“Lovely hotel,”

Had a lovely stay at the Riviera, everything good except for the young DJ playing loud Ibiza vibes music in the afternoon really not suitable for the clientele staying at the hotel, also need to replace the cheap plastic coat hangers, not a good look in the premium rooms.Enjoyed visiting the VIP lounge for freedrinks which guests have when booking premium rooms .

“Some small improvements would make this hotel the best”

Whilst we have stayed at this hotel many times this was our first visit since the refurbishment. The lower floors, restaurants, lounge and reception have been upgraded. One downside is that you no longer get one free visit to the al la carte restaurant. Food in the buffet restaurant was very good with plenty of choice. It was good to see the new hotel owners have retained some of the previous staff. Bedrooms are much the same as they were with new canvas chairs on the balcony, some wood surrounds on the mirrors in the bathroom and a coffee machine added to the tea tray. There are a lot more sunbeds around the pool but now they are very close together making it difficult to move when the sun goes round. The jacuzzi on the lower floor has been removed. There is a lot of double beds on the outskirts of the pool area but you have to pay extra to use them and in the two weeks that we were there none were used, such a waste of space. Entertainment in the lounge in the evening is very poor. They now only have a single singer, and some nights just a DJ playing music. The singers are basically musical theatre trained and some were better than others! Whilst there is a new stage area it needs a warm soft light on the singer because there face is always in darkness. Mention must be made of the housekeeper on floor 8 who kept our bedroom spotlessly clean.

“Accessible”

Excellent location and the staff were friendly and welcoming. I have given it 4 stars as the web site needs updating to show the new hand rails on the swimming pool steps. Also photos showing more of the interior with ramps. Our room was spacious, clean and we had the walk in shower. The restaurant food was very good and there was plenty of choice. Although the food could have been laid out better as the starters were put out in difficult places.
