My favourite hotel in Setùbal

Review of Rio Art Hotel
5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 4 weeks ago
Great little boutique hotel on the Avenida. Close to the restaurants and bars of Setubal. Easy parking outside and very close to the ferry.
Very well run. Staff are polite, efficient and nothing is ever too much trouble.
Have stayed here before and is my number one choice for Setubal.

set in a good location for exploring what setubal has to offer,you will be met by friendly and helpful staff that are not only willing to help and advise,you also get a complimentary drink and map of setubal which turned out to be helpful.
there is no lift but staff are more than willing to help if you want.
my room was on a corner and large,bright,had high ceilings and designed very tastefully and had a t.v,air-con,mini fridge,free safety deposit box,bottled water,coffee machine and i got a free bottle of wine,throw in good storage space and a modern bathroom with a great shower and this hotel has a lot going for it and one i wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

Room tip: although there's life in the old dog yet,if you struggle with luggage just ask a member of staff(no lift)

Great location, near the ferry to Troia and into town. There are plenty of restaurants and a Pingo Doce for groceries. Staff are really nice and helpful. The room was a bit tight just check the web site for different room options. Lovely stay.

Our second visit to this lovely boutique hotel. Charming rooms with the expected amenities, comfortable beds, well located, but what is most notable is an absolutely AMAZING staff full of advice and recommendations, always willing to help.

Room tip: Setubal isn’t a big tourist destination which we liked, but there is plenty to keep you busy for a day or so and the desk will help.

The staff at Rio Art are so welcoming, friendly and helpful, especially Ana, Deogo, Laura and Andrea, to name a few. The location is excellent for exploring the area, and the rooms very comfortable. No question was too challenging - e.g., where could I post cards - two different options given, both easily found; a dinner reservation made; suggestions on areas to visit. Even though there is no elevator, mobility problems were easily overcome. Parking at a reasonable cost is nearby. We look forward to a return visit and more time in lovely Setubal.
