Hotel Rio Athens

Very filthy. Restaurant/bar not open. Bad breakfast served in the room with no furniture. Staff cheat with prises for taxa and touirist bus. Your key lay at the front drak all day unattended.

Looking at the pictures on, Hotels.com told me to stay here! The interior of the hotel stunk like wet clothes sitting around for years!!! Dust everywhere, The furniture was covered up with blankets because they have not been changed in years. The room stunk like mildew, and my bed was two beds put together! The soap they give you was so small it was a size of a vitamin. The shower was so small water was going everywhere! They have not renovated anything. The furniture was from the 1970s. I was hot every night because there was no air-conditioning in the rooms. I was very disappointed! Read the reviews before you spend your money I was disgusted!!! I’ve never had worse breakfast in my life. The employees there were useless. I asked for extra towel at night and they said no wait till the morning!!! By the way, the towels were ripped and dirty from stains. The old man working the evening shifts has a mean dog that kept barking at customers! The man was rude, Disrespectful to guests And a very unpleasant experience! The lady in the morning (older lady Working the desk) She didn’t care about anything and was not helpful at all. There was a bar that has not been used in years and alcohol bottles half empty sitting there. The television was set up high on the wall it was so tiny It was very hard to see, and the volume was very low even on Max. The remote control didn’t work. The way to get air conditioning was to open the window! The elevator was super small and Had a horrible odor.

The property needs to be updated to the 21st century. I didn’t stay, I checked in and within 2 hours I was out. I wasted my money, the pictures are very deceiving.

Very old hotel with minimal maintenance. The toilet was leaking and the roof had a huge hole. No toiletries or extra supplies (such as coffee maker or cups) available at either the room or hotel. Very standard. The only positive thing would be the location, which is not too far from the main areas, and the staff were friendly.

This hotel needs to shut down and have it renovated. Everything is old and ugly. The staff service is also not good. The breakfast is terrible. The location of the hotel is very unsafe is called Omonia. This is the most hotel I hated and definitely not recommend it. I demand a refund.

The hotel pictures online are not accurate. The hotel needs a deep cleaning. Everything from the rooms, Lobby area , Outdated furniture. The rooms and the hallways leading to the rooms have a bad smell Like mildew. Even the furniture was covered up with blankets because of the Cleanliness. The old man that works at night who has a barking dog and Very angry. The breakfast in the morning was misleading! I wasn’t sure if it was orange juice or mouthwash. The bed was extremely uncomfortable. It almost felt like I was sleeping on the outside concrete. There was no air conditioning in the rooms. I had to open my windows to get air. They give a very little tiny bar soap That is as small as a fingernail. The shower is tiny. The elevator is outdated and I would advise you to use a stairs. The owner has a motorcycle in the hallway that smells. They will ask you for additional money upfront. Homeless Live in front of the hotel and always begging for money. The hotel is not located in a tourist area. The hotel has a bar area that has not been used since the 1980s. I was extremely disappointed. Even the older lady that works in the morning was always upset about everything. I hope this review finds you helpful.

4 éjszakát töltöttünk a Hotelben. A házigazdák nagyon segítőkészek voltak, bármikor fordulhattunk hozzájuk kérdésekkel. A tisztasággal és a légkondicionálással sem volt gond. A reggeli kevés fogást tartalmazott, de ezért az árért nem is lehet többet várni

Mega Standort aber was Sauberkeit angeht absolut schrecklich

Hotel sucio, las camas con mal olor y resortes salidos, aire acondicionado no funciona, parece el hotel del terror

Det er mange negative kommentarer om dette hotellet på nett ser jeg, men jeg hadde et utmerket opphold der. Kan godt hende jeg bruker det igjen. Nært metrostasjon som er positivt. Eneste negative med hotellet er at man ikke kan henge opp dusjen, og at kopper og fat til frokosten er dårlig vasket. Særlig det siste bør hotellet ta tak i.

Slecht onderhouden, maar schoon genoeg. Het is een kwartiertje lopen naar het centrum. Je hebt goede restaurants in de buurt dus je hoeft niet altijd naar het centrum. Hotel is duidelijk budjet dus we verwachtten niet veel maar een heel erg doorgezakte bed, Kapotte wc bril en een Douchekop die je niet kan ophangen. De badkamer is zo klein dat de deur in 2en is gezaagd met een scharnier ertussen zodat je het kon vouwen en nog kon de deur niet dicht. Kamer is ruim, geluidsdicht, verduisterende gordijnen, fijn balkon, goede airco. Ontbijt erg basic. Voor 2 dagen ok. En als je langer blijft heb je een bakker/broodjeszaken om de hoek en een OV opstapplaats waar je zo mee in het centrum bent.

