Even though this hotel is near the best sites of NYC (2 blocks from Times Square and 1 block from the best of the 5th Ave), the local is calm and silent. The people who work there are very friendly, and the rooms are clean and usefull. I will go there again, certainly.

I stayed there for 5 days in June 2011! The place is managed by brazilians, it's located at Little Brazil Street and at the same building of Ipanema Restaurant (a very good choice for those who are missing brazilian food). The room is good, clean and there is a little kitchen inside the room but the TV didn't work well... More

I've stayed there in November with my husband and we were very satisfied, the rooms were very good, they have a brazilian channel and the localization is near of the subway.

A budget hotel, in a great location, in the middle of everything, sorrounded by a many choices of foods, italian, colombian, turkish and brazilian restaurants in the same block..., Joao and Jorge were very very friendly with and the rooms are big and with bathroons inside. The rooms are cleaned everyday by Joao. He is a great guy, made us... More

It was good to stay at Ipanema Chalet. It is very simple but with a great localization and very clean. The manager, Jorge, ins't extremelly kind but he wasn't rude with me ( I agree that Jorge isn't so bad like the other guy said ). He helped me for 3 times. João is the person who cleans the rooms...

The Ipanem Chalet is simple but comfortable hotel. The location is perfect (between Fifth and Sixth Avenue on the street 49th) In front of the hotel there is a 0.99 cents´s store where you can buy meals to eat in the room (there is a kitchen in the room). Very nice Place to stay.

In fact Ipanema Chalet isn't a charming, quiet or elegant place. BUT if you want a place near everything that matters in Manhattan plus low price and a kitchen in room were you can cook quick meals (saving your dollars) it's a place to think about. Mr. Jorge isn't so bad like the other guy said in his review and... More

It was my second time at this place - the first one was bad already - very old rooms, noisy, unpleasent management, but it was at least clean in 2007 - this time we found urine on the bathroom, dust everywhere, managemente even more rude than first time, more noise, terrible and small bed. The last day they didn't bother... More
