Hotel Nacional Rio de Janeiro OFICIAL
Great hotel and great breakfast. Room was clean and comfortable. Beach right across the street. A little bit out of town which makes it slower and quite but main attractions are about a $8-10 uber ride...get uber which is cheaper than taxis. Overall, highly recommend but if you're looking for night ...

Windsor Barra Hotel
Everything ok. Nice Hotel..The only con is they spray too much air freshner in the room, is very invasive. People very nice. Very good Breakfast. Furniture a little old style, it has a 1980s/90s vibe." It' s time for a furniture makeover to modernize the guest rooms
