I stay at Windsor Barra last September for a Conference. We were a group of 6 people from Portugal. The hotel is very good decorated, excellent location for a great beach. The double rooms are very good but all to the left or right side of the hotel. Very clean and all the staff (including cleaning staff) was very helpful... more

This is essentially a modern business conference hotel and for that, it works well. For a family, there are better beaches in Rio although there is nothing wrong with that stretch, but there are few activities for kids etc. Its safe and secure. General staff were above average and the conference staff are superbly helpful. The internet is iffy but... more

A standard, functional option in Barra. Beach right opposite, and the views were nice, except for the rain! Room was fine with a little balcony, which was nice. Breakfast was nothing exceptional, but OK, likewise for dinner. more

In agreement with other reviewers - the only reason we were booked at this hotel was a conference. Since this property is used often for business, the hotel should adopt a more enlightened internet policy. $50US for a 24 hour wireless connection is absurd, after paying hundreds per night for a room. According to staff, this outrageous policy is controlled... more

Stayed for a business meeting. Barra is a long way from the centre/interesting parts of Rio so quite a journey and often terrible traffic jams. The beach at Barra and the esplanade is very beautiful until you look inland and see the Miami-style development of huge apartment blocks. The hotel is fine but boring. The restaurant a massive (and while... more

One of the nicest hotels I have stayed in. Great staff and service One of the greatest beaches in the world.... I WOULD recommend anyone to stay at this hotel. Learn some Portugese as it is cheaper to take the cabs parked outside than to use the drivers waiting outside. more

I thought I had sent up a review earlier but somehow it was not reflected. I notice that a number of the reviewers are conference attendees and so was I. Thats probably the reason to stay at the hotel. It is pretty far from downtown and during a rushhour period, I was almost late for an event. The hotel is... more

Spent 4 nights at the Windsor Barra - attending a conference at the hotel. Staff were excellent. I was upgraded to a suite - excellent. But I could not get the internet to work...I had 3 staff helping to get it sorted. Then everytime they saw me in the hotel - they stopped to ask me was everything ok, was... more

I stayed three nights at the Windsor Barra to attend a conference, which was also held in the hotel. The hotel is located right across the street from the beach in the nouveau riche enclave of Barra da Tijuca, which is on the outskirts of Rio. This is not the place to stay if you want to experience the real... more

The hotel is situated on Ave Atlantica overlooking the Beach in the BARRA (pronounced Baha) section of Rio (there is another Windsor located in Copacabana) It is modern, clean, and definitely a five star Hotel for Rio. The front desk staff is quite pleasant and accomodating, as was the bellmen and the doormen. The buffet breakfast (included) is quite good... more
