DK Eyewitness "This beachside fourstar hotel is the Ipanema representative of the Best Western chain. Rooms are a little small with standard hotel furnish ings. The higher floors are quieter."
Time Out "The rooms are clean, well equipped and unremarkable affairs, but if you have the beach view and the sun is out then the lack of luxury indoors is probably going to be the least of your considerations." Full review
Star Service "Fronting a police post in the heart of Ipanema beach, one block from the famous Girl from Ipanema bar, near popular cafes and fashionable shops, this...hotel has an unbeatable location." Full review
National Geographic "Opposite the Posto 9 lifeguard station; one block from Garota de Ipanema bar." Full review

Fodor's "The Windsor Guanabara is one of the few solid hotel choices right in Centro. Rooms are reasonably sized and tastefully done in brown and beige." Full review
Time Out "This enormous glass hotel looms out of Centro and is tall enough to offer views of Corcovado and the hills to one side and Guanabara Bay to the other." Full review
Rough Guide "Expense-account visitors tend to stay at this lone luxury hotel in the city centre."
OysterMid-Range
