Friendly staff, lovely setting

Staff were very friendly. Complementary drinks vouchers and also a complementary shuttle bus to and from town were fantastic touches. It’s a shame they don’t offer food in the evening. Lovely location, great setting with the cathedral in the background

Very exceptional stay at Riverside. Lovely big room, well heated and very comfortable. Beautiful view from the bar terrace and lovely staff. We were told our breakfast was included mistakenly, however the hotel allowed us to have coffee and tea. Highly recommend!

Steve

Staff was very friendly and attentive. Good breakfast. Jason who drove the shuttle very accommodating. The room was nice but lacked storage space in the bathroom. The bathroom fan cycling on and off was irritating. And it didn’t clear the steam from the shower. Pillows were flat and hard. But even with these shortcomings I’d stay there again.
