What guests say
8.7 / 10 · Very good on Booking.com, from 1,047 guest reviews
The Riverside Hotel earns consistently strong praise for its prime waterfront location, warm and attentive staff, and clean, comfortable rooms at fair prices. The main frustrations during this review period centred on simultaneous maintenance issues — a pool closure and two elevators out of service at once — along with a minor complaint about paid parking and an unanswered WiFi request. These appear to be temporary operational hiccups rather than systemic issues, and the overwhelmingly positive sentiment suggests most guests leave satisfied and willing to return.
