Windsor Atlantica

The nicest hotel on the less costly Copa Cabanna beach side. Nice room with a great view of the ocean. Friendly staff. Love the rooftop pool. Close to everything

This am my husband went up to their concierge asking for help to call our tour service if they will be on time for 9:00am pick up, the black guy (excuse my description since I forgot his name) responded «did u book this tour wt our hotel?, my husband said No and the guy told my husband if by 9 ur tour guide not here go outside and use public phone dial 9 and have the operator call for u and u have to pay «. So RUDE, this guy is placed in the wrong department!!! He even argued wt my husband that today is Wednesday when its actually MONDAY… He is still in DREAMLAND

Across from the beach. Included is free umbrella, chair and towels for beach. You get service for drinks as well.
It is very nice inside, just one step down from staying at Copacabana Palace.
Service is excellent. They are attentive without being snobs. Desk can give change for money, but can’t pull money from debit card. There is bank nearby.
Ask for beach view.
Pool is beautiful and never seen it crowded. It overlooks beach as well.
The food is okay here, but so many places nearby have better tasting food and less expensive.

Absolutely loved this 5 star hotel! The rooms were big and comfortable. They upgraded our room to one with beach view and it was so worth it. My husband and I loved our stay here, the pool on the 38 floor is amazing and they have another pool on the 4^th floor.
The breakfast buffet was delicious they had an omelet station, fruits, breads, warm plates, juice bar, salmon, jams, cereals, and more. We would definitely come back again.
The bed was a king size bed and super comfortable. The room was spacious and clean. I have no complaints about the service. I only wish they open the 38^th floor pool earlier so we could have taken sunrise pictures besides that we loved this hotel.

I booked this hotel via Hotwire. I was excited to stay at one of the premier hotels in Rio, right off Copacabana Beach. The lobby is absolutely stunning and regal.
I’m indifferent to the service. The front desk attendants were very polite and accommodating, as well as the servers in the restaurants. However, every time we returned from an outing, the security would give us odd stares as if we weren’t staying there. One even questioned us on where we were going and asked to see our room cards. I thought this was very demeaning and prejudice.
As mentioned, the front desk attendants were the best. We were initially placed on the 9^th floor in a double bed room with a side view of the beach. We requested a king size bed with an ocean view and they kindly obliged.
We only had breakfast two mornings, but they offer EVERYTHING imaginable! Get there early to ensure a table with a view.
The rooftop pool is relatively small, but it’s a nice relaxing area. Sugarloaf Mountain and Cristo Redentor are both visible from the rooftop. The caipirinha’s are refreshing, be sure to order one as you take in the scenery.
There are beach chairs and umbrellas available on the beach area directly in front of the hotel. We made the mistake of paying for one on our first trip to Copacabana.
I would definitely stay at Windsor Atlantica again, however the security issues mentioned above need to be addressed.

I cannot express enough how much I LOVED staying in this hotel. My friend and I stayed here for the first few nights of our trip. By the end of the stay, we were super spoiled and did not want to leave. Our flight got in pretty early and we thought we may have had to wait to check in. However, there were no issues at all. Our guy was able to get us a corner room on the 25^th floor — we had amazing views of the beach. The room was clean and the beach was conveniently located across the beach. The hotel pool also provided some great views, but why go there when you have the beach right there? The breakfast was delicious and the options were endless. Gotta say I enjoyed the omelette and fruit stations the best.
Another added perk was their beach services. You were able to borrow beach towels in the lobby and there was a dedicated stand on the beach where you were able to check out some chairs and umbrellas as patrons of the hotel. This was a great amenity to have when you want to hang out for a few hours but wanted the option to get away from the sun a bit. Additionally, the hotel offered currency exchanges and did not charge a fee — not having to locate a money exchange shop was fantastic.
Will definitely stay here again if I have another opportunity to return to the beautiful country that is Brazil :).

My best friend I stayed here last week during Carnaval and it was great. At the front desk we were greeted by Julio which was beyond friendly. He gave us suggestions, things to do, safety tips… His customer service was more than expected. We were grateful for all his help. His warm personality, humor, and service are just a few reasons why this 5 star hotel is successful. I will recommend this hotel to anyone that is traveling to Rio De Janeiro, Brazil and suggest you stay in Copacabana. Make sure to see Julio for his expertise.

Everything about this hotel is perfect. The lobby is beautiful, the views from the beach side rooms are stunning, and the service is impeccable. I’ve stayed here about 4 times this past year, and I will definitely be back. Don’t forget to stop by the rooftop pool for breathtaking views of Copa Cabana. Also, most people turn away housekeeping services. Don’t. They leave you delicious chocolate truffles with golden Rio themed stampings. Another thing I love about this hotel is the high quality bar soap. Call me crazy, but I always request extra :) Last time, they gave me extra chocolate too. Love this hotel! Only downside is potentially spotty wifi. If you get the room with the gigantic mirror, you will have wifi issues. When this happened, they had to bring a router to my room to get the wifi to work. The whole ordeal took about an hour.

