The hotel was in a wonderful location! Wonderful. But it was extremely old. The elevator was scary. We got a false Fire alarm at 4:30am in the morning. With no direction. No lights in the room. Only motion lights which is a pain when u need to do something and u can’t unless you keep moving toward the lights. We had to have maintenance come in and remove the motion lights.

I loved everything about the property. I was a bit disappointed with conflicting information giving by the person who checked our luggage since we were early for check in. She told us that the beach was a 10 to 15 mins walk. Thankfully, one of the front desk staff was nice enough to provide us the ride circuit information

Always a pleasure...
Always a pleasure staying at The Riverside Hotel. We requested a balcony and we got a very Cool one one the northwest corner on the 10th floor. We love drinking our morning coffee watching are the people and boats going on their way to wherever. We had one minor difficulty which was taken care of very quickly - we couldn't lower one of the window blinds! We also were fortunate enough to see the Los Olas Art Festival Part one and two this year. We are making plans to visit next year.

I really like the look and feel of this hotel. The location to the airport and cruise port is good. About a 25 dollar uber ride from the airport and to port everglades. If we cruise out of port everglades again I wont book anywhere else. Restaurant options are plenty and right outside the hotel doors.

Beautiful old classic hotel with updated room. Just in the heart of Los Olas. The updated rooms are clean and trendy, not at all elegant. They should have kept the classic vibe. With that said it’s Walkable to cafes, restaurants, and grocery. We loved the riverside pool and the boathouse was great for Saturday afternoon football . The balcony option made our stay extra enjoyable. Would definitely go back again.
