Hotel Rio Milan (Milan, Italy)

The location of this hotel is great for those who want a dose of Milan culture. All the best of the city is just a few steps away, including the city's best galleries, like Galleri Vittori Emanuelle. Another local popular attraction located nearby is Castello Sforzesco.

The friendly reception is a great feature of this hotel. The concierge is a friendly and familiar face who makes an effort to remember each guest. He can also be counted on for the best tips on where to eat and what to do, all located near the premises.

The hotel, and rooms, are small. However, all the basic features of a comfortable stay are included. While the rooms are tiny, that small annoyance can be overlooked when compared with the affordable rate and great location.

The small and basic features might make you question the exact designation of this stay. There are no amenities at the hotel and there is even a charge for Wi-Fi.

While the convenience to local transportation and tramcars is great when you want to travel, that closeness isn't so great when you want to sleep. The noise can be heard in the room and does affect sleeping. Also, ask for a room away from the front street or you'll also have that noise to deal with.

This hotel can boast a lot of thinning and narrowness. The rooms, bathrooms, and showers all have this condition. Plus, the few features at the continental breakfast will make guests not have to question trimming down. It's light fare which might pose a problem for those who need energy for heavy days.
