The room was clean but very dated — definitely in need of an update. The décor and furnishings felt old-fashioned, and unfortunately, the view was of a brick wall, which made the room feel quite closed in. The room did not match the website photos. Staff were polite, but overall the experience didn’t match the price or expectations. Biggest disappointment was no parking available at 3pm even after requesting to reserve a park. Local car parking was expensive and a fair walk. Personally would not book again as needed parking.

We had a 4 night stay in a deluxe room with balcony on the 3rd floor. Room was neat & tidy with a comfortable bed. Only negative was the outside traffic noise. Main lift was out of action. 2nd lift went to 2nd floor. We were offered free car parking for the inconvenience. Check in was quick & friendly.

Located on North Terrace of CBD it is easily accessible for tour pick ups. Nearby tram stop and bus stop outside. Near hospital so some emergency services sirens but generally quite quiet. Room comfortable and clean. Fully serviced with laundry available for use. Reception staff freindly helpful and efficient. I decided to extend my visit.

Whilst room was older it was clean. As a family room great that it had a bath in there and two singles for the kids and a table and chairs. The queen bed sagged in the middle so could do with a new mattress. Quiet noisy however it was illuminate so to be expected at night but some window treatment would help. Also, quite bright in morning.. could do with blinds if Im being picky. However very convenient and good price which is nice to see in the city. Happy with what we got for the price. Staff on both check in and out were super helpful along with having the ability to have a carpark right there!

Disappointing Stay - Not Worth the Price I recently stayed at this hotel and unfortunately, it didn’t meet expectations. The room I was allocated was old and run-down, with a very squeaky and uncomfortable bed. It felt like the room hadn’t been updated in ages, and the overall vibe was quite outdated. The bathroom was a particular letdown. The shower amenities were subpar—there was a missing door from the cabinet, which caused water to splash all over the place when showering. The tap for the bathtub had been removed entirely, leaving it completely unusable. The sink was also stained, which just added to the overall feeling of neglect. Overall, the stay was far from pleasant, and I would not recommend this hotel. This hotel needs to make some serious upgrades to their rooms and amenities.

Between 6am and 11pm, there will be a plane taking off every few minutes. It's not too bad during the day but early hours in the morning or late in the evening, they can get very loud. The rooms can do with better sound proofing and perhaps double glazing on the windows and balcony sliding doors. The street that leads to the car park and back entrance is not safe after dark. There is also no access control to different floors. Anyone can get up the lift through to any level. The only security that protects us is the door to the room. I still score this hotel 4 stars for its very reasonable room rates. The location is also amazing as everything is just conveniently located within walking distance. There is also a tram stop in front of the hotel main entrance in case walking is not your thing. The staff was very friendly and greeted me every time I walked pass the front desk.

Rooms are overdue for an update, but if they are the way they are and clean, I would rather be able to get affordable accommodation 👌 Telly has to go. Not a very smart telly... didnt even have ABC Kids for little ones to unwind to after a day of walking around the city.

We enjoyed our stay at the Riviera, but after booking an executive room, we were disappointed with the noise, no double glazing..very difficult to sleep. The room could also do with a bit of maintenance, not sure when the aircon was changed, but hasn't been painted around it.

Reception staff very helpful, quick and easy check in, appreciated having the aircon already running in my room prior to arrival on a very hot day (rooms require key tag for power to switch on normally), has everything you need and close to trams, buses, hospital and good pizza place 2-3 minute walk away. Good variety in the mini bar. Downside on this trip was the false fire alarm at 2.30 in the morning but on the positive at least we know it works and the staff at the time were very apologetic for the inconvenience. Check out was quick and easy as well. Definitely good value for money. See you again next week.

I stayed here on two separate occasions for a total of nine nights. Excellent location, clean, nice sized room. Great staff! I arrived at the hotel at 8:30 am(!) following 30 hours in transit, and could barely focus. The room wasn't ready yet, and staff told me they'd call me when it was. An hour later they did, and I checked in. They didn't have to let me in that early, and they certainly were under no obligation to call me when the room was ready, but they did! That saved the day for me!

Only negative thing was my mini fridge made a loud noise constantly that affected my sleep. I let the reception know and they just said would tell maintenance and that was it.

Basic CBD Hotel. Family room was clean and comfortable. Obvious recent update to room and hallways. Beds were comfortable and noise from outside was minimal. Location is quite good, very close walking distance to a wide number of eateries which was handy as there is no bar or restaurant on site. Unfortunately there was no TV reception (TV was even re-tuned) which was disappointing. Also, we didn’t receive the $15 beverage credit we were meant to receive for booking a VIP property, possibly because they have no way to redeem as there is no bar.
