Would have given 10, but for the parking issues. Rooms and decoration great, real Brazilian feal. Kitchenette great and ensuite with toiletries provided. Staff very friendly,encouraging you to register via their computer system. Great apartment for the dogs with little balcony.

Car parking was disappointing, underground carpark too low for land rover with roof tent. But they had a separate outdoor secure area which would have been great. But they said fully booked even though I made enquiries via email. Worst still at least 6 spaces we're free overnight, we parked on street, not ideal

Big and clean room, bed was really comfortable, equipment was good, towels were clean and not too hard. Cutlery was also already there.

I did not like like one special receptionist. She was talking in a very rude way like she doesn’t want to work there and was not really friendly. She was chewing her gum very loudly all the time when she was talking to customers, almost spouted out here gum to us and had a rude attitude. She wanted to talk in englisch because it was more comfortable for her although we were German customers. That is not what I am expecting from a good reception service. I was feeling very unwell while checking in.

Lovely relaxed setup, great room, like a studio flat, with everything you need. Particularly liked the Bluetooth bedside table/charger/speaker, the shower was fantastic and the duvets and bedlinen were perfect. Very clean and the Brazilian theme was cheerful and different. Good base for visiting the Porsche factory and museum.

I paid, via Booking.com for breakfast for 2 nights, but the hotel manager said I hadn't so was charged an extra €90 for 2 day's breakfast and parking - he said booking.com couldn't make that charge but I definitely paid the higher rate including breakfast. So if booking choose the lower rate - I didn't feel like arguing as it was a Christmas gift but it felt rather shoddy and obviously happens alot.

Very friendly staff! Parking at the hotel and even 4 chargers for electric cars, perfect! Spacious rooms and a superb bathroom. The rooms are clean and equiped with nice features such as smart TV, Free ( and fast) WiFi, bluetooth speakers, phone chargers ets. Great breakfast buffet with fresh juices and great coffee. The decoration of the hotel is in Brazilian style, really nice. The rooms are equiped with a small kitchen so you can prepare your own meals in case of a longer stay. The hotel is located in a quite area which comes with cons and pro's.

Due to the quiet location in Zuffenhausen only a limited selection of restaurants on walking distance, Ofcourse this is something the hotel can't help however this could be something to concider booking this hotel. However clean and spacious the covered parking is a bit pricey at euro 18.00 per day.

We stayed here on a recent visit to Stuttgart. Within walking distance of the Porsche Museum the hotel is really welcoming and with a Brazilian theme is a cool place to be. The room was excellent with a lot of nice features like Bluetooth speakers and kitchenette. Secure parking facilities were good. The bar served great caipirinhas and finger food. The only negative was the area is limited for places to eat, it could do with having a restaurant on site. Saying that, I would still happily visit them again

I stayed for a short period only, but I was surprised by the authenticity and uniqueness of this hotel. I liked the rainforest vibe, I liked the location being a bit outside of Stuttgart. The price if absolutely fine. Great food, clean rooms, delicious drinks at the bar. Also, I liked the people working at the hotel, very kind, very helpful always in a good mood and smiling. I've heard another Rioca location will open in Frankfurt soon. Looking forward to accommodate my family there during their visits.

The room was quite spacious, with kitchenette, amazing shower. Receptionist Giuseppe and Antonino were very helpful. Breakfast was also very good. Generally the concept of the hotel is quite cool.

The location of the gym is very unfortunate. The gym apparently is poorly ventilated and the door is kept open most of the time.. Causing an "unfresh" odour to the area just in front of the elevator. Ruins your experience every time you enter/leave. Also a charge 15€ per dog per night (we stayed for 2 nights with miniature 2 HAIRLESS dogs) is quite a lot since you get nothing in return (many hotels offer dog bowls, beds, snack or poop bags at least). I think that this should be a flat rate, or charge one dog fee per night when dogs are small.

Nice stylishly designed room, I loved the forest design in the bathroom and the hanging chair, plus they have two pillows on bed (one higher one lower so everyone can choose their preferred one)! Quiet place, i enjoyed good sleep. 1 minute walk to metro stop.

There was a long corridor on the first floor with two heavy doors which i had to push really hard to open them - I am a slim lady but rarely have problem to open a door:) Plus there was a strange smell on the corridor, I suggest to open some window to let some air in. Last night there wasnt hot water just slightly warm ( wasnt such a big issue)

Very stylish and functional room interior, very clean and cosy, comfy bed. Loved the kitchenette - equipped with the plate/cutlery set it was exactly what we needed to prepare our late evening fruit salad bowl. 🙂 The staff is extremely friendly and helpful! Location is great - just a short walk away from the Porsche museum, and only a few meters from a Ubahn station. At the same time it's a very quiet and green neighbourhood with beautiful "gingerbread" houses just across the street.

It would be great to add a couple of hooks in the bathroom. The rest was perfect 👌

With a bunch of similarly priced accommodations in the surrounding area, Rioca stands out. It is fresh & modern, and decorated with more pizzazz and fun than most hotels, which is no surprise with it`s Brazilian theme. Staff were always friendly and attentive. The bar/lounge/breakfast area is nicely done and the breakfast offered a nice variety of good stuff! There is a roof top area with seating if you want an outdoor vibe. The room is comfortable and very well equipped, with good seating, a proper table, tv, a decent bluetooth speaker, fridge plus kitchenette should you need one. Covered parking (at a cost) and less than a kilometre to the Porsche Museum, and the Los Locos Argentinian Steakhouse (if you want to keep the South American theme) and Salzwiesenstrasse train station just a couple of minutes walk away, you`re pretty well placed.

I have nothing to complain about in general, does what is says on the box, plus ambience.
