Being our 4th visit to a Windsor in Copacabana and our 3rd at the Excelsior we have a level of familiarity, and expectations which are consistently met. The staff on the ground level and front desk, the room cleaning staff, and of course the whole roof top crew are always professional and we have never been let down. Obviously we'll be back again.
The hotel/staff/location were great. Great view of the beach from the 5th floor. AC is powerful. The breakfast is amazing! The shower pressure is fantastic. The doors/walls are thin, so you can hear noisy neighbors sometimes. There wasn't a lot of room for clothes (we were there for 2 weeks and had a lot of clothes).
The check-in process is laborious and confusing. The staff is not very friendly. The rooms are very small. We were given two twin beds for a family of four. The sheets were stained and I had to request new ones. There are no amenities. The accommodation does not commensurate with the price and I guess people choose this hotel because it is close to the beach. I would definitely not recommend!!

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.
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 location is perfect; however, the manager Thiago is arrogant. The rest of the staff is okay, not particularly friendly except for the bellboys and the guys outside. On my last night, I couldn’t sleep because of the noise from the room above. I had to call reception three times (the guy on duty tried to help), but the following day, when I went to complain, the manager was arrogant again. I also noticed that the treatment toward Latinos isn’t the same as for Europeans. The cleanliness was good, but the hotel needs a renovation. The bathrooms look old, and the TVs are very small (the one in my room was fine, but the ones in other rooms were not as good).
