Friendly, but avoid if you can
The staff were very kind and helpful, but this is far from a four star hotel. The property is quite worn and could use a renovation. I also saw loose hairs in my room, the shower products looked expired, the shower head was rusted/molded and the shower itself looked like it was made of raw dry wall.

Localização e café da manhã são o ponto forte
Como é a quarta vez que me hospedo no Windsor Excelsior, sendo que a anterior foi em 2016 acho que está no hora de uma reforma no hotel... não dá mais para ter bidê no banheiro.
Mas o quarto é amplo, o café da manhã excepcional, a cama é espetacular e a localização perfeita.

The Windsor hotels are the Mc Donald’s of hotels. Unfortunately my customer decided to put me there. Air conditioning is old and noisy, there is no hot water in peak hours, the room was dirty, I found an empty package of crackers yesterday when I went back to the room and it was not mine. Today at 7am someone entered in my room (staff I assume). The personnel simply do not care. Will never use again Windsor hotels.

I recently stayed at Windsor Excelsior and I had an excellent experience. The staff was really kind. The property is ideally located in Copacabana, in front of the beach with easy access to local shops and restaurants.
I highly recommend this hotel. I would definitely return.

Staff friendly and were quick to handle tasks. Good area. While there are better places, I often staff here because of the value. The price point is good. It is a safe, clean, dependable option, with good restaurants nearby. Everything you need is nearby, pharmacy, money exchange.
