Great location, if you're in Rio for the beaches (Barra da Tijuca is beatiful, and the hotel is right in front of the beach). Breakfast (included) is excelent. Lunch (not included) is also excelent. Rooms are very good, with a lateral view of the beach. More

Windsor Barra has to my opinion, only two advantages : (a) location and (b) genuinely friendly staff (especially housekeeping and dining room). Air conditioning in rooms extremely noisy to the extent had to be switched off at night + could not be properly regulated. Hotel charges for still water in room-fridge although no other drinking water is available. Price for... More

The hotel is located in a nice part of Barra da Tijuca, but I would not recommend it for someone going for the first or second time to Rio de Janeiro. The distances and the traffic in Rio are terrible, furthermore at this times when the city is preparing for 2014 and 2016 events. Ideal for someone who likes the... More

Very large rooms with a beautiful view to Barra da Tijuca beach. Very well located to stay there during Carnival as you will be away from closed streets, crowds and still quite easy to go from there to the Sambodromo. The nicest and most educated staff I have ever met in Brazil. The only thing I disliked is that the... More

We stayed in this hotel literally for one night while waiting for our flight back to Atlanta and we had one of the best days in Rio. The food was very good in the buffet with lots of seafood (for those that enjoy it) but plenty of options for those that don't. The service in the hotel was also very... More

The hotel is well situated being just across the road from the beach. Rooms are clean and comfortable. I was there on business but I got the feeling its not for holiday makers.Like all hotels in the area its expensive but not as expensive as the hotels closer to Rio More

Good and nice hotel in Barra da Tijuca. I.ll change the colour of the lobby from (the right now orange coral for an arena) The room Tv is old for the category and hotel rate. WIFI? FORGET IT. NO LOBBY FREE INTERNET and if u wanna pay an ridiculuos overpriced 30 dls per day, u'll dissapointted anyway. Tip: GO AND... More

We stayed only 1 day and as every hotel in High season in Rio it was very expensive (290USD per night). They charge you 10% for "Hotel service" which I don´t understand why. Internet is available in the room but for an outrageous cost (26 USD per day). For the room rate paid I don´t see why they have to... More

Have stayed at the hotel twice, and it was consistently good. This hotel would be at home in any major city in the US, and you would not know the difference. It does not have a "Rio feel", but it is a very fine business hotel. Lunch is the hotel restaurant is pricy, but as good as you will find... More
