Reviews for Hotel Rio Amazonas
Review 1:We were on the 8th and 9th floor, but it could be a little noisy during the weekends from the street noises.
Review 2:Central location to all the restaurants and attractions. Staff were very friendly and helpfully in setting up tours and sheeting up the transportation. Clean and comfortable rooms with good breakfast.
Review 3:Pictures of room, lobby, etc. in website, quite different to reality Very average breakfast Very bad internet service, and poor service from the staff in this regard. They were not able to solve a very simple connection problem on their end, even after multiple requests from my part.
Review 4:OK room, clean, well located
Review 5:First we had a room at the 10th floor that is newly build. But the windows are quite tin so you could hear the street noise quite well. The next day we got a room at the 8th floor which was better. But that's the price for staying close to plaza foch and bars, clubs and restaurants. I would stay there again because of the walking distance to plaza foch where we had dinner every night. The most noise was on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Other days weren't so bad. Walking the streets at night can be a little bit dodgy. If you don't mind a little walking during the day you can walk to all points of interest. We even walked to park Carolina although that is a little bit far compared too anything else. There are some nice walking routes on the city map. Only for the historical center you have to go by taxi which is $3 or $5. The staff is very nice and speaks English quite well. The breakfast is also very nice with a lot to choose from. The wifi is awesome. Good connection everywhere in the hotel. Would definitely stay here again on my next visit.
Review 6:The reception gave me wrongly a wake up call at 2 AM. Later this guest who had to get up at this time was very loud. When I told this story to the receptionist, she did not apologize, what I thought would have been the least she could have done.
Review 7:In general all was fine. Nothing special...
Review 8:I wore ear plugs at night to keep the noise out.
Review 9:The staff were all very nice and helpful. The quality of service was excellent and professional. Our room was clean and had a great view of the city and Cotopaxi. Breakfast was scrumptious with a mix of western and local food.
Review 10:You may not get what exactly you requested. My laundry missing for 3 days. Staffs not really able to communicate in English. More like this hotel catered for local only.
Review 11:View towards surrounding mountain is nice with big glass windows.
Review 12:Got a room on the front of the hotel that was very noisy with local club music. We were immediately moved to a quieter room. Excellent service. The hotel restaurant had excellent food and service.
Review 13:This hotel has everything you need for a business trip, free wifi, business center and a very helpfull staff. The people at the desk are super attentive to all you needs
Review 14:Staff was great! Room was comfy. Excellent location, walking distance to many restaurants and bars. Laundry facilities on the same block. Felt relatively safe. Daytime super safe, nightime we took extra precautions of crossing streets before possible sketchy encounters. Easy, quick and cheap access via cab to teleferico ($2-3) and historic center ($2-3). A couple of shopping malls a few minutes away. Room service. 24 hr restaurant. Great view from room 906...could see Cotopaxi.
Review 15:We liked everything.
Review 16:We liked the location, the staff, the internet service, and the meals. We were pleased that we could flush toilet paper down the toilet.
Review 17:unless you are on an upper floor (8+), expect to hear music from the clubs
Review 18:close to things if you would like to walk around, though make sure you are a in a group if in the evening
Review 19:very loud area, in bathroom i saw cockroaches, additionally very long time for waiting for check in (around one hour and we arrived late in the evening very tired), old furniture, really loud parties in second floor, unorganized check in
Review 20:comfortable bed, fast internet
Review 21:Arriving at night after 11 hour flight the view from our 10th floor room to the town, shining in the electric lights, was amazing. The restaurant on the first floor is pleasantly nationally decorated and gives you a selection of national food.
Review 22:They had no room for me despite it being booked and confirmed. I had to sleep in the lobby until 3.15 am until somehow they found me a room. No apology, no offer of drink etc no blanket. Said they would get me another hotel of lesser standard but had to find my own way there
Review 23:Proximity to old town
Review 24:Misleading information on location - 15 minutes from the airport (the reason we chose this hotel) but they didn't say that was from the old airport that is now closed - so we were 1 1/2 hrs away from the airport.
Review 25:Fabulous hotel, excellent comfort, terrific food (but pricey). Staff were good for the most part. Great location if you wanted to be downtown.
Review 26:Just a wonderful location in such a beautiful town. The room we had was beautiful and so large and the extra touches like rose petals on the bed, fresh roses in the rooms and a basket of fresh oranges was so thoughtful and nice. We even had a fire each evening in the room and when we called to request it they were there in minutes. The facilities are stunning and well maintained. We stayed only two nights but I wish we could have stayed for longer! It is a bit pricier than other locations but worth it in my opinion if you can splurge a little for an extra special treat.
Review 27:Poor call for taxis,had to wait while other taxis passed the hotel. Hotel staff not proficent in Ingles, if necessary,.Doorman have no idea what you tell them, regarding directions.Commuinication skills of total staff needs improvement, consideration of international travellers. Otherwise , the hotel is of soun d value. Breakfast if not incuded, is a poor choice @ $12.00.
Review 28:convienence to all necessary activities.
Review 29:The staff was very helpful at all times. Our view was spectacular (Tip: request a room on a high floor)

Review 53:Well located, easy walking distance to restaurants, shops, banks etc. Nice cafe in lobby. Efficient, helpful staff
Review 54:Very poor internet, and the cost is not fair.
Review 55:Ok I reserved our rooms on line, at the time of checking in, at the front dest, they couldn't find our reservation. They asked me how much I paid for two rooms, when I told them how much I paid, they made a face as if they said that's impossible. The stuff was rude and wanted us to pay more money for the rooms. I told them to cancel my reservation and then they said oh we found your reservation but you have to pay more money. Booking.com accepted my reservation with no problems when I reserved it. Why can't rio amazonas hotel honor the reservation? Anyway, we walked out of the rio amazonas hotel frustrated and started hunting for another hotel in the area dragging our bags. We found a better hotel with better customer service.
Review 56:Nothing!! Never had a chance to spent the night thanks to the rude customer service at the front dest!
Review 57:At reception it was a bit hap hazard, checking in which should be simple wasn't and asking for help to find a camera repair shop was extremely difficult. The location was not great as the music from the bars was extremely loud and you can still hear it even if you are on a high floor. Apparently the quiet night was a Sunday, but unfortunately for us we were there a Friday and Saturday night.
Review 58:The wifi was quite fast. But you needed to login to a proxy server EVERY TIME you needed connection. Even for a second without use it would disconnect. No Pool. The lift was not so safe. No alarm sound. No security getaway.
Review 59:Good locations. Near the Foch Plaza and a lot of restaurants. Good restaurant in the hotel. Affordable, with good food. 24 hours service.
Review 60:I did not like the fact that they do not provide an iron in the bedroom for the guest to do their own ironing. The internet connection was very very poor.
Review 61:I liked the location.
