When booking a 3-star hotel, the expectations are for a Holiday Inn/Best Western type property. Hotel Riviera Fiumicino looks and feels more like a hostel than a hotel in all respects.
Shuttle service from the airport is available but NOT free and only a few euros less than a taxi/Uber (and charged per person). We have waited almost an hour for pickup.
Breakfast is available but is NOT free/included and is really minimal in choice.
Rooms are small but the real issue is the thin walls. You will hear every cough, toilet flush, moan and conversation in the adjacent rooms at night. This is not an exaggeration. It’s that bad.
Shower is tiny.
Toilet seat was falling off. Safe didn’t close/open. Lots of stairs; difficult if you have luggage or mobility issues.
The hotel is a few blocks away from the beach. The vicinity area probably is nicer during summer season. In October, it felt blighted, empty and unkempt with nowhere to go in the evening.
We regretted booking this hotel and would not recommend it.
