Miramar by Windsor Copacabana

8/10 Good

"Nice hotel with great view of Copacabana beach - small rooftop pool area but free chairs/umbrellas on beach too. Great selection at breakfast. Room was spacious with huge bed and bathroom - colour scheme a bit dull and only downside was no balcony which would've been nice to enjoy view more from room"
