Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Hotel Rio stands out for its exceptional location, just around the corner from the Duomo and with very easy access to transportation, including trams and the metro. Guests often appreciate the free breakfast with good coffee, and the convenience of having a small fridge in the room. The rooms at the back side are quieter as not on the tramway street. While some have noted that rooms can be small, the location and amenities make it a good choice for a city trip.
