Ok it is expensive, But one of the best hotels I have stayed in for a while. Excellent staff and very well crafted service. Pool on roof is uber cool, beds incredibly comfortable. Food excellent, and breakfast just right. Great location on Ipanema beach as well. Visited the Copacabana Palace and it is a Museum in comparision. Highly recommend this... more

We are currently staying at the Hotel Fasano and are loving it. The hotel has a relaxed elegance, the service and staff so helpful and friendly. The restaurant in the hotel is excellent and wait staff so professional. It's been raining the whole time we are here so haven't been able to enjoy the rooftop but you can tell the... more

Brand new, Modern, and the best restaurant EVER!! Ipanema Beach is better than Copacabana Beach. Just beautiful people everywhere, all day. Much better than any hotel in Copacabana Beach. more

My husband & I stayed here for 4 nights in May, in a Deluxe Suite. We had low expectations, thinking we would find a hip hotel with small rooms & nonchalant service.

The high-end personalized service is impecable, as has been... more

This is a beautiful hotel.. there's no way you can pretend its not. I love the F in SP and this is better. It is though outrageously overpriced. The location is amazing. Pretty much on Posto 8 on the border of Arpador and Ipanema-. I come to Rio a lot not on a budget and know the hotels here and... more

The Hotel Fasano was everything you hear: cool, hip, sleek, great rooftop pool and bar, but what you don’t hear is that the entry level, "deluxe" king room is small for two people with little or no counter space in the bath, no task lighting – the room has two tiny lights in the ceiling and one dim floor lamp... more

My father always used to say that he was more inclined to pay for something that was expensive, but good, than something that was good, but expensive. After two stays at the Fasano I am obliged to conclude that this hotel falls into the second of these categories. So why is it so busy? Simply because, for most of its... more
