Compare Hotels with an Indoor Pool in Ipanema

"Excellent breakfast, attentive staff."

"I am a frequent, older, solo traveler. This was country #55 for me, so I have had a lot of experience with foreign accommodations. I found the Vermont to be basic, but spotless, well-maintained, and having most of the virtues I look for when traveling. I am a heavy WiFi user for work. WiFi was fast, if not super speedy, and varied in speed while on it. But I was able to accomplish my work with two VPN's to the U.S. My solo room was lacking a dresser, but had a large closet with a couple of small, simple drawers. Removable hangers. There is a good sized safe. An ample workspace. A mini Fridge was ample enough to store my own food and drink (big supermarket on the corner of the block) The AC worked well, though blew a bit of a draft onto the bed. Bathroom was modern and useful, if small. Powerful hair dryer (for drying my wet clothes, not bald head!) Outstanding daily maid service from Maria. Exceptional breakfast, with a wide range of foods, including local fruits, as well as traditional eggs/bacon/potato/granola/yogurt fare. The location is in the heart of Ipanema. Blocks from the center of the gorgeous, sugar-sanded, famous beach. Restaurants and shops abound. I never felt unsafe. Desk staff friendly and efficient, with a doorman or two always on the lookout for guests arriving and departing. Most spoke functional English. There is a small, but useful gym with a full range of dumbbells, a solid weight bench, elliptical, stationary bike. No pool, but...the beach! "

"This was one of my favorite places I have ever stayed in all of my travel experiences worldwide. Aside from the great food, incredible hospitality, comfy bed, and convenient location, the staff was warm and insightful, providing excellent guidance into safe and wonderful experiences around the city. Highly, highly recommend!"
