10/10 Exceptional

The hotel may not be in the best part of Rio but it is a very nice hotel. Our twin bed room was very clean, comfortable and spacious with a lovely bathroom with powerful shower. Breakfast was very good with a choice of hot or cold food. We had dinner a couple of evenings and the food was excellent and service from the waiting staff was excellent. We would definitely stay here again and the prices were very reasonable.

so many homeless people staying around the hotel
irfan, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

It is a good business hotel, although since my last visit, a few amenities have been removed, such as the sitting area - no more sofa or armchair to sit and relax. Just a bed and a mall chair. Also, no coffeemaker in the room.
Daniel, 7-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

My stay here in Windsor was amazing, the location in the downtown, near to the airport and other facilities like museum and Sambódromo. The costumer services was really helpfully and kind all the time. Breakfast option 10/10.

Overnight stay before crossing

Overnight start before boarding a cruise ship. Breakfast was very good.
Geoffrey, 1-night trip

The breakfast and catering team are second to none. The hotel needs to focus on communication and not taking advantage of clients.

The hotel itself is excellent. As soon as you step outside you’re risking your life. Filthy dirty, loaded with homeless people doing very obscene things on the street, lots of beggars.
Deanna, 2-night trip

Convenient ad reasonable

Convenient location, not safe outside hotel. Reasonable price and breakfast buffet
2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good for business travel

The Guanabara is a very good hotel in Rio. It is in the Center and the business district. Clean and nice facilities. The only negative is it is a long way from the tourist district, if you are interested in taking advantage of any of the tour companies or famous beaches.
2-night trip

8/10 Very good

I had a wonderful day there, but I was a little concerned about walking around at night. So I just stayed in, the hotel restaurant was very good.
Cory, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Good hotel in downtown Rio de Janeiro, area around hotel is jot that pleasant but hotel has good transportation options to all rio main attractions
Alessandro, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Hotel is just okay, we needed a place closer to the airport for one night and so this place worked for that. Price was reasonable and rooms are spartan, but you get what you pay for, nothing to complain about. I would not stay here more than one night as there is nothing to do in Centro and you would be constantly going back and forth to other parts of the city.
Priyank, 1-night trip

Very close to metro line :)
