Decent hotel . Not a 5 star but a decent 4 star . Missing some bits to be considered as a 5 star.
Shout out to fernando and marcio who were excellent staff round the pool . Making sure our drinks were full and always with a smile .
Also Monique are cleaner was excellent and attentive to our requests.
Reception staff that done our check in and check out were very good as well.
Found it slightly odd all the sales people trying to sell time shares all over the hotel .
Breakfast staff were great and happy . The evening staff not so much .
Overall it was a good stay and good value for money
Very nice hotel right on the beach. With 2 swimming pools, one of them heated. Very nice staff. Mostly Pedro from the restaurant and Eduardo from the reception.

The hotel is in a very good location , 5 minutes walking and you are on the beach . It’s a very beautiful building and the room is clean, the service was very good, all the employees were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was very good, with many options, including fruits and local things. We stayed during New Year’s Eve , and we choose a good place to escape from the crowd Copacabana, Praia do Recreio is more quiet and clean, there were some noises from fireworks but nothing comparing to Copacabana.
It was great to travel through trip.com
I was a little worried because the company wasn't Brazilian, but I trusted and everything worked out well and at a great price.
Vila Gale is wonderful, my girls loved it and so did I. My husband really needed a moment like this. Thank God everything is going well.
We love the hostel, only points are the distance to the beach where it happens by a very poorly located track or by vehicle, I don't advise to stay in the hostel if you don't have a car. Another morning coffee point could be a little earlier and the shower does not warm mt, the inlet service to the exit was impecable.
Excelente hotel!
Superou as minhas expectativas!
Servico super personalizado, sempre muito atenciosos!
Nada nos faltou!

Great hotel with a great location - besides being on Copacabana, Ipanema is also within walking distance. The room was very clean, and you also have great French cosmetics Lóccitane for hair and body. I have no words to describe the great breakfast, which was very rich! I am very happy with my 5-day stay here and would come back again.Free chairs and umbrella on the beach.Amazing view from the bar and rooftop pool.Most delisious coffe I've had her in Rio.
Great

GGuest UserWe booked this hotel in Nov at an inflated price of $1500 USD for 4 nights assuming there'd be rooftop access on NYE since the hotel website didn't call out a ticketed event for that night. When we arrived, the staff told us it was in fact a ticketed event for an additional $300 USD. Perhaps our oversight but we scowered the website before booking at such a high price and it wasn't there. The manager was very helpful in accommodating a cancellation if needed, ultimately we were too tired to pack and unpack again and waste another day in transit so we stayed and bought the tickets.
Check in is 2pm. We arrived at 1pm and they said they had a room for us. It wasn't ready so we went to the pool where again, service was wonderful. Front desk gave us a tour of 2 rooms to choose from which was great, but then msgd me and said they'd have a diff room ready at 2:30. We went down at 3pm and the room changed yet again and the new room still wasn't ready. We got a room with no apologies at 4pm.
The room was standard. Strong cleaning smell but decent. The shower hose didn't stay in place. The shower drain did not work at all - we had to kick the water to the corner each time for it to drain or pools of water stayed until the next day. The sink also didn't drain. The toilet stopped flushing. We had a plate with one chocolate on it from NYE which by the next day was covered in ants. We are very tidy girls and give some grace for older hotels to have some flaws, but the experience for the price we paid made us appreciate the airbnbs we'd stayed at before checking in here.
Location is great, gym and pool are great, but not worth the $ for NYE or Carnival.