A great place to stay (once you get in). The check in process is very slow. Only 2 people at the counter to assist in the process, though our guy was great. He spoke English, was very helpful with all questions. The check out process was horrendous. The line was very long, and only 3 people at the desk. There was a huge conference checking out at the same time. I think they should anticipate this.
It’s great that you can check your luggage in with them for storage as check out is 12:00, but our flight didn’t leave until 10pm. I really was disappointed that they wouldn’t let us use the gym shower, and there’s no pool shower to freshen up prior to heading to the airport after walking around in the hot-​humid weather or going to the beach. There are gross 1 minute showers on the beach that you can pay for.
The room was phenomenal. 2 beds on the 24^th floor overlooking Copacabana beach! Very clean and spacious. Great bathroom products. The bed and pillows are so comfy. I wish I could have stayed longer just to enjoy the room. The roof top pool and bars/​seating area are beautiful with amazing views.
We felt safe at all times. concierge can get you a cab or private car. We opted for private car as cleaner than taxi and a fixed price. We were really tired of getting ripped off by taxi drivers in Rio.
The buffet breakfast is amazing, extensive and so delicious!
Location is convenient for getting around and is across the street from the beach in Leme. A bit of a distance to walk to Copacabana shopping and Ipanema.
Free wifi in the room!
Hot tubs in the «spa» are very dirty from likely people who came from the sandy beach.

Nice hotel but check in is a mess. Your room won’t be ready until late. Location on the strip is not the best. Stay in inanema! The beach is much nicer and so are the people. Copacabana is overrated and the beaches north and south are way better and so are the restaurants and stores. Copa is a dump compared to ipanema. The hotel was very clean and the staff was great. Was just shocked that the surrounding towns were so much better then copa. We spent almost every day outside of copa.

Great location on Copacabana Beach, within walking distance of a lot of bars, cafes, restaurants and the beach of course. Rooms are a little dated, but clean nonetheless. Most of them have ocean views. Staff are friendly and helpful, but the place is always busy. All in all, a nice place to stay…

I can only speak to the lobby and bar as I am not staying here. I can say that from my limited experience here in Rio that the lobby tends to be indicative of the room. Assuming that is the case here, this is a VERY nice hotel. Everything is marble or crystal in the lobby. There is a nice and largely visible security team in place at all turns. I had the opportunity to stay here for this trip and declined because it was an extra $ 100 a night.
Next time I come down, I will spend the extra $ 100 and stay at the Atlantica.
And this is coming a very frugal reviewer.

O hotel é muito bem localizado, perto de bares, restaurantes e fica de frente pra praia, meu quarto tinha vista lateral pra praia do Leme.
O hotel em si nao tem glamour, é relativamente pequeno, mas peca pela falta de modernização, um dos elevadores estava com defeito e me decepcionei especialmente com os quartos, o meu era bem antigo, com carpete e moveis da decada de 80… a TV era de tubo e a imagem nao era das melhores, o ar condicionado era barulhento tambem. O que nao entendi é que o banheiro me pareceu ter sido reformado há pouco tempo, era moderno e muito bom.
Destaque pro otimo atendimento dos funcionários do hotel e pro excelente café da manha com frios, sucos, paes diversos, ovos com bacon e ate salmon defumado.
Ótimo hotel para quem nao se importar tanto com quarto e sim com ótimo serviço e boa localização.

Numa localização privilegiada entre o Leme e Copacabana, o Windsor Atlântica é lindo e oferece aos seus hóspedes apartamentos bem amplos e com vistas maravilhosas. Além disso todos os apartamentos contam com ar-​condicionado, frigobar, wi-​fi, TV por assinatura e cofre.
O hotel criou um programa de fidelidade com diversas vantagens para seus hóspedes como mordomo, drink de boas vindas e café da manhã especial. Claro que não é fácil para ter todas essas regalias neh!
Lazer não falta. O hóspede que decidir ir a praia pode usufruir de espreguiçadeiras, toalhas e barracas fornecidas pelo hotel. Mas ainda conta com duas piscinas, sendo uma no terraço com uma vista maravilhosa de Copacaba e do Leme, além de um SPA que oferece os mais variados tipos de tratamentos de beleza e relaxamento.
Possui dois restaurantes. O Alloro fica no lobby e é dedicado a cozinha italiana. O The View e localiza-​se no 4º andar. O nome já diz tudo pois oferece uma vista linda da praia. Nele é possivel degustar uma maravilhosa feijoada no sabado e esbaldar-​se no champagne brunch no domingo.
O corpo de staff é bem preparado e extremamente profissional.
Mas prepara bem o bolso pois o custo é alto!

Schöné Aussicht von der Dachterrasse, schöné Zimmer. großes Frühstücksbüffet.

The Windsor Atlantica is a modern luxury hotel on the Copacabana, located close to Leme and the sugar loaf.
With its 39 floors, it overlooks the entire copacabana beach and the Avenida Atlantica. Actually, most rooms face the beach or look at least along the coastline. Only a few rooms have a limited view towards the city or even a concrete wall.
The rooms are modern designed, for a luxury hotel rather small and have windows, which can be opened.
There is pool on fourth floor, which is in the noisy Princessa Isabella Street, and a second one on the roof. The latter one is quite small and more to slide slowly into the water than to swim, but features a spectacular overview! Besides the pools, there is a beach service, providing chairs and umbrellas on the beach.
Restaurants serve with style and great effort, but are rather expensive.
