Gavea Tropical Boutique Hotel  

Perched in the hills of Gávea in Rio de Janeiro, minutes from Vidigal, Leblon and Ipanema beaches and a short drive to Dois Irmãos Hill and Corcovado.

This intimate Art Deco boutique hotel offers just six air‑conditioned suites with kitchenettes, private balconies and terraces that frame views of Christ the Redeemer, Sugarloaf and Rodrigo de Freitas Lake.
