Clean & quiet. Palm Sunday complicated matters with most restaurants closed in town. Kiosk operated by hotel adequate for meal but very basic.

6/10 Okay

Just OK

Good location but old hotel. Bathroom smells like sewer and the television was not in good working order. Was ok for a 1 night stay en route to Porto
Elena, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

The hotel room is much older than the posted pictures. Room was very hot and the AC was very weak, took 10hr to cool off the room enough to sleep. In the evening, ants covered the room's table. Poor night of sleep due to hot room and ants.

A great budget option for exploring the town. There is a beautiful pool and terrace overlooking the river. Good for walking to the sights; very quiet here.
Robert, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Beautiful little hotel shared with the Museu hotel. We had a side balcony overlooking the river, pool and terrace. Room was clean and beds were comfortable. Staff were lovely and helpful. The location was perfect for exploring the town. I would totally recommend this hotel.

Great small village. Hotel is ok but was bit disappointed with the size of pool. In the photo it looked bigger. However the river is at walking distance which offers some water activities to do and for a dip.

Stumbled upon this lovely hotel while travelling across the countryside … what a gem this is. The rooms are small but very comfortable. We had a fever view and it was wonderful. The staff are friendly and helpful. We will be back.

10/10 Excellent

Great Location. Great Value.

Wonderful location with view over river and at base of steps up to the town and castle. Balcony the size of a small apartment. Comfortable bed. Shame a fridge isn’t supplied as, even in April, the temperature is in the thirties. Lovely to buy food from the hotel snack bar and eat on balcony watching the house martins dive and glide!
Balcony as big as a basketball court!

A clean, comfortable convenient place.

I found the accommodation to be comfortable, clean and convenient. The add-on breakfast buffet was also a good value. My only complaint was that no one was there for me to check in for at least five or 10 minutes. Supposedly you could check in until 10 PM and I arrived at about 9:15 PM, other than that my three night stay, there was very good.
Ronald, 3-night trip

6/10 Okay

This hotel shares management and facilities (e.g. pool) with the Hotel Museu next door. Between the two is a bar area. We discovered that if you stay at the Museu you can put bar drinks on your bill, but if you are staying in the Beira Rio you have to pay at the bar. The pool and pool area were not crowded when we were there. Our room on the ground floor was adequate for a couple of nights. The view over the River Guadiana was good and the evening river trip (20euro pp) up and down the river was a nice excursion. The church/castle/archealogical dig at the top of the hill makes an excellent visit. Most restaurants are near the roundabout coming into Mertola so a little bit of a walk.

Whatever

We visited Mertola in late February, not prime tourist season but was still busy with tourists. Our overall impression, based on some of the local proprietors we encountered, those with us foreigners with limited Portuguese language skills should perhaps visit elsewhere. The hotel itself was very clean but basic (amazing water pressure in the shower though!). Big thanks shout out to the woman who runs the patio/bar snack bar at the Rio Biero and Hotel Museu. It was a Saturday night and it appeared most, if not all restaurants in the village were closed for dinner that night. She went out of her way to discreetly make us something to eat that evening!
