The hotel is in the heart of Las Olas Blvd. The restaurant in the hotel was great for breakfast. It was too cold to use the pool but it looks wonderful. The lobby is a great place to hang out for happy hour and live piano music. The staff was excellent too!! Will definitely be back.

Clean room, spacious enough. The bars were good and had a lively atmosphere and decent happy hour. Room rate was expensive but it is in a great location on Las Olas Blvd. The pool area is good but we had poor weather so no one was using it.

Riverside is the perfect location for an overnight stay before boarding a cruise ship. The hotel staff is very friendly and helpful. Las Olas Boulevard offers a variety of restaurants. The Riverwalk is right across the street.The shuttle service provides a seamless arrival at Port Everglades. The Riverside Hotel is a short taxi ride from the airport. We've stayed there for our past 2 cruise vacations and plan to stay there again.
