Great Hotel.

We loved our stay at the Riviera. Great food. Perfectly situated for the Beach and Prominade and having a Lift down to them was Excellent. A great Entertainment venue, but more choice of Cabaret Artists would have been appreciated.

Noisy floor boards.

First class service only thing to dislike was the badly installed flooring in rooms which were really noisy to walk over transmitting noise to other rooms.

Last chance Hotel

Overall hotel good ,but the last couple of days the meals quality changed ,which i thought strange the only difference? I can but it down to was from southern to northern visitors. And it was quite dramatic the difference unfortunately we like are rations. This is no reflexion on the chief's as they were excellent. Reception , efficient but not friendly . Bottled water at table 2.50euro or wine. Meal times good breakfast 8-11am which is included ,dinner 6.30 -9pm. Hotel situated on the promenade access through private gate ,which a guest informed me as she closed it in my face Ha Ha I just love em . By the way most guests are couples and 65 plus so don't expect to find anyone more physical than the promenade shuffle, The Tue reps are all young and will remind you (unintentionally) of what you could do when you were there age ,ha ha you've got to laugh. Loverly lady cook dealing with grumpy visitors smiles at grumps and says Holidays Happy Times. Best laugh. Try to remember that and if someone says Good morning answer in a positive Good Morning practice in the mirror before you go . Think of Robin williams in Vietnam. Bottom line , It's a Hotel the rest is up to YOU.

Checking in was a very negative experience. The reception lady was unbelievably rude and inconsiderate. There are lots of hotels in the area and in future, we’ll be sure to book elsewhere. On holiday we like to sleep past 7AM and not possible at this place - doors thumping constantly. Horrid.

Hotel as expected- enjoyable stay

Our stay lived up to our expectations. We had a room side on to the sea and the road. The road was noisy on balcony, but inside the room the traffic was barely audible. Regrettably there was the normal reserving of sun beds despite signs banning it. Food was good enough , no complaints there and the restaurant provided a nice atmosphere.

Hotel was clean and good facilities although we arrived around 11.30 and no sun loungers left although there was plenty of extra space around the pool but said they had no more. Not good for the amount of guests. Hotel corridors were painted grey and really dark, could do with a brighter colour, rooms also on the dark side but ok, except for the creaking floorboards. All in all had a good stay for 2 nights, got up early for the sunbeds the next day.
