How can I get cheap hotels in Rio?

Best tips to find a cheap hotel in Rio

  1. If you're looking to travel to Rio on a budget, you'll be happy to know that you can find hotels for as low as $66. Of course, that price is affected by amenities, star rating, and even the time of year you visit. At most, hotel prices can be as high as $162. Staying a short amount of time in Rio is an effective way to reduce hotel costs.
  2. When you cut your vacation down to just a few days, you don't have to worry as much about hotel prices since you don't have that many nights to stay. For budget hotels in Rio, 3 to 4 days should be all the nights you need. That's generally enough to enjoy the city's top attractions, though there's certainly enough to do to warrant a week-long trip.
  3. When booking cheap hotel rooms in Rio, it's typically best to book about 3 weeks in advance. Book further in advance than that and you could be paying too much for your room, as hotels will often overestimate future demand. However, if you wait too long, you might find that the hotel has been completely booked.
  4. When you utilize search filters on Expedia, you'll be able to narrow down your results in a flash. These search filters cover a wide variety of factors you may be interested in when it comes to finding a cheap hotel in Rio, including amenities such as Free Breakfast, 2-star rating, or proximity to local attractions. You can even set filters for price limits to ensure that all the displayed results are within your budget.

Cambria Hotel Madison East

Cambria Hotel Madison East

8/10 Good
"We had some little inconveniences, nothing major, but that is why I gave a rating of good as opposed to Excellent. One of the television clickers needs new batteries, our toilet got clogged, our bathroom water never got cold (for brushing our teeth, or simply drinking a glass of water). We liked the two separate rooms. But the bathroom floor and shower caddies of shampoo, etc. needed to be cleaned better. It is always rather unsavory to find hair on the bathroom floor or in the shower. I needed to wipe something off of the main living area floor, and it appeared to not be mopped in awhile. You have to pay $10.00 for breakfast (at least on Sundays), so we were rather disappointed. Similarly, the price I was quoted (through Hotels.com) was not what we were charged. I'm thinking it was because there was a Badger home football game, and the cost was like $270 per night which was much more than was budgeted. I never saw a caveat printed that suggested that certain weekends when there were home football games would cost quite a bit more. I'm not sure what can be done, but please check the price guarantee on game weekends."

"The rooms are small but comfortable, and the bed and pillows are very comfortable! Location is great, front-desk staff are very friendly and helpful. The exercise gym is spacious and well-designed, looking onto a small patio. This is my second stay at this hotel and I would book it again when returning to downtown Madison."

Frequently asked questions

How much does a budget hotel in Rio cost?
Budget hotel prices in Rio vary, but you can find a great deal from $66 on Expedia. To find the cheapest budget hotels, be flexible with your dates—off-peak and mid-week stays are typically cheaper.

When is the most affordable time to visit Rio?
The most affordable time to visit Rio, Wisconsin, is typically during its off-peak seasons, specifically late fall and winter (November to February), excluding the holiday periods. During these months, demand for accommodations and local activities decreases, leading to lower prices.For solo travellers, visiting during these quieter times can mean better deals on lodging, from guesthouses to small inns. You'll also find fewer crowds at local attractions, allowing for a more relaxed experience. While some outdoor activities might be limited by the colder weather, the area offers opportunities for cozy indoor pursuits and appreciation of the serene winter landscape.Another good option for budget-conscious travellers is the shoulder season in early spring (March to April). As the weather begins to warm, but before the main tourist influx of summer, you can still find reasonable prices and enjoy the blossoming natural beauty of the region.
Is it cheaper to book a Rio hotel and flight package?
Booking a hotel and flight package on Expedia can be cheaper than booking flights and hotels separately.

With access to over 300,000 hotels worldwide, Expedia makes it easy to build the perfect vacation package.
Can I cancel my budget hotel reservation on Expedia?
Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline. This is often within 24-48 hours of your scheduled arrival. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use Expedia's "Fully refundable property" filter during your search to find the right budget hotel in Rio for you.