This hotel is flat out disgusting. The Hotels.com reviews were pretty positive for a cheap hotel but in reality this is a horrible place to stay. The AC didnt work, there was no Wi-Fi, we couldnt even shower because water would come flooding out of the drain in the middle of the bathroom. The linens were soiled, the mattresses were stained and the walls were filthy. The worst of it all were the DIRTY FOOTPRINTS all inside the closet...It looked as though someone had been living in there in secret. Worst hotel i have ever been in. It's not at all worth the money that you save. Do yourself a favour and book anywhere else.

The picture do not look like the hotel and there is no AC

Staff is nice, just the room was not what i expected. Old school tv with one channel(doesn't matter much) I got the standard room(cheapest) by price. First of all the beds were not durable at all, very soft and the plak popped out from one of them. (Had 2 twin beds) there was no AC(they gave me the fan), had one power outlet, the shower i used twice in a day and had to use cold water because there wasn't any warm water(i had warm water the next day) by that time i have already booked another hotel.

The location is perfect for tourists wanting to see the major attractions of Athens. Metro a few hundred meters away. Good typical Greek breakfast. The bathroom was tiny, which is usual for major cities. ONLY complaint, the air conditioner stopped working our last day. And Athens was having a heat wave.

No internet on the third floor. I reported it but nothing was done and no explanation. I had to sit down in the lobby to access the internet

This hotel needs to shut down and have it renovated. Everything is old and ugly. The staff service is also not good. The breakfast is terrible. The location of the hotel is very unsafe is called Omonia. This is the most hotel I hated and definitely not recommend it. I demand a refund.

This room's need some upgrade.

Location is central. Shops nearby. Staff is friendly.

Worst hotel I ever stayed at. The staff is very rude. There is no functioning WiFi or air conditioning. In 30 degree heat, they provided one table fan for three persons. The breakfast was of appalling quality. There is no room service and the bedsheets or towels were not changed during our 3 day stay. The hotel also charged us for fees (local taxes) which were already on the Expedia payment receipt. When we asked for the money returned to us after our stay, they verbally abused us with racist slurs.

A hotel staff demanded we pay cash even though we prepaid.

just very nice staff and a lovely balcony .

They booked my room but they don’t have any room available

Ho passato una notte a Atene in transito. L'albergo è situato in modo ideale per questo. Reception sempre aperta e con un umano presente! A meno di un minuto dalla fermata del métro di Metaxourgeio sulla linea 2 rossa, ottimo se si hanno bagagli. A una fermata dalla stazione ferroviaria di Larissa. A due fermate dalla stazione métro di Attiki da dove partono gli autobus per arrivare alla stazione dei pullman KTEL extraurbani di Lioision che collegano Atene con molte destinazioni turistiche. Da Attiki si può cambiare per la stazione Victoria da dove partono i pullman KTEL per Capo Sounion. A quattro fermate dalla centrale piazza Syndagma dove partono i bus per l'aeroporto, che sempre da Syndagma raggiungibile anche in métro. Insomma se vi dovete spostare difficile trovare di meglio. La pulizia è buona, ma ci vorrebbe un po' più di attenzione: le tendine andrebbero lavate e sul balcone della stanza c'era un portacenere pieno di mozziconi. La mia stanza era carina, molto luminosa e sui toni caldi. Non ho usato l'aria condizionata perché in aprile non ce n'era bisogno, quindi non saprei dire. La hall è molto carina, ammobiliata con antichi tavolini in marmo da caffè e vecchi mobili: insomma lontana da impersonali arredamenti tutti uguali degli alberghi moderni. La gestione è probabilmente familiare e ai miei occhi è un grande merito. Problema: colazione solo dalle 8 in poi. Per me che prendevo un pullman alle 8.30 è stato impossibile farla.

Helt OK för en övernattning. Frukost ej godkänd.

Tout d'abord nous avons reçu unde chambre non nettoyée (photos). Dans la seconde, pas de climatisation. On nous a répondu que c'était un problème général dans tout l'hôtel... Le petit déjeuner, médiocre. Que des toats et pas d'appareil pour les griller. Café et thé sans goût. Deux bouts de fromage faisant la course avec une tranche de jambon... Les employés sont les rois du moindre efforts et lorsque je leur ai demandé de voir le responsable, ils m'ont répondu qu'il était à l'étranger et qu'il ne venait jamais à Athène...
