arpoador rock, the best sunset vantage point and surfer's paradise.
