Rivera del Rio was amazing, I loved everything about my stay. The staff was wonderful, the building is fascinating, the pools were luxurious, and I looked forward to breakfast every day.
My husband and I stayed at this adorable hotel for 3 nights. We absolutely enjoyed our stay at this hotel. While the hotel boasts beautifully decorated spaces it is the staff at Rivera Del Rio that made this place wonderful. The breakfast staff, the bartender and the woman at front desk and Javier were very attentive and a pleasure to talk to. We truly enjoyed our stay and look forward to staying here again.
We enjoyed our time there and love the bartender Jesus on the top floor pool. Very nice and knowledgeable about the area and great suggestion on dinning
My 3rd visit to the property. Many more to come. The staff and rooms are amazing. The rooftop pool is a beautiful place to watch the sunset. Many restaurants very close by. Lifetime customer!
This place is absolutely beautiful , stayed in the Cortez suite . No words gotta check it out yourself. Staff is also, so nice and attentive to all your needs definitely will be staying again and only a 10min walk to the beach
The property it’s self was very unique and staff we very helpful especially the two cats that are on staff.
I did have to move because I have mobility issues and the streets and surrounding area was not safe for me and my service dog .
Beautiful hotel with eclectic style, 2 pools, a giant hot tub and great staff. A short walk to many restaurants, the beach and shopping. Javier at the front desk gave us great suggestions and made sure we were happy with our stay. Quite a view from our 5th floor room! We will definitely stay there again.
