This place was beautiful, and the staff was beautiful from the time I arrived. It does have an outdoor pool up on the 16th floor that I didn’t get to try, but it looks wonderful and there’s a gorgeous view from up there, especially if you check it out at night time and my room was really nice, it was not one of the largest but I had a window with a View and the staff bent over backwards to help me. I really enjoyed it. I was not that impressed with the Copacabana beach area on Sunday evening when I arrived but first thing Monday morning it was gorgeous and not so full of so many people.

I arrived here with my two teenage daughters for our milestone bdays with great expectations for a 5 star hotel, but unfortunately, I do not think the hotel met our expectations. The welcome was not great (maybe because of our skin colour- at least that’s how we were made to feel) and the receptionist had a stony look with no smile and kept on scrutinising our passports for what seemed like 30minutes despite being British citizens!
Patrick, the staff member who escorted to our room, was very nice and thank you for your kindness.
I am a tea drinker and the hotel had no complimentary tea or coffee making facilities. I have travelled widely and in all continents and everywhere I went, I could make unlimited tea in my room! I had to order tea for a fee and was told to buy a packet of tea from a super market! Really?? I come to a 5 star hotel to buy my tea from supermarket?
We opted for dinner on our last night which costed nearly what would cost us in the UK and the carbonara was so awful that my daughters said they felt sick.
Overall, the hotel facilities and cleanliness were good. The location is slightly away from the main action but still great. However, the receptionist who welcomed us needs to learn some manners. I think they need to offer tea coffee as complimentary which is the case with many hotels across the world-3 star/4 star /5 star.
The receptionists need to be graceful and nice regardless of how the customers look.

Of all locations on Copacabana, we found this to be the best. You can walk over to Ipanema if you want. This end of Copacabana is a little bit more quiet than the middle of the Copacabana across from the Copacabana Palace, which we were actually very happy about. They have a great view from the upstairs pool. The beach is very convenient right across the street and it’s not a very wide beach so you don’t have to track for miles they provide you free chairs and umbrellas. The staff was unbelievably helpful and kind. Super nice people. Made you feel very welcome frankly I couldn’t give you a better rating if I could. I have been all over the world and for the Price, this is a phenomenal hotel.

If you're booking a hotel in Rio, this is my #1 choice. From check-in to check-out, this hotel was excellent. Their attention to detail, helpfulness, friendliness, and safety were the best we have experienced and we travel a lot! The location is excellent, right across the street from the beach where they have dedicated staff and chairs. The rooftop pool has gorgeous views and excellent service.

The front desk staff was a bit sterile. Also I requested a room high up very far in advance- they completely ignored this request, placing me on the third floor with a “partial ocean view” that was obstructed my trees. Thankfully, another house staff was able to move my room to a proper ocean view, but why didn’t they do this in the first place? Housekeeping was spectacular though. Have to pay for water and coffee in rooms!! Beach umbrellas a joke, as there were only a few in poor condition that seemed to be “up for grabs” from anyone. I paid extra to stay at this hotel thinking I would have beach umbrellas secured but this was not the case. Breakfast is expensive and not included in base pay. Personally I have traveled a lot throughout Brazil, and Rio- I do not think this is a great value for money and will likely not return here as there are much more affordable combinations with similar extra amenities (with exception of beach chairs, as this was the only hotel I could find in this price range that provided them- if you can call them that)

This hotel was great. I had the best time in several ways. The staff are so friendly, so attentive, so amazing. If you have any questions just ask them and even if they aren’t sure they will point you in the right direction. Renaco was so lovely, he helped us with idea on what to do and was really friendly and would always remind us to stay safe and look after our phone. Staying here was so worth it. I would definitely stay here again no doubt. The room is spacious, bathroom is also spacious. They have us a big bottle of water everyday. Everyone was so friendly and I would highly recommend staying here. Great location as well.

My recent stay at the Miramar was a mixed experience with positive memorable highlights, but unfortunately a couple of negative experiences overshadowed my stay. I was staying solo at the hotel for 4-nights, and was pleasantly surprised at the excellent facilities of the rooftop pool, gym and extensive breakfast. For someone who travels over 100 nights a year, this was one of the best breakfasts in variety, quality and added touches that I wouldn’t usually expect. The staff were attentive, always willing to help and I recall lovely interactions with the concierge daily. Unfortunately my stay was overshadowed by an unusual no-visitor policy in the hotel, meaning no visitor can enter the hotel beyond the lobby. I can understand this for security purposes and avoiding unpaying guests in using hotel facilities, e.g pool and gym. But for business travellers, this could be extremely limiting with not allowing guests to accommodate paying clients in the restaurant / bar, or collaborate in working areas. It was the handling of my complaint which was the frustrating element, with delays in response from management, the chasing with front desk, and often condescending comments and interruptions from staff when discussing my complaint. Additionally, due to the high security from the hotel, I felt a lack of privacy with someone watching your every move and I see this is a common thought noted by other reviewers. Overall, I’m highly satisfied by the hotels offering, but disappointed.

