We had a wonderful stay at the Windsor Excelsior Hotel in Rio de Janeiro. The hotel is perfectly located right across from the beach, offering beautiful views and easy access to the best of Copacabana. The staff was exceptionally kind and helpful, making us feel truly welcome throughout our stay. The breakfast was excellent, with a great variety and quality. Thank you to everyone at the Windsor Excelsior for making our stay so pleasant and memorable. We look forward to returning! Mia & Luis

Great property ideally situated in the heart of Copacabana. The staff provide excellent service, helpful recommendations and are multilingual. There are stunning views of the beach and even Cristo Rey from our rooms and especially from the rooftop pool. I felt safe staying there, plus loved the access to nearby restaurants, shops and cafes.

Overall good

Stay was ok. Rooms were clean but dated. AC makes lot of noise and there was dirt smell. Think due to old AC. Food, location and other amenities are 5 star. Roof top pool with bar and great views.

This hotel is conveniently located to all touristy things. When I had a room there, the shower head was missing and you could see that it was rusty. The shower did not look clean. The floor in our room was dirty, I knew this because after taken a shower, the bottom of my feet would always get dirty again. The employees are genuinely nice especially Lucas at the bar and in the dining room. It would be helpful in the future that they require Their employees to know the basics of English. Not many employees at the hotel could speak English and it was hard to communicate your needs with them. The food options for breakfast was very limited compared to other hotels. I have stayed at in the past I would like for the food options to be expanded for breakfast.

The rooms were great... the feel of the hotel was fantastic, the staff were all amazing. Given the chance, we would definitely stay there again. We have a family of 5, and the way they set up the adjoining rooms was a perfect solution. The pool was a bit small and super cold, but we did visit during their winter... and the views from the pool deck were pretty fantastic.

below average service in excellent location

The hotel is in the heart of the top tourist location but service, cleanliness, and condition are below average for a hotel at this price range. Three messages regarding need for early check-in were not answered. Did not agree to arrange airport pickup. A towel that had hair and scum was met with a cold apology when reported. No coffee maker in room. Would not stay there again. After several trips to Rio, I would not stay in Copacapana again because most hotels don't seem to care about customer satisfaction given the demand. I would stay in Ipanema which is a walking distance or can use a cheap taxi for a 10 minute ride.

The location is right on Copacabana beach and the view from the rooftop is wonderful. Front desk staff were courteous and helpful. Rooms, especially the bathrooms, could use some updating but beds and pillows were very comfortable. This is not a luxury hotel but is good value and an overall nice place to stay while in Rio.
