Miramar Hotel by Windsor, Rio de Janeiro

Av. Atlântica, 3668 - Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro - RJ, 22070-001, Brazil (show on map)

Expert reviews

New York Times review:

“Winner of a TripAdvisor Travelers’ Choice Award for 2015, the Miramar has a prime Copacabana beachfront location, walking distance from Ipanema Beach and the subway to get downtown. Though the less expensive rooms don’t face the beach, anyone can take in a panoramic view of Copacabana, including a glimpse of Sugarloaf Mountain, from the rooftop pool and bar.”

Featured in New York Times’ 36 Hours in Rio de Janeiro.

Telegraph review:

“Copacabana may not have the glamour of yore, but once you’ve walked inside the discreet entrance of this hotel and been met with a glass of champagne, you will discover there is still plenty of glitz to be found here. Expect panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean and first-class service.”

Lovely stay but not 5 star!

Great location, wonderful staff and clean hotel. The sea view rooms have a great view as does the rooftop pool area. Service within the hotel is relatively fast.

Housekeeping was hit or miss - they’d forget something literally daily, coffee in the room is for a fee (we’ve been to hundreds of 4-5 star hotels around the world and have NEVER seen this), and A/C unit is extremely loud. Overall, this is a nice hotel but it’s no where near 5 star when compared to other 5 star hotels in Brazil and globally. If you’re expecting the impeccable experience you’d get with a 5 star hotel, you’ll likely be a little disappointed. It’s a solid 4 though!

Large comfortable room. Well-appointed and, quiet. Front desk staff very helpful. Could even do money change. Breakfast outstanding. Nice rooftop bar. Opposite beach and short walk to Roxy theatre

Toilet paper in bins although this is common throughout South America. Can't drink the water but a large bottle provided free daily.

Lovely stay

Amazing staff, so attentive and proactive in ensuring you have a wonderful stay! Rooms are comfortable. Good choice at breakfast and pool is large enough to swim as well as heated! Beautiful views of Copacobana beach. Excellent location, just by Post 5 so on the Copacobana boardwalk but also walkable to Impanema beach. Recommend!

Room 1511 was on penultimate top floor under the pool and bar but we experienced noise during the day and night from what sounded like system units.

Perfect getaway in Copacabana 🥰

Exceptional hotel: from the room, amenities, to location, the amazing, helpful staff always ready to greet you and support you! The breakfast buffet was very good, lots of fruits, tasty food, variety of products, fresh. They even granted me free late check out and have storage for your bags if you need. Also, book a massage (its in the hotel envelope with other suggestions) - the service is in the room and its very professional! Worth for the money.

Amazing location, friendly Staff, perfect holiday stay

The customer service have been amazing - the concierge, the bell boy, the operator, the room services everyone was extremely friendly and went above and beyond. I needed to buy a lock and the bell boy walked with me to the store to explain in local language. The location is amazing - just walk to the beach and many restaurants and souvenirs shops. The beach is clean and well maintained.

May be the chef at the egg counter (breakfast) could be a little friendlier like all his colleagues :-)

Friendly staff, nice rooftop pool with a view and several lounges, you receive pool and beach towels which is very handy!

There are little things that could be improved and were a little outdated for a hotel at this level e.g. weak old hair dryers.

The hotel gave me a free upgrade for all three nights

Nothing drastic for me because I know this can happen, but not ideal. Money was taken from my credit card already at the time of the booking The reception, unaware, made a payment again so I had the amount withdrawn twice. I got the money back immediately when I noticed.

Great stay at the Copacabana beach

The location is really nice along Copacabana and the hotel has its own area on the beach where they put out sunchairs. The staff at the hotel were really kind and helpful. The hotel restaurant was nice and they had a rooftop pool and bar with a great view over the beach.

It might have been my expectations were too high given that it was a 5 star hotel, but I expected the rooms to be slightly larger and housekeeping did not replace used towels in our room.

Wonderful hotel in a awesome location with a great rooftop view of copacabana

Loved our stay, room was clean and cold and in a great location. Staff was extremely friendly and helpful. They gave us recommendations on places to go.

Only thing I would say is the beds do need to be updated. We stayed in a 3 twin room which was highly appreciated as we were a group of 3 single girls but the mattresses were a bit old and a bit uncomfortable.

A Copacabana MUST

We travel a great deal for work and pleasure so have a pretty good perspective, world wide, of hotel quality and value. Miramar Windsor Copacabana was excellent on all levels including location and 5 Star breakfast. Don't miss the roof top bar - the view is superior. Hospitality royalty! Thank you ever so much

My only tiny negative comment is charging, p/ "coffee pod used," for using the Nespresso coffee maker in the room. It is indeed a minor charge but have NEVER been to a hotel anywhere in the world charging for this. It is not the money but it does not seem befitting a property of this quality.

An hotel experience that is truly amazing

The hotel's location is truly extraordinary, providing easy access to various attractions, many of which are within walking distance. The ocean-view room offers a breathtaking perspective, allowing guests to fully immerse themselves in the beauty of the ocean and Copacabana Beach right at their fingertips. Positioned along the curve of the beach, the hotel serves as the perfect vantage point to witness the spectacular sunrise, creating an unforgettable start to your day. The breakfast experience is delightful, complemented by an amazing rooftop pool and bar that enhance the overall ambiance. What truly sets this hotel apart is its exceptional staff, who exemplify professionalism, politeness, and friendliness—qualities that are increasingly rare in the hospitality industry. A heartfelt thank you to Hotel Miramar for providing such a wonderful experience; it is a stay I will always cherish.

In general, Brazilians may not frequently use English, which can lead to some communication challenges. However, with friendly smiles and expressive gestures, navigating these interactions becomes quite manageable. The warmth of the Brazilian people often transcends language barriers, making it easier to connect and enjoy the experience.
