Boutique hotel punches way above it’s weight

Awesome boutique hotel, great value, very nice well-sized and appointed rooms with new finishes, and wonderful breakfasts. Staff were very welcoming, service oriented, and gave excellent advice on restaurants and attractions in the town. Comments about no elevators unfounded, staff offered to carry bags up and down. Pics and comments don’t do the hotel justice, more of a 4+ star establishment, certainly not the 3 stars it markets itself as.

A nice cozy hotel. We enjoyed it. The staff were friendly and helpful, especially Deogo, when we needed the instruction for different destinations, he studied it and wrote down a detailed introduction for us. Saved us a lot of time and effort. We really appreciate it!

Highly recommend!

We loved this stay so much and are so happy we stopped here on our last night before the Lisbon airport! Setubal might be our favorite stop in Portugal. They provided a welcome drink local to the area and an area map, we arrived late and while we were checking in the front desk was helpful with restaurant recommendations that were still open and detailing it all out on the map for us. Location is great, the market and plenty of bars and restaurants are all a short walk. Room was larger than expected, super clean, and modern. The balcony was appreciated to get a view over the town. Since we arrived late we were able to park for free on the street in front of the hotel, but they had affordable parking options nearby as well. Breakfast was simple but had enough to get the morning started.

Great and convenient place to stay in Setubal. 40 mins by toll highway to Lisbon Airport! Located in the middle of the city and restaurants, shopping and sights are within walking distance. Very helpful staff! Room was spacious, modern and clean in a historical building. Breakfast was a good bonus. Recommend if you’re in the area or on your way back to Lisbon.

Our top choice when staying in Setubal.

Stayed in Setubal for the first 2 nights of our Portugal visit and Rio Art Hotel was one of 2 recommended to us by friends. The gentleman at the front desk was exceptionally helpful and accommodating, giving us great suggestions on things to visit, where to eat, and where to park for the best price. The included breakfast had a good variety of options. The location downtown was perfect for our needs.

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!