We had an amazing stay at the Miramar by Windsor Copacabana in Rio de Janeiro, and a lot of what made our trip so enjoyable was this hotel and its incredible staff.

Before arriving, I was nervous because we only speak English, but communication was never a problem. There were several English-speaking staff members throughout the hotel and restaurant, and everyone was kind, accommodating, and genuinely interested in our comfort.

The hotel was beautiful, clean, and very well maintained. We stayed in an ocean-view room, and the view was incredible. The room also included thoughtful extras like a complimentary fruit plate, robes, slippers, and a safe for our belongings.

The rooftop pool was one of the highlights of our stay. The views were amazing, and having food and drink service up there made it even better.

We also opted for the breakfast, which was excellent and offered tons of options. One of the best features was the omelette station where you picked your ingredients and they cooked a fresh omelette and brought it right to your table. The hotel also offered room service, which we didn’t use, but I imagine it was great as well.

Overall, I would absolutely recommend this hotel to anyone visiting the Copacabana area, and I would definitely stay here again.

I had a spacious room in good decorative condition with a direct view of Copacàbana beach. Strangely given the room size, wardrobe space was limited.The bathroom was also large and included an excellent shower. The breakfast buffet was superb. The roof top bar and pool was a welcome feature. The hotel sits at the southern end of Copacabana, so Ipanema is also within easy reach. Finally all the staff from the managers to the cleaners were welcoming and efficient. A difficult property to fault.

Not a 5-star property. The \"5-star\" label here is used the way \"artisanal\" is used on gas station sandwiches. It's a 3-star in a 5-star costume. Don't fall for it. Nuts & bolts below..

THE UGLY: They give you coffee pods but ask for ONE tea bag? That's extra. What arrives? An empty cup, a single tea bag, and a sachet holder with a dozen sugar packets. I wish I was joking.
Checkout is worse, You're held hostage while housekeeping inspects the minibar to confirm you didn't steal their precious 6 mini bottles of Red Label and vodka. Because apparently the $500 USD deposit on your card isn't enough collateral for $12 worth of liquor. Five star energy right there

THE BAD: The \"Luxo com cama casal\" upgrade is a straight-up scam. You pay premium for extra space that's basically a sealed-off balcony with zero function, an alcove cosplaying as a room. Save your money, book any sea-facing room. Oh, and even at the higher category, breakfast isn't included. The AC operates on vibes, not the temperature dial. Soap and moisturizer quality screams budget motel. And if you're a light sleeper, good luck, the sea-facing walls and windows let in every creak and groan like they're made of cardboard.

THE GOOD: Belldesk staff are genuinely wonderful. Sea views are lovely. It's right on the beach. That's it. That's the list.

The breakfast was excellent. A lot of choices. The free chairs on the beach were a great perk too. The pool was clean and the food at the pool area was delicious. The whole staff in every department made you feel like royalty. The beds were comfortable and smelled very clean. My only negative review was the gym. It’s very small and doesn’t have a flat bench or heavy weights. We had to go buy a gym membership up the block. Not a big deal for many but wanted to share my input. The AC was worked great and they also have 24hr room service. I would definitely stay here again. Thank you for making this a memorable stay!

This was a very mixed stay. We loved Rio but could not recommend the hotel.
1. Check in staff - they were so very rude. Just a reminder not to under estimate that not all travellers do not speak your language. The check in staff, including the manager were so rude - enough to consider if we would stay. Their laughing at customers is unacceptable. The staff member who checked us out was.loveky - thank you for your professionalism.
2. Rooms - rooms are fine. Great air conditioning. We requested a quiet room but got placed inbetween a party who had 4 rooms. They slammed the doors and ran between rooms for up to 3 hours. There is no free coffee in the rooms. They charge £14 for each nespresso - just be aware. We were out each day by 7am and ready for a shower by 4pm. Rio is hot! The rooms are not cleaned until 5pm. There is no shower gel provided in this 5 star superior hotel, just a bar of soap.
The neighborhood needs to be treated with care.

Breakfast is great. Waiters lovely. Pool looks unclean. Smoking allowed by pool even though notices say tgat it is not. Hopefully a fair and balanced review.

Positives
Great air conditioning
Great waiters
Breakfast good.

Cons
Very noisy
Watch the neighborhood
Rude staff at check in - hard to forget those first impressions.
Coffee charged for in the rooms.

Would not recommend. Plenty of other hotels to pick from.

The staff at this hotel are remarkable in their willingness to help / direct / or just talk. It seems like everybody enjoys working there. The place is well designed, with 3 elevators zipping people up and down w/out delay. The rooms are well appointed, and from my ocean-facing room I had an absolutely spectacular view of Copacabana Beach. It's a great place.
