Windsor California Copacabana Hotel

Right across from Copacabana Beach, Windsor California offers sea views and a polished stay in one of Rio’s most walkable neighborhoods. There are 157 rooms with clean, modern decor, flat-screen TVs, minibars, safes, and free Wi-Fi. Some rooms have balconies overlooking the beach.

The rooftop pool and sun deck face the ocean, and there’s a gym and sauna for downtime. A restaurant and bar serve international dishes, and a breakfast buffet is available. The hotel is just minutes from bars, clubs, and tourist hotspots like Sugarloaf and Christ the Redeemer.
