Guest Reviews

Alsu 8.0

I liked the location, views were great. The hotel is family orientated, there was a children's table for crafts. The hot tub is still under maintenance, so we thoroughly enjoyed the pool. Good choice of options for breakfast.

Katie 9.0

The hotel was lovely value for money. We arrived 40 mins before check in and our room was ready- with a free upgrade! The pool was a great addition and the location was superb- a short 15 min walk along the beach to the pier and town centre! Staff were absolutely incredible: bar staff, receptionists and housekeepers were extremely friendly, helpful and really made the difference.

Location is great Clean and friendly hotel

Eileen 9.0

We found the staff most helpful. On the night they were not serving meals they produced lovely sandwiches served with salad and crisps. As the hotel is a little bit away from food outlets and shops it is great that the hotel serves good breakfasts, lunches and food in the evening.

Karen 9.0

Quiet location . Bar meals are very good with good value specials. Facilities at the Riviera are excellent- in addition to the pool and gym there is a table tennis table, pool table and other games. The bar area is very spacious.

Lovely hotel with exceptional staff. We were made to feel super welcome. Wonderful check in experience with a room upgrade. Super comfy beds and pillows. Dinner in the restaurant was excellent and breakfast in the morning with a window table and white linen table cloths with fantastic food and service was also excellent. Such a lovely atmosphere created by the hotel staff who really care about their guests. Thank you so much for a memorable stay.
