What guests think

At Riverwood Hotel - Adults Only, guests often mention clean, budget-friendly rooms, welcoming staff, and a convenient setting near shops and the train, but experiences differ depending on room type, sound insulation, and the on-site bar and gaming venue operating late.

Many rooms are comfortable but some are small or lack private bathrooms, leading to shared bathrooms and occasional waits or hot-water issues. Cleanliness is commonly praised, yet a few guests noted pests or lapses in shared facilities. The on-site bistro earns positive feedback for tasty, affordable meals, with isolated complaints about bar service and smoke. Overall, this suits value seekers comfortable with simple rooms and occasional bustle.

I specially liked the food choices from the restaurant. The meal that I chose was excellent. Cigarette smoke entered the area of the rooms. I did not like the strong smell of cigarete smoke in the bar areas.

The proprty is within reasonable distance from Sydney's landmarks. Commuting in Sydney is great with public transport. There is a train station, bus stations in that area. The Area is considered relatively quiet, although the Hotel has a casino and Bottler shop. It is for adults only as I have seen reviews from people who were not aware. The rooms are nice with windows and airconditioners. However, not all rooms are on-suit. Some rooms dont have neither toilet nor shower and clients would need to use shared Toilet or shower, one at a time. Expedia doesn't clarify this on their wbsite when you book it through Expedia, and you might end up in a room with no toilet nor shower. This is what happened to me, but the managers at Riverwood Hotel were eventually reasonable to provide me an en-suit room although they claim that Expedia has booked me the type of room that comes with no toilet nor shower.

The staff are absolutely amazing, there were a few /insects/ in the room, but other than that was a very enjoyable stay! The food downstairs is great, and despite the establishment below being open until 4am, no noise or anything carries up stairs. Staff allowed me an early check in due to my room being unused the previous night, and went above and beyond to make me feel welcome. The location is great (especially if needing a short stay before flying out of Sydney!)

The room was really nice, really good value for the price paid. My only criticism is that there was black hair all through the bed and in the bathroom which I assume (hope) was left by the cleaner. This was a little off putting but the sheets looked clean and the bed was super comfy so not a huge deal. The biggest issue was the noise. You can hear everything happening outside the room and being a light sleeper I was woken every time someone went to the toilet or closed a door. There seemed to only be a few other guests there, I can imagine it would be much worse if the place was at capacity. I would definitely stay again, will just being ear plugs next time to ensure a better nights sleep.

I had to request for a toilet roll in a bathroom. The room by itself is small but good enough for 1 person. The bathroom is dirty so it should be regularly cleaned. The bathroom shower sliding door is broken and guests had only one bathroom upstairs to share which was inconvenient. No hair dryer but bathroom towels, soap and hair shampoo provided. Would recommend to book room with ensuite. bathroom

I was impress with the customer service and I can see they put so much effort into the renovations and looks great and clean. The big problem I had was German cockroaches that start climbing the bed at night. I can't believe it. So spotless and did not manage pest control. It is sad because the place is brand new. I won't come back again!

Excellent place to stay - the double room was so comfortable & clean, has everything you need. Easy to get into town on the train & facilities are brilliant. Toiletries, towels & coffee provided which was a big plus. Couple of cobwebs here & there in the bathroom & can be a little bit loud at night, but with some earplugs you’ll have the best sleep of your life. Will be staying again.

This place is cheaply rated so you get what you pay for. On check in, the manager ignored me because he was busy setting up a pool competition at the bar and the counter was unmanned. When I asked if he saw me, he said he did but the competition was more important. I’d flown in from overseas and it was close to 10pm. The shared kitchen had no cutlery and I had to go next door to ask for some and the staff member looked hesitant to provide me with utensils. They provide you with a bar soap which makes no sense if you’re in a shared bathroom because it’s difficult to transport that back. The accommodation area was noisy, other patrons were generally allowed to be noisy and disruptive and management basically left us to it. The shared fridge had food in it that expired in 2024 so I’m not sure it’s getting cleaned at all. Overall it was clean and the bathrooms were cleaned frequently but that’s it.

Great place to stay on a budget. I booked through an app and was not told the bathroom was shared. Had I known I would not have booked. Lack of water or sink in the room is a big inconvenience. And a shock surprise when the bathroom was available there was no toilet paper in the receptical. Good location though if travelling through southern Sydney.
