What a week at Hotel Rio Park costs
Google Hotels asking price for each week of the next year. Cheapest month: November. Dearest: March.
Average per night, by month (2 adults)
Google Hotels asking prices, checked 19 Oct 2026: the lowest public rate per night, for 2 adults or 2 adults + 2 children (7 and 10). A week = 7 nights from Saturday. Town figures compare each hotel with itself across the year, then take the middle hotel, so winter closures do not skew them. School holidays: council-maintained schools (England: Kent and Birmingham; Scotland: Glasgow; Wales: Welsh Government). Package deals with flights price differently.
Reviews summary
What guests say
We read the latest 200 Google reviews, posted between 6 Apr and 14 Oct 2026. 95 gave five stars and 42 gave one or two. Food (78 reviews, average 3.6), rooms (72, 3.2) and staff (71, 3.5) come up most, and all three are mixed. Cleanliness (45 reviews, 3.7), entertainment (29, 3.7) and location (36, 3.6) score best. The weak spots are the lifts (37 reviews, 2.9), value (10, 2.7), drinks (25, 3.1) and the pool (44, 3.3); some say the pool closes too early. Our last-30 average is 3.7, against 4.2 all-time.
We count and summarise; we don't copy reviews. Averages are the star ratings of the reviews that mention each thing.

Can you get a sunbed?
- Large pool, listed among MedPlaya's pools with games
