When we pulled back the curtains and saw the view along Copacabana beach, we just went wow. Everything was superb, accommodation, food, service and, of course, the view and proximity to the beach. We weren't affected but our friends were by the noise of the lifts.

A good hotel which shares the same virtues of the Windsor chain. Good size rooms, clean and well-kept. Excellent breakfasts and good bars. Shame there are no coffee-making facilities in your room and do you really have to pay for wifi in this day and when you are in a hotel of this prices and specification? Obviously well-placed for Copacabana... More

We stayed 4 nights at the Windsor Atlantica as my husband attended a business conference. While the hotel was in a great location, had lovely public spaces and a terrific breakfast, our room and bathroom were a little small for a 5 star hotel, and our view from one of the side rooms on the 18th floor was considerably inferior...

The hotel's great plus is the location, everything is in walking distance: Restaurants, beach, bars, supermarket, shopping mall, farmacy ...even the sugarloaf can be reached by a trail. The sights from your window are breathtaking! Staff is very friendly except the guys at the beach, but they have to deal with a great deal of hassle as sunbeds, towels and... More

Just recently came back from tour of Brazil & Argentina with around 30 of us. Our first stop was Rio and loved our room with a fantastic view of Copacabana beach. we could easily cross the street and enjoy an early morning run on the beach. Breakfast was great with a wide selection. My only comment was there was no... More

The views and service at the Windsor Atlantica are the best in Rio. There are no bad views from this hotel, every room has a great view. The service was wonderful. Everyone was very helpful and you can easily understand why their concierge desk is rated the best in Rio. I use to live in Rio and Brasilians are not... More

Four of us traveled here in February on business, early check in had been arranged and after some refreshments were were enjoying the beach, which is simply across the main road. The hotel itself is not the most modern, but what do you want when you've got snow at home and here is the sun and the beach. Good restaurants... More

This hotel is directly on the beach and the beach is clean and safe. There is also a walking path along the beach that is about 3.5 miles from end to end. There are plenty of inexpensive places to eat and shop in the immediate area. The rooms are spacious and clean. The bathrooms are very nice. I had a... More

I spent a few days on business in this recently renovated hotel. The hotel was renovated about two years ago and was reopened. The hotel is located on the water front in Copacabana. The location is not great and the concierge recommended that aside from going to the beach during the day every trip is in a car or reliable... More
