Staff was attentive, the downstairs bar had good food and ambience, the room was quaint, yet spacious, clean, mini-fridge, microwave and complimentary coffee were a nice addition. Loved the location and the fact that hotel was a boutique style. Would definitely stay again!

Rooms aren’t that sound proof so heard people at night getting home at 2:30 am. The rooms are fine but nothing special. It’s ok for a night but there are better options around.

We really enjoyed our stay at Hotel Rialto and plan on returning. Very well located 5-15 minute walk to lots of restaurants and coffee shops. Room was ver comfortable. The surprise was the bar/restaurant downstairs. Great drinks, food and service! So nice on those evenings when you just want a little something since they open late.
