"Lovely staff be it in the"

"We stayed in the cabins, they were lovely"

"This was my second time staying here. And I have to say the first time (September '25) was great and I felt that I had found a good hotel that I can use regularly when I come visit my daughter in University. First time around 5 stars, staff food excellent This time around the staff were just down right rude and didn't care, one evening I had to get my key fob reset and it took almost 20 for this very rude gentleman to come from out the back to reset my card. The chef also has changed because the food we got and my steak was some of the worst ever and the fries I had with the steak were still uncooked inside not to mention that it also took an absolute age to get served, and in fact it took that long I had to go to the cashier at the till to give him my order. Also please people dont waste your time getting the meal included with your room its a waste of money, you have a separate food menu and theres nothing on it worth eating so as I done i just paid for the main menu meal. All things considered and I stay in hotels quite a lot I was glad to get checked out only to get home and receive 5 yes 5 parking tickets now they each came at separate times so when I got the fifth one I didn't care anymore I just felt you can have my money.... (the other 4 I sent to the hotel and they squashed them). But all that aside, the rooms were very nice and the hotel was quite modern too and the breakfast I would give it 2 stars."

"We have stayed at the Riverside hotel a few times. Not been for about 8 years but had a one night stay on the 9th May. It has been one of my favourite hotels but after staying this time the cleanliness has gone down hill. The family room No 3 was very dusty on skirting boards and dado rails and window sill was covered in flies. The shower room needed bleaching around the bottom of the shower. The lamp on the dressing table was extra dusty on top . These things can be put right if you got a good cleaner in. It has certainly put me off staying again. The breakfast was so nice & were the staff. A lovely clean bed but the lack of dusting in the room has let this hotel down. 😪"

"It was fine for what it was. An overnight stay en route "

"I had such a delightful stay! The room was spacious and clean, with a breathtaking view that added to the enjoyment. The staff were incredibly friendly, making me feel right at home. I particularly appreciated the breakfast menu, which featured delicious vegan options. We made sure to reserve a table every morning. All in all, it was a truly fantastic experience!"

"Okay"
