Offering good value, the Ibis Styles Botafogo is well located for both business and leisure travellers coming to Rio as it is located right next to the Botafogo metro which gives easy access to Copacabana, Ipanema, Leblon, and even Barra, and in the other direction the city centre, docks, Maracana, Stadium etc.
The metro square has a good selection of bars and restaurants and close by is Botafogo Praia Shopping, one of Rio's better shopping centres.
After a long summer season the property could do with a deep clean to spruce it up, but overall it ticks most of the boxes travellers on a budget want and demand.
