I loved the location! The property is run down !!! My “room” was a closet. My “bed” was more like cot and not even twin size. The toilet is located within inches of the sink. If you are average sign person - you may not be able to sit on the toilet. The free breakfast … skip it ! Wi-Fi worked in the lobby only. “ supposedly , they are upgrading the WiFi. The staff was helpful. I wouldn’t recommend this “hotel”. It’s more like a run down rooming house.

The property is conveniently located by the Duomo and M1 metro station, which is one of the main reasons I chose it for my one night stay. The room was nice and breakfast was pretty good. The only downside was that some of the other guests got a little noisy in the middle of the night. Other than that, I’d stay here again.

The best thing about Hotel Rio is it’s location. You walk out the front entrance, turn left, go about 60-70 meters and your at the Duomo square and the entrance to the metro station.

Viikonloppu Milanossa

Hotellin sijainti on erinomainen. Hotellin alakerta oli remontissa, minkä takia aamupala tarjottiin kadun toisella puolella olevassa kahvilassa, mikä oli tosin mukava paikka. Huone soveltui kaupunkilomalle tyypilliseen yöpymiseen.

Hotel Rio för den som vill bo mitt i.

Svårt att komma närmare allt. Bra hotell för den inte allt för kräsne. De renoverade matsalen så frukost åts på andra sidan gatan. Bra mat och god dryck. Nu har vi upplevt Milano. Behöver inte se det igen.

Super Preis - Leistungsverhältnis

Wir waren bereits zum 3.mal in diesem Hotel. Die Lage direkt beim Domplatz ist fantastisch. Die Hotelleitung und das Personal sind überaus freundlich. Das Frühstück ist gut und reichlich, die Zimmer sind gemütlich, die Bäder sind extrem groß( jedenfalls in den 3 Zimmern, die wir bewohnt haben). Der Strassenlärm ist nur bedingt störend, Man fühlt sich dort irgendwie "Zuhause"

Great location.

Can't fault the location and the room was comfortable and clean. No problems with it at all. The very small breakfast room meant waiting on a table 2 of the 3 mornings we stayed there, however, the continental breakfast was fine and the morning staff pleasant. My only problem really was with the afternoon receptionist when we checked in - and each time she was on duty. No pleasantries, no talk at all in fact, and came across as downright rude. I speak bare Italian and she spoke bare English but enough to tell me where a laundry was. When we checked out she was again on duty and proceded to carry on a private phone conversation the whole time. The bill was pushed across the counter, I produced the money, she gave me my change and not one word was said, nor did she look at me. No good-bye, have a nice day, ciao or arrivederci. My rating would have higher if not for her presence.

A modest hotel, room very small. Good bathroom. Very clean. Quiet.

A good experience overall. The huge plus is the location - a minute away from the Piazza Duomo and many tram routes. Easy to walk to a nearby rail station. I explored the canal district - tram No 2 very near the hotel. Good value.
