My stay at Miramar by Windsor Copacabana was outstanding. The staff was professional, friendly, and welcoming, which made the whole experience feel warm and personal. The restaurant was a highlight of my trip — breakfast was absolutely delicious and the perfect way to start the day, and dinner in the evening was just as memorable, both for the food and the atmosphere. Truly a beautiful hotel with excellent service.

It has been a third year in a row I spend holidays in Rio staying at this hotel. It has always been great - friendly staff, clean room great amenities for the price - great value. I also believe the restaurant is underrated - the lunch and dinner there were really good (and we tried many plates), plus my son really enjoyed the nutella-strawberry pizza they make. Definitely worth staying at.
