hotel · Botafogo & Flamengo

Windsor Florida Review

A large hotel of 422 rooms on Rua Ferreira Viana in Flamengo, a street back from the bay.

Best for

A second visit, or a first with time in itTravellers who want the city cariocas useAnyone watching what they spend without leaving the south

Why it stands out

The line under it. Botafogo and Flamengo score 9.0 for transport, the highest in the city, and this sits on that line rather than near it.

Main trade-off

The bay is for looking at rather than swimming in, and the ocean beaches are twenty minutes away. This is a big, plain hotel rather than a small characterful one.

Why we recommend it

Best for the metro and the rate

Our pick for the bay side because it is on a residential street in Flamengo, minutes from the metro that runs the length of this area and from the park along the water — which is what you come to this side for.
