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!

Great place, good location. The AC was broken in our room on the first night and it was way to hot. The staff provided us with fans and luckily changed our room for our second night. The area directly outside is very loud in the early morning.

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!

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

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.

10/10 Exceptional

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!
