Hotel Fasano Rio de Janeiro

Located on Avenida Vieira Souto, in the heart of Ipanema Beach, the long-awaited Hotel Fasano Rio de Janeiro combines the sophistication of Rio’s most coveted address with the modernity and efficiency in design and service. The hotel is the first project designed entirely from scratch by Philippe Stark from the 50’s and 60’s-style furniture to the vintage uniforms designed exclusively for the hotel by Ocimar Versolato. Everything has been thought out to reverberate the glorious "bossa nova" era, when Ipanema was blossoming into the most charming neighborhood of Rio. The place offers the latest technology in its accommodations and meeting rooms. Guests can experience Fasano’s gastronomic legacy at the elegant Fasano al Mare Restaurant and the drinks of Londra Bar. The breathtaking view from the rooftop swimming pool overlooks the beach, the Dois Irmãos (Two Brothers) Mountain, Arpoador rocks and even the Corcovado Mountain.

O hotel é o primeiro projeto inteiramente concebido desde o esboço por Philippe Stark, dos móveis estilo anos 50 e 60, até os uniformes, desenhados exclusivamente para o hotel, por Ocimar Versolato. Tudo foi pensado para refletir a gloriosa era da bossa nova, quando Ipanema florescia como o mais charmoso bairro do Rio. O lugar oferece as mais novas tecnologias nas suas acomodações e nas salas de reunião. Os hóspedes podem experimentar a legendária gastronomia do Fasano, no elegante Restaurante Fasano AL Mare e os drinques do Londra bar. A maravilhosa vista do terraço, onde fica a piscina de borda infinita, vislumbra a praia, os Morros Dois Irmãos, o Arpoador e até mesmo o Corcovado!

Hi Robert! Nice to have you here!
Yes, the place is really very cool! Inside the hotel, comfort and beauty, with many furniture and other stuff designed by Philippe Stark; outside, the breathtaking landscape created by God! All of this is waiting for you!

Hi Magicdarts! I loved your comment! Yes, the hotel is so "girl from Ipanema"! Not only because it is located in the heart of Ipanema, but mainly because of the "bossa nova" era that the place tries to revive in its style and atmosphere.

I don't know if you know Paul that "bossa nova" was much more than a kind of music, but also a way of thinking and living in the 60's. By the way, have you ever listened to the girl from Ipanema song? if so, did you like it?
