It’s an older property but well maintained. The bed was comfortable and has a nice pool. We had a view of the ocean right down the street from our balcony and a restaurant on site. It’s located a block off the malacon, so a perfect location and close to some great shopping. Only a few blocks away from the Señora de Guadalupe church. The front staff were very friendly and helpful.

Hotel Rio Malecon is a great hotel! Friendly staff and an excellent restaurant, Coexist Bistro (Italian/Mexican). The property itself is a little dated but the rooms are very clean, the beds are comfy and the air conditioning works great! There is a unique pool and lounge area in the courtyard too! You can't beat the location right on the malecon with tons to do and see all within walking distance. See you soon!

The staff was very friendly, check in and out was easy and very informative. It was nice to get my laundry done. Any place I wanted to go to was in walking distance. The only things I didn't is that the restaurant wasn't open on Monday and there wasn't access to a ice machine after it closed, also the piol wasn't open 24 hours.
