Just one block from the beach and fitness action at Ipanema, one of the most comfortable boutique hotels in town is the stylish Portinari Design Hotel. Ten of Brazil's leading architects designed each of the hotel's 12 floors; the rooms are large and unique. While most rooms are on the minimalist side, they come with plenty of amenities. Plus, the attentive and friendly service at the Portinari is above and beyond what you'll find at most of so-called "hip" hotels. An economical and high-quality choice.
