Stayed at this hotel the night before a business meeting. It happened to be my birthday and was looking forward to spending an evening on Las Olas. Upon check-in, we headed to our room and noted an incredibly small elevator. The hallway was stuffy and humid. Our room was not, thank goodness. As we always do, we set the thermostat... More

We stayed at the Riverside Hotel for two nights pre-cruise. We stayed in a corner tower room and enjoyed relaxing on the balcony in the evening. The room was very comfortable and clean. The location on the river is wonderful with lots of areas to walk and enjoy the scenery without having to drive. It is also in close proximity... More

Looking for a nice hotel w/"quiet reputation," my husband found this online. Only one he found withOUT bad reviews regarding noise! Employees in all positions there were very helpful and cheerful. We ate at the restaurant, Indigo, 3 times in 3 days! Water taxi ramp very close to hotel. Riverside Hotel sits amidst good shops, galleries & restaurants. We wished... More

Pretty much the only three things going fr this place. Don't pay more than $60 because they nickel and dime you the moment you check in. Parking is $17 or $23 for valet. A nice room that doesn't smell requires a $20/day upgrade. More

I contacted the hotel via email several days prior to arrival to inquire about an upgrade to a room with a balcony. The front desk kept in touch with updates that a balcony room was not yet available. Upon check... More

The hotel is very centrally located and has some nice Ft. Lauderdale charm. I was not able to stay in the tower, so my room was located in the older part of the hotel. The room was on the second floor and did not have any view. I was able to book the hotel through priceline and was happy with... More

We stayed at the hotel before a cruise. Wonderful service, comfy beds and nice linens. Bathrooms were small but sufficient. Onsite gym was a nice touch, however, very small and multiple people trying to utilize the facility. Elavators were very small but that added to the charm of the hotel. The hallway of old pictures brings you back to years... More
