We booked this hotel through priceline so we were a little skeptical about what we would end up with. Needless to say we were very pleased. To echo some reviews below, yes it is challenging to find, especiallly where its listed on E Las Olas Blvd but parking there is near impossible so you need to go around the back... More

Overall, I was pleased with the Riverside, but with caveats. It is difficult to locate with GPS and I had to circle the block several times to locate the parking lot and entrance. I finally had to park at an office lot and call the front desk for directions. The check-in staff are extremely helpful and friendly. My biggest complaint... More

In February 2013 I stayed at the Riverside Hotel before a cruise and had a terrific time. This hotel has the best location in the city away from the beach. You can walk everywhere, or public transportation is easily accessible (bus, water taxi, or shuttle to Sawgrass Mills mall). There is a CVS grocery and Starbucks within walking distance. Many...

The Riverside, centrally located on beautiful Los Olas Boulevard and just a few miles from the airport (and immediately adjacent to the oh-so-fun Ft. Lauderdale water taxis - $20 for all-day), is both a classic mid-thirties elegant hotel and an almost-brand-new high-rise addition that retains the Hotel's charm and historic feel. Los Olas Boulevard ("The Waves") leads straight to Ft.... More

2nd mid week stay this week. Love the tower rooms. They are very large. Bed is super comfy with very soft and nice smelling all white linens. Firm large pillows, great a/c, mostly very quiet. Big bathroom, closet, desk, dresser. I really like staying here. They have great outdoor dining which is so nice in the mornings. The wait staff... More

This quaint hotel brings the history to Ft Lauderdale. Located on Las Olas which is a wonderful street to hang out to shop and eat. The hotel is very quiet and well maintained. We spent two weeks here and we are looking forward to returning in the near future.

Let me start with the good. Service was outstanding everyone from check-in (they upgraded us at no charge) to the manager that we dealt with when there was an obnoxiously loud group of people partying after midnight. The hotel was not flawless, the rooms for example could use a little updating (although they were in good condition, just a bit... More

I recently stayed at the Riverside for my first time and loved it! We were there for a special event, The Color Run, and the hotel offered a special discount for those participating in the event. We had a FABULOUS room. From other reviews I learned there is an older section and a newer section, the towers. When making my... More

Yes, The Rooms Could Be Nicer, the Location On las Olas IS Great. Short Taxi Or WateR Taxi To The Beach.v Great Bar Across The Street.. Will Return Very Relaxing. I Believe In Brevity, Not Sure Why This Must Be 200 Characters.
