Perfect location, extensive and delicious breakfast, beautiful room overlooking Copacabana Beach, and friendly and helpful staff. A special thank you to João Marcelo Pais, the hotel’s Butler, who spent over 2 hours helping us after our domestic flight from Iguazu Falls to Buenos Aires was cancelled due to the Argentina union workers’ transportation ground strike. João was extremely patient and indispensable during a stressful time, and helped us find another flight into BA on a later date (via São Paulo) which would hopefully not be cancelled since it was an international flight. Thanks, João! You were right and we successfully made it to BA. We are so grateful to you for saving our vacation!

The hotel's location is truly extraordinary, providing easy access to various attractions, many of which are within walking distance. The ocean-view room offers a breathtaking perspective, allowing guests to fully immerse themselves in the beauty of the ocean and Copacabana Beach right at their fingertips. Positioned along the curve of the beach, the hotel serves as the perfect vantage point to witness the spectacular sunrise, creating an unforgettable start to your day. The breakfast experience is delightful, complemented by an amazing rooftop pool and bar that enhance the overall ambiance. What truly sets this hotel apart is its exceptional staff, who exemplify professionalism, politeness, and friendliness—qualities that are increasingly rare in the hospitality industry. A heartfelt thank you to Hotel Miramar for providing such a wonderful experience; it is a stay I will always cherish.

In general, Brazilians may not frequently use English, which can lead to some communication challenges. However, with friendly smiles and expressive gestures, navigating these interactions becomes quite manageable. The warmth of the Brazilian people often transcends language barriers, making it easier to connect and enjoy the experience.

Exceptional staff, very clean hotel! Beach was across the road but that did not take away from the experience! Hotel provided beach towel and has a stand on the beach for umbrellas and chairs! They even had small packs of mixed fruits provided free on the first day on the beach! Copacabana beach is to die for! Wave after wave! It was a great holiday with my adult daughters!! Unforgettable memories! I never had the hotel meals as I am not a breakfast person and preferred to eat out trying out different local delicacies!!

What’s there not to like

The hotel staff truly went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed our stay. I’ve never experienced service to this level in my life. We were incredibly impressed! The location was fantastic, but on top of everything, it was one of the few places in Rio where we felt safe. If you’re visiting Rio, we can’t recommend this place enough. It’s worth every cent!

Nothing. We can’t fault it!

The view was sensational. The staff and service was outstanding. Always clean, food was excellent- so much choice for breakfast. Best hotel ever stayed in for this kind of trip. It was our honeymoon and could t have chosen better place.

Would be good to have parasols at the pool as it was so hot (which is a great problem to have) genuinely the only thing could have improved on

Really friendly staff (especially the welcome staff) Big bed w/ great bathroom Stunning views from the pool Great location right on the beach with private beach section for hotel guest - amazing beach staff with cheap drinks! Good selection for breakfast.

Pool is quite small (but not sure what the average size is in Rio.) Decor is a smidge dated.

Perfect location, beach stunning and staff excellent. The restaurant food was also very good and we thoroughly enjoyed this part of our trip to South America

Nothing

The staff at the hotel were very friendly. My sister and I forgot our adapters to charge our devices & the front desk was kind enough to let us borrow some.

I'll highlight the location, the quality of the breakfast, and the willingness to help their staff. We spent our anniversary there, and everyone helped me with recommendations and even booked a nice restaurant for us.

Nothing that I can say.

We travel a great deal for work and pleasure so have a pretty good perspective, world wide, of hotel quality and value. Miramar Windsor Copacabana was excellent on all levels including location and 5 Star breakfast. Don't miss the roof top bar - the view is superior. Hospitality royalty! Thank you ever so much

My only tiny negative comment is charging, p/ "coffee pod used," for using the Nespresso coffee maker in the room. It is indeed a minor charge but have NEVER been to a hotel anywhere in the world charging for this. It is not the money but it does not seem befitting a property of this quality.
