Miramar Hotel by Windsor, Rio de Janeiro
Expert reviews
“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.
“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.”

Luxurious bed, spotlessly clean and attentive staff.
The rooms were luxurious and the bed was a dream to sleep on - the room and bathroom was spotlessly clean. We were very comfortable at the hotel. The lobby is quite small and can feel crowded at times. The staff is very attentive and helpful as you would expect from a hotel like this. It is easy to get a Taxi or Uber from the entrance- security is also great! The hotel supplies chairs, Umbrella and supplies beach towels. We were very happy with our stay.
A recommendation is not to have to charge your clients a premium in the room for a morning pod of expresso for the machine in the room. Small thing but it did seem unnecessary!

Very good
Located in very good area on Copacabana,wonderfull view from the pool area on the rooftop,very nice staff,the bed very comfortable.
The size of the standard room is very small ,you don t have natural light in the room,the window is located somewhere inside the building.One day during shower waited for more than 10 minutes for hot water,instead i needed to wash my hair with cold water.Even after 15 minutes the water was cold.For a 5 star hotel that s crazy.

Enjoyable, would stay again.
Great breakfast choices. Large comfortable room and bed with nice extras. Very convenient location for all top sightseeing attractions. Air conditioning throughout hotel and room. Late check-out available. Very helpful and polite staff.
Had to ask 3 times to have my room refreshed. Food and drink in restaurant disappointing, fish undercooked and dish tastless. Mango juice also tasteless. Key card didn't work on several occasions so had to get it changed at reception. No non-alcoholic drinks available i.e beers, wine & cocktails.

Our good experience
Room and view was good, Gym has weights! (2 weight machines of Pull/Push) Food was good, chef knows what he does Stuff was helpful and really good service Really welcoming and we had a great stay
Overpriced everything, even adding breakfast separately from Booking is much more expensive Pool was a bit small and dirty They did not have much tanning beds so we had to wait few hours until we could sit there

A great location and welcoming staff.
We had a beach view and it was lovely to look out on every morning and evening. I loved the variety of food at breakfast no matter if you went early or late. The staff are very helpful and friendly. The location was perfect.
I felt the entrance was quite dated and could have had more contemporary and inviting decor.. and perhaps a welcoming scent but these are very minor details. Nothing that would spoil the stay but just enhance it. The pool at the top is very small for the size of the hotel. The kids menu isn’t a kids menu, it’s just a small portion. Perhaps review your amenities and provisions for young children.

Great location, great staff. Room was had amazing view of the beach and coastline. Everything was great. Easy walk to Ipanema beach and very easy to get to sights by Uber. Umbrellas and chairs provided on the beach was a nice touch. Pool had great views and Sauna was sooooo nice. Gym was small but adequate.

Our 2 week stay was incredible! The Staff is friendly and extremely professional. The front desk, restaurant staff and the cleaning staff made us feel like family. They remember our names and always have a warm and friendly smile! the location is perfect with that wonderful rooftop pool with an incredible view of Copacabana beach. We had a corner ocean view room that was perfect!! Look forward to our return stay in the future!!

I stayed in this hotel for around 15 nights over three different stays. All my stays they maintained a very good standard. The staff is very welcoming, housekeeping is very good. We really enjoyed the breakfast and the beach service. If you opt the ocean view I can tell it is worth the money.
Bathroom is one department where they could and should improve. The shower only has one option, and it is not even adjustable. We also did not have a toilet brush.

Amazing vacation in Brazil/Rio
Closeness to the beach - great buffet breakfast selection/ amazing actually/ - friendliness of staff. We could have an early check in - arrived at 7.00 to the hotel - for half price of the room rate, that was perfect.
I’d have loved sun-umbrellas over the sun-beds, only the tables had them, it was scorching hot, shade would’ve been appreciated.
