The only thing we did not like it, is that we were staying in the 4th floor and elevators, and we were with heavy luggage.

Before checking in, check that lobby air conditioning is working. We were told its off because its nice out.. then that's its broken and we spent 3 nights in 28 degree celcius room. Brutal is an understatement, no sleep and soaking wet.. DO NOT RECCOMEND THIS PLACE AT ALL. breakfast is good, along with breakfast staff.

My wife and I enjoyed our stay here at the Rio. The room was clean and relatively a good size. The staff was very helpful. My wife and I also enjoyed the Continental breakfast offered. The hotel is very conveniently located and is about 3 minutes to Piazza San Marco. Different kinds of eating places fill the area from ristorantes to osterias to pizzarias. In fact, soon as you open the door of the Rio Hotel you find yourself on the street with the Ristorante Convivio to the right. With servers like Glenn and Jack at the Convivio you’ll always get first class service.

La chambre était très bien et près de tout. Nous allions à pied aux divers intérêts touristiques. Je recommande fortement cet endroit.

Great location! Bed was comfortable, AC worked great. Breakfast was all you need with great service. Only complaints were that the bathroom just had a shower curtain with a drain. Flooded the bathroom every time we showered, and it was a little noisy from the restaurants below the hotel. Overall great stay!

Our stay at Rio was lovely thankyou. Only downside was the breakfast which wasn’t very nice.

Tiene súper buena ubicación, muy cerca de la plaza San Marcos. Es un hotel sencillo con súper buena conexión de Wifi. Fuera del hotel hay muchas opciones de restaurantes.

Great location, friendly staff, a bit of noise from the square at night but not terrible. Be aware there is no elevator if you need that, but there was a chair available that could take someone up the stairs if they needed that for mobility issues. Overall I would recommend this stay in Venice!

Pros- great location, minutes walk from Piazza San Marco, has several restaurants right beside it, breakfast had multiple options Cons- there was a very bad smell in the foyer and hallways ( perhaps from the nextdoor restaurants), the AC was not turned on even though we were there during a very warm spell (they did offer us a fan), noise from restaurants was fairly loud at night

Excellent Hotel! Nice fresh room and very clean. Breakfast was excellent with many choices - hot and cold. Location is excellent - in the heart of the San Marco minutes from Piazza San Marco. Located on a nice little Campo (square) with many restaurant choices. Windows are insulated so significantly reduce outside noise. We really enjoyed our stay at the Rio!

I recommend this place

The two men who worked at the reception were very attentive, accommodating, and helpful. Our TV wasn’t working properly at first, but they made sure that the issue was addressed immediately. The location is great, only a short walk from the water bus station (we had large suitcases so this was very convenient) and there are lots of food and retail stores immediately outside of the hotel. The room itself was very clean and had been renovated to make the most of the space. Just be aware that there is no elevator, only stairs. We would definitely stay here again if we travel to Venice in the future.

Un lugar tranquilo y prolijo acorde calidad precio, buena opcion para hospedarse sin gastar mucho dinero.

Clean room but very, very small. No closet space. Room was hot even with AC on. Bathroom was acceptable. No elevator. Had to climb stairs with luggage. Close to everything.

I really enjoyed my stay at Rio Hotel! The location is ideal for getting around central Venice, just a few minutes' walk from St. Mark's Square, and there are a lot of dining and shopping options right outside the hotel. The room was small but more than enough for my needs, and it was clean. The staff were friendly and helpful. I would stay here again and recommend this hotel to others!

Hotel Rio is located in a small square with many dining options. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We only paid for the English Breakfast one day but it had great options of bacon rashers, sausages, hash brown patties and scrambled eggs. The location is extremely convenient as it is only a two minute walk from the Vaporetto station. This gave us convenient access to the Train Station, other parts of Venice, and the islands of Burano and Murano. The square outside the hotel is quite lively but everything closes down precisely at midnight and it was quiet until 8:00 AM. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and loved exploring the streets of Venice. We would definitely recommend Hotel Rio to anyone visiting Venice. Grazie Mille!

Checkin was lovely and helpful. She gave us our room early. The maid provided a fan. Great shower, bed. Excellent location right on a square with many dining choices. However, pretty noisy at night- at least until midnight. Bring white noise. Didn’t add on breakfast. The room and choices seemed cramped and crowded. Breakfast was available at downstairs cafes.

Hotel Rio is in an excellent location. While there, I would say the service was average. But, the staff did something so exceptional regarding a problem I had, that I am giving them an excellent rating. I left my expensive iPad in the room after we left for Trieste. I called and said I’d be in Trieste for 5 days and asked if they could ship it to my hotel there. The Rio staff was extremely responsive and I received it via DHL 3days later, completely intact. Packaged incredibly well.Shipping charge only $30. You really want a hotel that will be helpful when you have a problem, and they really came through for me in an outstanding way. I’m so appreciative and impressed.

Nice location. Very tiny room

Accommodations were nice and the location was great! Near St. Marks, the waterfront and great eating everywhere.
