Breakfast wonderful,,space and confortable room, safe area ,,nice swimming pool

Good experience overall

The hotel and the location was excellent I thought it was a beautiful choice the only issue I had was I felt that the food was overpriced and wasn't good there was also a noisy family next door which made it had to sleep on two minutes

Great location and quality property. Missing a good gym and beach club. Service just ok, zero extra effort, and cumbersome, slow and error prone checkin and out

This is a 3 star hotel - not a 5 star as advertised. It was priced for a 3 star, so it was an ok value, but when I booked I thought I was getting a deal on a 5 star.

Beautiful hotel!

The area is beautiful, safe and has nice restaurants near. The rooms are slightly small and it can get noisy if you have bad neighbours but it is otherwise ok. The hotel staff is great, very helpful. I also stayed my last day at beachfront hotel in copacabana but I would choose barra de Tijuca over any time specially if you are a first timer in Rio. Overall it was good quality- price and safe!

Perfect for everyone

Really nice Hotel, staff very professional, housekeeping very friendly. Reception staff very professional. The Hotel is a beautiful building and you cross the street you are in the Beach. Will book again at the same location.

The most helpful and secure place to stay as a solo female traveller. Amazing breakfast and one of a kind views. Loved it, I will definitely be back

Staff and service was great, great dining. Gym equipment and machines should be upgraded though and for the size of the hotel a larger area for it would be desirable.

I recently stayed at the Windsor Marapendi Hotel in Rio de Janeiro, and based on my experience, I believe this hotel does not meet the standards of a 5-star establishment. Here are several reasons why: Inadequate Amenities: Despite being a beachfront hotel, Windsor Marapendi failed to provide basic amenities expected in a 5-star property. When I requested a wine opener, the staff provided one that belonged to a staff member, not the hotel itself. This indicates that the hotel does not have essential items readily available for guests, which is unacceptable for a hotel claiming a 5-star rating. Limited Complimentary Water: The hotel only provides complimentary drinkable water on the first day of the stay and charges for it thereafter. In a true 5-star hotel, guests should expect daily complimentary bottled water as a standard service. This policy felt like a cost-cutting measure that detracted from the overall experience. Service Hours: Many of the hotel’s services have restricted hours. The gym is only open from 6 AM to 9 PM, and the pool and sauna close at 8 PM. High-end hotels typically offer more flexible or even 24/7 access to these facilities to accommodate guests' schedules better. Room Service and Cleaning: While room cleaning is available from 8 AM to 4 PM, there is no mention of evening turndown service or the flexibility to arrange cleaning at different times. Moreover, the lack of a comprehensive 24/7 room service further diminishes the hotel's claim to a 5-sta

Very friendly staff, very helpful. Breakfast buffet was very good. luxurious accommodations, incredibly clean. The one thing that I did not like was that they were terribly strict on visitors. I had a family friend come over to pick up some gifts or their family and have some private conversation. They were on the phone immediately to insist that the guest must either register as an occupant or leave. Even though the gift pickup and conversation would not last 30 minutes. I understand security (and appreciate it), but there was no risk or anything untoward here. There ought to be some consideration for the human aspect

It was a beautiful establishment with a very polite staff. Will definitely return.

this hotel was better than expected and the price was reasonable

Great place to stay at and the hotel staff was amazing.

It was our first time travelling to Rio, it took us 3/4 days of research to find a great hotel with a great price. This hotel delivered it! Although Barra da Tijuca is further away from the touristic area, it’s definitely worth the extra transportation time. The ocean is cleaner and the beaches less crowded, and most important, a lot more safe! The staff at the hotel was amazing, great service and care. Specially at dinner, the server named Willian was awesome!

The staff was amazing and helpful and always polite. Breakfast buffet was fresh and good choices. The fresh fish dinner was incredible and well presented.

comfortable, convenient, practical. ideal for business trips

Other than the windows being absolutely filthy on the outside, it’s a nice hotel and in a good location

Upgraded to a king size bed and they let me check in early

Nice and quiet stay. Delicious breakfast

Overall it’s a great hotel. The breakfast buffet is amazing and for the most part, staff were very helpful and professional. The location is safe but far away from shopping and very few restaurant options in walking distance. The beach was directly across the street and it was easy to get Uber or taxi quickly. We were able to take advantage of VIP status and got a room upgrade and late check out. I recommend this hotel especially if you are looking for something quite and safe.

Good location

Clean comfortable room with very little noise, just a few kids in the hallway once in a while. Great safe location with readily available transportation.

Great property! Nice location!!! Breakfast was fabtastic. The only down is the internet is terrible. It went from ok to poor.

The hotel is well located if you go to rio with car.Great breakfast and nice lobby , swiming pool is too small for all the hotel and little resting area arround it, the worst in my experience was the almost no window room they give me. it was about halt meter for half meter only, overrated for a no view room The service was great but not friendly ( few smiles for the customers)

The Property was excellent rooms spotless ,all Staff amazing service ,The Receptionist team were Great and easy to talk to if i go back heres ehere i would stay .thank you

I had a wonderful time with my friends. The hotel, while not posh, provided great service for the cost. I would definitely stay there again.

High quality staff. Excellent facility. Excellent breakfast and dinner options.

Close to the beach

Old hotel
