Room was comfy enough with a little balcony overlooking the street, but the bathroom was very tired - old fixtures, repaired holes, shower curtain instead of cubicle, that kind of thing.. The Reception was very friendly, and a free drink at the bar was offered. No kettle in the room, but the minibar was well enough stocked. Breakfast was good... More

For muslims travelling to Karlsruhe, this is a good hotel to stay. It is near at least 2 kebab restaurants. If you travel by tram or walk to europaplatz which is a tram station away from Hotel Rio, there are more halal restaurants to choose from. The breakfast spread is reasonable but halal choice is limited. Laundry is usually ready... More

I stayed in this hotel for 11 nights. IMHO, this is not a 4 star hotel, but a 3 star. This hotel is very popular among German business travellers and is pretty busy during the workdays.

When driving to the hotel I thought, based on the area I went through: "OK, this has to be really good to justify its high ranking in the TripAdvisor order of merit for Karlsruhe". The Rio turned out to be a modern hotel in which I had a really nice room with lightning fast internet (over 20 Mb/s!). It's a... More
