Queríamos aclarar que nuestra hija quería tomar un sándwich del buffet sin saber que no se podía sacar comida. No fue por mala intención. Lamentamos si causó alguna molestia, pero nos sentimos muy incómodos por cómo nos lo dijeron, casi como si estuviéramos robando el Banco. Agradecemos que nos lo expliquen de manera más amable si vuelve a ocurrir algo así. Sentí terrible después de eso, nunca regresaré en su Windson Barra

Barra da Tijuca is far from the touristy areas, which appeals to me. It has a much calmer atmosphere. The hotel is within walking distance to the Sunday Farmers Market and within a cab ride away from a shopping center and the subway, which can take you to the better-known beaches of Leblon, Copacabana and Ipanema. The property was fairly clean and the staff very professional and helpful. The morning breakfast was excellent and the Saturday Feijoada buffet was not bad either. Now the bad. The hotel as some noted felt outdated. I would agree with that assessment. The hotel is not as ecofriendly as others either. It uses single use shampoo/conditioner plastic bottles instead of using the more ecofriendly in shower dispensers. The shampoo/conditioner provided were of poor quality. We ended up buying some at the grocery store. Another part that felt outdated was the in-room thermostat. It is still the old school dial instead of a digital one and there was no option to turn down the fan or set it to auto. For a high-end hotel, it did not offer family friendly rooms with queen size beds which is a shame given the room had plenty of room to support queen size beds. Another thing that I found annoying was that I was not able to charge meals to my room. The hotel did not even offer me the opportunity to have my credit card pre-approved for incidentals, which made it more difficult.

Avoid - for sure there’s better options.

This hotel is very outdated with mould in a lot of areas and not living to its star category. I’ve stayed here 1 night and won’t return. The staff is that sort that don’t look you in the eyes and speaks in monosyllables because they don’t take any care on providing a good service. Check in takes ages for no good reason, they just need for some reason to type and type and type and type and type some more into their computer. The bedroom is super dated, the normal superior room as only 1 smallish window with a side view of the ocean with a small TV and decor from the 80s. It is relatively big though. The bathroom is also dated and full of mould, this shouldn’t be allowed.
