The city of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil is the home to some of the most interesting bars in the entire world. The number of the bars is quite impressive, just like the variety. With this article we will try to review some of the most popular bars in Rio, visited by hundreds of people of different nationalities and cultures who come together to have fun and relax.

Baronetti- is a somewhat pricey restaurant/lounge/club in Ipanema with a plush, modern and white interior that accentuates the coffee-brown skin of the designer-clad girls from Ipanema. Here you can eat sushi or enjoy a fine cocktail with a couple of friends. The actual club is in a larger downstairs space, with home-grown DJ's specializing in original American house that is ideal for dancing and shaking all the stress off. There are many of nearby spots to visit should the sight of shapely model types bore you, not very likely is it?

Melt - is a restaurant slash bar, popular among the high society of Brazil. The design of the spot is inspired by New York's lounge bars as it is dark and relaxed, where people come here to unwind on the comfortable sofas and ...
... cushions. The atmosphere of the bar heats up later on in the evening with sounds from samba to techno and trip-hop music and you will want to get close to some of the beautiful and exquisite women that come here every night, unless you prefer the other side which is no problem as a matter of fact.

Bar d'Hotel - is described as a sexy hangout for beautiful people that enjoy the breathtaking view of the ocean. But who comes at a bar to enjoy the ocean? You come here for the top-notch Italian food, beautiful women and tasty cocktails. Popular at the bar are the champagne cocktail with a lemon sorbet mixer and the Sake Caipirinha.

One of the most interesting places in Rio (if not the most exciting) in terms of bars is the Balcony Bar which many consider to be the best bar in all Brazil. This is the only bar in Rio de Janeiro that can offer 45 different varieties of beer: national and foreign, all at affordable prices. This is not an exclusivist bar, everybody is welcomed in here to have fun and shake the stress of on some samba music. The variety of food is limited but all the basics are covered plus who comes at a bar to eat?

The place gets crowded on Friday but every day of the week the place is busy, busy with people relaxing over a cold beer. The outside of the bar is more for eating and even in the winter you can choose to have dinner outside because the temperature is just perfect for a relaxing meal. The outside can accommodate 50-60 people with no trouble whatsoever - not crowded but not empty - just perfect for the evening. Inside is the place to be if you enjoy drinking an ice cold beer, why not a foreign one?

All things considered, whether you like the Baronetti, the Melt, the Bar d'Hotel or the exciting Balcony Bar, Rio is the place where you get all: Carnival, exquisite beaches, some of the most beautiful women in the world, best bars and restaurants and a unique nightlife.
