Great location facing Copacabana beach. Wonderful view of the beach and the aweeping Avenida Atlantica. Breakfast buffet was good if not spectacular - nothing changed over the 6 days we were there.The staff in the restaurant were friendly and helpful. On the negative side, I had booked a room for one person (myself) and because I was joined there by my wife, we had to pay considerably more (about USD 100 per night) for the same room because of double occupancy. It seemed excessive, especially since I did not get a room upgrade. I did not realize I was entitled to an upgrade as an Expedia Gold member but I asked for it since my wife was being charged so much for joining me.

Comfortable room & bed in very good location in Copacabana. Excellent shower head with lots of water flowing out (I had great cold or warm showers after a jog on the beach or full day sightseeing). Rooms had a safe and hair dryer (inside drawer in bathroom vanity). Breakfast buffet was plentiful and diverse, and the servers were helpful and pleasant. I would gladly stay in this property again.

Best place to stay in Rio! Breakfast was perfect and the rooftop view was outstanding. Via the concierge, we booked a tour to see Christ the Redeemer and Sugarloaf and it was well worth every Rial!

The hospitality during our stay at the Windsor California Copacabana was next level. From the front door, to the front desk, and every one in their dining/service, the staff at the Windsor California Copacabana were collectively beyond exceptional in every way. The surrounding area is unequivocally breathtaking and this hotel was the perfect place for our stay in this stunning city. Do not hesitate adding their breakfast for your entire duration here - further, do not miss dining in for at least one evening. We had their duck ravioli, mushroom risotto, crispy buffalo mozzarella and finished with the panna cotta and it was easily one of the most exquisite meals we enjoyed during our trip. Rio De Janeiro is a special place but it's the people here that left one of the most indelible marks upon our experience. Could not recommend this hotel enough.
