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.”

Beautiful location on Copacabana Beach!

Staff were so friendly! Breakfast buffet was extensive! Evening meal was delicious! Restaurant view overlooking the sea was beautiful.

Our tv wasn't connected to the internet and we couldn't access Netflix in the evenings. Everything else was great!

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.

Great location, incredible service, extremely safe

The hotel staff truly went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed our stay. I’ve never experienced service to this level in my life. We were incredibly impressed! The location was fantastic, but on top of everything, it was one of the few places in Rio where we felt safe. If you’re visiting Rio, we can’t recommend this place enough. It’s worth every cent!

Nothing. We can’t fault it!

Amazing stay, great value for your money

The hotel is in a great location, a few steps from the beach. The staff is very nice and professional. The room was very comfortable, nice bed, great hot shower, thick towels, everything was great really, I would stay here again for sure. There is an Italian restaurant connected to the hotel that is top notch! I would highly recommend everyone try it.

I can't think fo anything

Exceptional staff, very clean hotel! Beach was across the road but that did not take away from the experience! Hotel provided beach towel and has a stand on the beach for umbrellas and chairs! They even had small packs of mixed fruits provided free on the first day on the beach! Copacabana beach is to die for! Wave after wave! It was a great holiday with my adult daughters!! Unforgettable memories! I never had the hotel meals as I am not a breakfast person and preferred to eat out trying out different local delicacies!!

Amazing staff, amazing rooftop

Almost 200€ the room per night but you have to pay coffee in the room. It is a bit too light. Equipment in the room could be more modern. Air dryer is plugged but not enough leeway to use it properly. Rooms could benefit if a better soundproofing (we were at the 4th floor which was also a bit disappointing as we had an executive room)

Great hotel, my second time staying there. First time was with my wife, second time with Wife and kids (4 year old and 8

Well staffed and very helpful, Clean and was in a great location. Across the road from Post 5 Copacabana, and a short walk from Ipanema Beach. Plus the hotel have a section at the beach, where the have chairs and umbrella’s and provide Towels

Would’ve liked to see more Brazilian breakfast options available.

Great location and awesome service

Excellent location, and the staff is really friendly and helpful. For instance, they keep someone at the beach in front to help us with towels, food, etc. Room was spacious, bed was very comfortable, and the shower might have been the best I’ve ever seen! We didn’t even know there was a pool available (and they allow full access during the entire day of checkout, which is really nice).

I stayed for three nights and really enjoyed the breakfast — a wonderful spread with plenty of variety that I looked forward to each morning. The room offered a stunning ocean view right in front of Copacabana Beach, though it was a bit smaller than I had expected. The amenities were great overall.

Nothing particular.
