>> Hotel Arpoador

"My boyfriend and I often go for staycations. We almost always choose Hotel Arpoador. It has a really cool triangular rooftop pool and is one of the only properties in Rio that isn't separated from the beach by the road, so it almost feels as if you're waking up on the sand. It's calmingly minimal, and I adore the slightly crunchy pancakes with maple syrup at breakfast."
