Of course, we couldn't go to Brazil and not visit one of the most famous and beautiful city in the world: Rio de Janeiro.
With its endless beaches and looming lush mountains, Rio offers all the amenities of a large metropolis, all in a dreamy setting. The 5-star Sofitel Ipanema and its prime location right on the ocean front is our favorite pick when it comes to mixing business and pleasure. All rooms boast gorgeous views of the turquoise water, and the rooftop restaurant (which can be privatized for your guests) is the perfect spot to watch the sunset and drink a cocktail. With 4 events and meeting rooms, we will be able to organize any type of event or work meeting according to your needs. The hotel enjoys its own private area on the beach, with a bar service and loungers. Don't miss the opportunity to stay in one of the most luxurious hotel in the Rio Zona Sul and get in touch with our team to organize your next trip ! Photo Credit : Amandine Allaire-Bonamy

Stay in one of the 23 rooms, all boasting gorgeous view of the pool and surrounding green mountains.
