The Fasano name is hands down the top end of chic / chichi hospitality/restaurant brands in Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. And their relatively recently established hotel in Ipanema does not disappoint. The familiar wood paneling and natural borwn color tones from their other properties are in evidence in spades. 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

I stayed at the Fasano in October and had a great time. The front desk/ concierge were very helpful. They had some great recommendations for restaurants and tours. My room, on a lower floor, was small but had a nice view from the balcony. I could hear the street traffic, so if you are sensitive to noise you should probably... more

Started a two week Brazil holiday with three nights at the Fasano. After a tedious flight the Fasano provided the perfect start an was an ideal base from which to explore Rio. We had asked for a front (beach facing) room. It had a balcony overlooking the Ipenema Beach. The roof terrace and pool are great. The styling by Phillipe... more

We stayed two nights at Fasano Rio. Wonderful hotel, friendly and polite staff, beautiful rooms, gorgeous roof with pool... The restaurant is one of a kind, best seafood restaurant in Rio for sure. When booking prefer the beach view room. It has an extra cost, but the others have a terrible view (close to another building, you can actually see... more

Fasano Review A boutique hotel in every sense… I thoroughly enjoyed the hotel, location and most of all, the people…. Rooms I had a city view room although the views of Ipanema beach would have been nice and are available from the hotel at an extra cost. A Philippe Starck hotel, so sometimes form over function prevailed, but I loved... more
