“Vieux hotel, mais bon emplacement”

Des meubles anciennes, mais terrasse au dernier étage avec vue sur Copacabana qui nous a permis de suivre les préparations pour les feux d'artifices pour le Nouvel An.

“"Excellent Location and Service!"”

We were very pleased with our choice of Windsor Palace. We had a small room with nice view of beach from 16th floor with small balcony. Excellent breakfast buffet that was included each morning. Short one block walk to the beach and/or shopping in the other direction. Nice roof top pool and small workout room with great view of beach. Hotel was quiet and located across the street from a small park that has a farmers market on Sunday mornings. Good restaurants a near by. Overall excellent location in the middle of Copacabana Beach. Easy to catch city bus or taxi. Used Shuttle Rio for transportation to and from airport. Free wifi in rooms. Staff very helpful in planning tours. Safe neighborhood. Would recommend to others. Great value.

“Average experience”

It was an average experience with some highlights. The breakfast buffet have a very good quality and a very good presentation. The hotel personnel were very friendly and helpful. Considering Copacabana is on a very good location and somehow isolated from the noise.

“Good overnight transit. Key Location.”

Short nice drive to Santos Dumont Airport. For an AM flight great sunset drive. And a block from beach.

“would definitely stay there again”

great hotel with great staff and would definitely stay there again, the location was great, very close to copacabana beach and close to supermarkets and shops.

“Loved it!”

First visit to Rio. Hotel is about 30 minutes from the airport by taxi (fixed fare notified in advance) and is located a few hundred yards from Copacabana beach surrounded by local cafe bars and listed restaurants within a few minutes walk. Reception staff multilingual and ALL staff extremely helpful. Our early morning arrival had our room immediately ready. A balcony room on the 14th floor, accessible by very efficient lifts with view of the beach (just) and morning sun. Room of excellent proportion with larger than king size bed, colour TV with satellite channels (BBC world & US news channels, some English films with Portuguese subtitles) and clock radio. En-suite with bidet and wet-floor walk-in shower. Rooms serviced to a very high standard daily. Free in room Wi-fi and fridge a bonus. Breakfast with choice of Continental and hot options available until mid-morning included in our package. Roof terrace with small pool and bar an oasis with sun until late afternoon. Only small issue of noisy air-conditioning but effective and probably not that much different than experienced elsewhere. Would we go again - most definite yes. Should you go - most definitely.

“Underated - This hotel is excellent”

I read some so-so reviews before going here for a holiday. It has clean rooms - not large, but fine. The staff are all really friendly and the breakfast is great. It is one block back from Copacobana - handy for beach. Importantly you are on Rua Sequeira Campos so walk away form the beach by two block and you are able to get on Rio's excellent metro line. This hotel is handy for all of Rio. We used the roof pool at the sister hotel, the Windsor Exelcior (3 blocks north up Copacobana), as it is bigger and better than the one here - just walk in and say you are using that because the sauna etc isn't working at the Windsor `palace if asked (you wont be if you walk straight in to the lift). Front desk at the Windsor Palace will give you beech towels. Recommend d two "kilo" restaurants - just weigh and pay. a) The Sequeira Grill , just at the end of street when Domingos Ferrara meets Rua Sequeira Campos. Dont go to teh Pizza place (they are sh its!). b) jhe Bella Blu up twowrds the metro station (up rua sequeira campos). Lots of bars near by. Football= live ESPN Premiership - on at the "Informal" bar go out left up rua sequiera campos to next street, turn right after park, and keep going (its on the left) about 2.5 blocks) We will come again!
