Lock in a great price for Riverside Hotel – rated 8.6 by recent guests!

to get started.

Comfortable room despite being compact. Excellent food. Great location. Really liked little touches like plug points with USB for charging mobile phone kindle laptops or any other gadget you may have. There was a wedding taking place during our stay and I must say what a great place for a venue . We would definitely stay again.

Elaine, United Kingdom

All was good except for a really rude receptionist

Julie, United Kingdom

we thoroughly enjoyed our two night stay at The Riverside Hotel. Very comfortable, excellent prices for drinks and meals. Lovely walks by the river, very tranquil. Staff very friendly. Would rate the hotel more than a 3 star.

Doreen, United Kingdom

I was there for a wedding and despite extremely cold conditions things went well. Food was excellent and staff were generally very good. Key card security from main hotel to bedrooms. Drinks very expensive. Large car parks, rooms small but adequate. Not sure about a long stay. Location right on the river with terrace and lawns to a river walk. Good breakfast.

Philip, United Kingdom

Comfortable and quiet location. Staff at breakfast were very efficient and friendly.

“A good venue for a wedding, rooms a little pricey for what it is and drinks expensive.”

My son bought a large round of drinks and offered one to the barmaid and she charged £4.50 which even at todays prices seems over the top. The hotel is a bit of a maze so keeping track of lots of small children, 5-10 yr olds, was difficult at times but to be fair the staff were very good with them.

Without a Sat Nav it was difficult to find. The breakfast, though a very good menu the food was only lukewarm. The tea not made with boiling water.
The position of the hotel was marvellous, the river running by and the lovely gardens. The room was very comfortable. The restaurant and bar very cosy and the food plentiful.

“Hotel nice but breakfast horrible ”

We like a full English breakfast but it was a very low standard / revolting in fact, it was so bad that our stay was for four nights but we didn’t bother with the breakfast for the further three mornings after we had tried it on the first morning. Of all the hotels we stay in all over the country I can honestly say this is the worst breakfast we’ve ever had. The rooms have improved with this hotel but the English breakfast standard dropped as it used to be a lovely breakfast here as we’ve stayed here for many years. Beans dried up, egg raw, bacon was cheap, really smothered in fat and barely cooked, sausage just tasted cheap, mushrooms and tomato edible, I had to ask for toast which came with no butter, so I ask for butter but was then given margarine. To top all of that without sounding petty it wasn’t presented in the plate the best I’ve seen either! Bl**dy awful! I ate some of the mushrooms, a bite of the toast and walked out!
Room updated since our last stay and really nice
