Right on posto 9, the Best Western's well-positioned Sol Ipanema branch location is its main attraction. The rooms are clean, well equipped and unremarkable affairs, but if you have the beach view and the sun is out then the lack of luxury indoors is probably going to be the least of your considerations. Similarly the rooftop pool may be on the small side, but when you have the whole of Ipanema beach at your disposal, who cares?
