Beautiful hotel. Several nice restaurants. Safe area with plenty of restaurants to walk to. Hotel staff was very courteous. Will stay there again. It was convenient to cruise port and provided a shuttle to transport us.

The location is excellent, and we enjoyed walking out to Las Olas Blvd and along the New River, watching some boats go by. The room was clean, charming and well-maintained, considering it is in a 1936 building. The shower worked well, too. My only complaint is that we were placed in a connection room, and we could hear all the noises from the next room, including the exact words of the conversations. It would be nice if the hotel could work on some soundproofing. The bell captain was helpful and self-parking was easy.

Our pre cruise stay was awesome. You can walk to everything. And the cruise port is not very far. Hotel does offer a shuttle for 12 a person. View from balcony was great. We will definitely stay again

Loved our stay at the Riverside. Canal-side pool with the bar and restaurant was lovely. Floated in 500sq ft hotel room for 1-night. Would definitely stay again. Took the water taxi from the hotel all around the city (round trip water taxi is 3 hours, has a bathroom and sells drinks). Got off water taxi at stop 6 at far end of Las Olas Boulevard to ride golf cart taxi back to hotel. Easy place to stay with kids and family (but bring your own water!). Couldn’t find a bottle of water to by anywhere nearby!

Beautiful Property, Amazing access to everything that the historic Las Olas Blvd has to offer but when you are inside, it feels that you are cut out from everything and feels quaint and cosy. The Dining options are incredible. Definitely try their restaurant, BoatHouse. Recommend Dinner reservations by the inland water front to get some amazing yacht views.
