We loved everything about this hotel from the friendly greetings at the front desk and the lovely rooms overlooking the tree lined promenade to the delicious breakfasts each morning. This hotel is perfectly located to walk to the charming center of town, along the harbor and beaches and to catch the ferry to the white sand beaches of Tróia. All staff from the cleaners to the front desk were very friendly and did and excellent job of welcoming us! Anna at the front desk is a Setubal treasure. With her warm personality, she shared a wealth of knowledge and great suggestions about Setubal, her home town, and the local area. We would never have known to visit the former military 7ª Bataria de costa with its spectacular views of Setubal and the Tróia Peninsula. She also gave us great recommendations of things to do and see in other cities in Portugal. We loved our stay here and will definitely be back!

We had an excellent stay here a few years ago so didn’t hesitate to book the Rio Art Hotel on our next stay. We were traveling for my birthday and they went out of their way to make me feel special. This was especially heartwarming as our luggage was missing and we were having to deal with getting the necessities. The front desk is always providing a warm greeting, useful recommendations, and asking if there is anything they can do to make the stay even better. The rooms are larger than most ‘European’ rooms, very clean, plenty of towels, and has Portuguese charm. We look forward to our next visit.

What a beautiful hotel in the middle of Setubal. The staff were wonderful extra helpful. Anna was better than a guided tour of the area. Great sights and wonderful restaurants . It would not have been the same without her advice. Hopefully we will be back soon.

The breakfasts were fabulous. Fresh bread and fruit, eggs, bacon, pastries, yogurt, tea and coffee all perfect.

Cozy and quiet hotel with clean rooms and tasteful décor. Breakfast selection was great. The staff was very helpful and friendly. There's no elevator but the other positives more than make up for it. Would not hesitate to choose it again.

10.0 / 10.0
This hotel is perfectly located in the heart of the city, within easy walking distance to some of the more popular attractions, restaurants, shops, and the ocean! The staff are among the most courteous, helpful, and friendliest we've ever encountered. Special thanks to Sebastian, Ana, and Patricia for looking after us and offering their respective expertise and suggestions, and who made us feel part of their family! The premise is very quaint and comfortable, the room is more than adequate for two people and includes the basic amenities, bar-fridge, safe, TV, a typical "continental" breakfast, and a stocked coffee machine in the room!
Although listed as a 3-Star, the service received and the condition of the recently refreshed interiors, left us feeling it is definitely worthy of a higher rating . . .
If you're planning a visit to Setubal, the Rio Art Hotel is a must consideration for your stay.

We stayed two nights at this very nice hotel. We had a spacious and nice premium corner room. Location is perfect in the city, with only a couple of minutes by foot to the shopping streets and the food hall. Everyone working in the hotel is very nice and helpful, could not take care of the clients in a better way. Parking is easy, it´s possible to park just outside the hotel. However there you can pay for up to only 2 hrs during the day. A few blocks away there is a long term parking, where you park 24 hrs for only 3 Euro, very easy. Breakfast is ok, nothing special, but you find everything you need. We would definitely stay here again.

The staff is friendly and helpful. Location is central to shopping and close to the boardwalk by the ocean. One suggestion: please install a couple of hooks in the bathroom to hang up the bathrobe and towel. I enjoyed this quiet little town, Setubal, which I discovered for the first time. Thank you Rio Art staff for making my stay so enjoyable.

Rio Art Hotel is an outstanding hotel. The staff goes well beyond 5 star service. So attentive to every detail .I am gluten free and they had my gluten free breakfast ready when I arrived.
The decor, cleanliness and location were perfect. Can’t wait to go back next year.

About as friendly and helpful as you can expect the hotel stuff to be. A top tier breakfast. Excellent location in a very lovely, interesting town
3.0 / 10.0
This place did not disappoint. From check in, with a lovely welcome drink and a very knowledgeable staffer, to check out. Our room was larger than expected and it was cooler than expected so the extra blanket was a nice touch. The morning breakfast had a nice variety of offerings and coffee could be consumed at breakfast or with an in room machine. The front staff were always welcoming and suggested several places to eat and visit that did not miss. The location is great - provides the ability to walk along the water, easily visit the market or historical area, or walk up to Bonfim Park.

This was a beautiful hotel newly renovated in a century-old building. Lovely breakfast included. My only downfall was no elevator to ease the load of carrying luggage up two floors of stairs.

Very chic artsy hotel. Comfortable with friendly staff. Clean and a great breakfast buffet to start your day. Walking around the narrow streets was also a very nice experience.
I’d recommend this hotel and would return if I travel this way again.

Can’t say enough about this hotel. It’s a gem.
We arrived late and planned to leave
Setubal early the next morning. The staff was so welcoming, gave us a glass of a local wine, and told us about the town. We got up early and instead of leaving, we explored the town. The breakfast was great w hot and cold dishes. I’m planning on returning to the Rio Art hotel and seeing more of the area.

The staff was attentive, and always helpful. The room was comfortable, and the art was an added bonus. The common areas were always clean and well kept. I stayed in another hotel in the same area and the Rio was better in all areas, cleanliness, service, value, and much quieter.

This place was amazing. It's a 3 start but it should be 4+ start hotel. Clean, excellent service, breakfast was the best i have had in Portugal. Close to the center. To be honest, the hotel was better than what I am paid for. Best place to be in the town. Will come again. Thank you

We like everything about this hotel, and the service was exceptional. The location is great for exploring the surroundings and ferry access. There was a wine bottle on arrival and since the staff knew it was my birthday they brought a whole cake and sparkling wine. Everywhere in the hotel was extremely clean, breakfast more than adequate. We highly recommend.
