We stayed at Hotel Rio for a couple of nights, and it was exactly what we were looking for. The Hotel is in the perfect location- a couple blocks from the ocean, right in the old part of Puerto Vallarta, and near lots of shops, restaurants, and night life. We walked everywhere right from the hotel. Our room had a... more

This resort was was fun filled with a beautiful resort and staff. The food was very good, no one got sick. The weather was priceless, mid 80's. The drinks were not top shelf so you had to have them pour a little extra. The shows were great. The staff was so friendly. We travel with young children and they had... more

We chose the Hotel Rio based on the reviews and we were not disappointed. The accomodations were no-frills, but there were no problems. Our room faced the main street but was very quiet, due to the sound-proof windows. There was plenty of hot water. The a/c worked great. The room was kept clean and tidy every day. The staff were... more

I chose this hotel due to the reviews and the hotel has a great location. The restaurant onsite is also very good with great prices. This is NOT a hotel for anyone with a disability and cannot climb stairs as I had almost 40 to get to my room. But then again almost all of Puerta Vallarta is the same.... more

Everybody knows the big name places, but try 'Titionos' on Libertad for some great seafood. Also 'Chuyins' just down Libertad a few doors for great breakfasts. One of the highlights of... more

Three of us overnighted here as we had flights the following day and wanted to be able to experience Puerto Vallarta after spending time outside the city. The hotel is no frills but was very clean, the staff was wonderful, and they are located in the heart of the city. We had an average room on the 1st floor but... more

As our flight dates were changed, we needed to book one night in PV before we headed to our all-inclusive. Based on reviews from Trip Advisor, I booked at the Hotel Rio. I wanted to stay in the heart of town (and the Rio really is) for a low cost (it was approx. $66/night Cdn). We liked it when we... more

My sister and I just returned from Puerto Vallarta and stay for 6 days at Hotel Rio in the heart of downtown. It is a very clean hotel with a wonderful staff. They also have a great restaurant, their chicken enchiladas were heavenly. People have written before complaining about the noise on the street, the hotel has installed double-pane windows... more