GGuest UserThe hotel has a nice location on the beach, but the property could do with some updates.
The first room I went into had a funny smell, so I reported it to reception. The male receptionist looked at me, and as if he doubted my word
After I insisted, he assigned me a new room, but it was left to me to move my luggage. . No support was offered and I couldn’t be bothered to ask.
I did ask if there would be any complimentary water put in the room. He said he would get housekeeping to put some water, but I’m still waiting two days later. 
Power outlets in the room are limited and not designed for modern travel. No USB points.
The TV is old and not smart or Internet connected. There are no cable channels so nearly all of the channels are local language apart from one CNN news channel in English..
The hotel is quite noisy and dogs. The walls are thin and guests scrape furniture across the marble floors. This is relatively easy to remedy if the hotel cared.
The rooftop pool was disappointing as it’s quite small and normally full of kids.
The restaurant is closed after breakfast. There is a bar, but it’s never open..
The biggest problem I had was the Internet. It did not work properly in my room and kept cutting out every few minutes. I had to stand in the corridor or come down to the lobby in order to get any decent coverage. I complained to the staff, but they did nothing and just told me it works.. This was extremely frustrating and I certainly wouldn’t come back to this hotel again.
NNicholasThis property has the potential to be amazing, but it needs a few key updates. The location is fabulous, the staff is excellent, and the restaurant is great both in terms of service and food quality.
The room was spacious, and the balcony was unbeatable. If you only speak English, you can get by staying here because all of the staff speak excellent English. We encountered a problem when the showerhead broke off, but the repairman came reasonably quickly to replace it, and he was very polite and not disruptive. We ordered room service, and Dom Rio, the hotel’s restaurant, delivered it quickly. I had the filet which was cooked properly to the correct temperature (medium rare). My fiancé had the alfredo pasta which she liked a lot. The breakfast had a huge selection, and everything tasted good.
The only thing keeping this hotel from earning top marks is the general state of much of the decor in the rooms. The curtains look shabby and dirty from moisture, and the wood of the cabinets is warped also. It is very hard to maintain a room that is constantly exposed to salt water and ocean breeze, but the materials chosen have not stood up to age.
I would recommend staying here if you are interested in staying in Barra at a nice but reasonably priced hotel, but don’t expect the finest luxury. Expect a very large, fairly clean room with a comfortable bed and an amazing view.

去去有風的地方The hotel is 390 meters away from Copacabana Beach. The location is good. The entrance to the hotel is right next to the subway station. It is very convenient to use the subway service. There are many choices for breakfast. The price/performance ratio is good. It is recommended to stay.
GGuest UserI checked into the hotel and was very impressed at everything, the welcome, genuine friendliness from the front reception staff, but in particular one person was an absolute diamond!
Mr Barbosa helped me with first aid and assistance getting to hospital after I was hit by a motorcycle whilst crossing the road. He went above and beyond for me, helping me to remove my heavily blood stained shirt and freshen up before hospital. He did everything possible to help me - it was an outstanding effort! Amazing ! A real hero!
RRicardoHotel meets the basic requirements, but it is very well located, staff are very attentive, cleanliness is ok, I didn't use the pool, but it was very clean, the view from up there is beautiful.
NNicholasThis hotel is a great stay in Barra.
Like a lot of hotels in Rio, this one is old. The place has some relics of the last century: the phone is old, the furniture is old, etc. However, it makes up for it in other ways.
The service is excellent at this property. The breakfast is very good, the room service is great and cheap, and all of the staff from doormen to bellhops to reception are attentive and professional. The breakfast attendants are more professional than most local waiters. You will get excellent service here.
The hotel is also very pretty despite its age. The hallways and lobby are large, and it looks premium. The location is incredible if you like Barra. We only stayed one night, but we had a decent side view of the ocean from our room, and we easily had enough time for a nice walk on the beach before check-out.
Windsor Barra Hotel is a great value; stay here if you value service and excellent access to Barra’s beach.

GGlenio GarciaI bought the four-day breakfast package from the trip and was informed by the hotel that the meal is not included in the daily. I would like the trip to answer me about this situation, because I have already tried to talk to the company without success .
GGuest UserWe really liked the service, the night staff, who were super helpful and receptive, but on the website it shows that there is a swimming pool and when you search it says that there is a swimming pool, when you arrive at the hotel there isn't one, and it says that there is no additional pool. 1 year, plus we called to confirm if the pool was working and they said it was, negative point! I thought there was little variety at breakfast from one day to the next, and when you turn and move it, you could see a fly wanting to land on the bread, but there were about 3 different types of bread, cakes, desserts, the only one I liked was tapioca. with condensed milk, there could have been a greater variety, other than that the cleanliness was 10 to 0, it always seemed like we were arriving in the room for the first time, the cleaning lady was super friendly, and the location was perfect, we were able to walk to the beach. harpoador and Ipanema, the Copacabana fort is next door, and everything by Uber is very close, cable car, Christ, what was really missing was the pool!
GGuest UserThe hotel hosts parties in its restaurant until the early hours of the morning, at very high volume and without any acoustic treatment. Rude treatment in the restaurant.
