Welcome to the Riverside Hotel

The Riverside Hotel's enviable location on Las Olas Boulevard combines the delightful ambiance of restaurants and nightclubs interspersed with art and antique galleries, plus exclusive boutiques. Charming, tree-lined Las Olas is frequented by shoppers, businessmen, visitors and artists at all times of the day, while at night it becomes a romantic wonderland that includes horse-drawn carriage rides similar to those found in Central Park, New York. Situated on the banks of New River, the Riverside Hotel is only blocks from Fort Lauderdale's central business district. Guests can stroll the mile-long Riverwalk which leads from the pioneer Stranahan House to the acclaimed Broward Center for the Performing Arts, the Museum of Discovery and Science and IMAX Theater, the Fort Lauderdale Museum of Art, and the Broward County Main Library. Here is the tropical paradise for which Fort Lauderdale is famous, and the Riverside Hotel will put you in the heart of charming and historic Las Olas Boulevard. The hotel is also just minutes from the Fort Lauderdale / Hollywood International Airport, Port Everglades International Cruise Port, and the Broward County Convention Center. ...read more

In a prime Downtown Ft. Lauderdale location two miles from the beach, this 1930s Old Florida beauty has oil paintings in its lobby, "elegantly decorated halls" and a "courteous and helpful" staff; rooms in the original section can be "tiny" and "outdated", with vistas of nothing better than a garage, but those in the tower addition, built in 2002 and more expensive, are fresher and have larger bathrooms (and, in some, "fantastic balcony views of the Atlantic"); budget $20 a day if you want to park on-site.

It's nostalgic. It's friendly. It's pretty.
The bar staff are extremely rude. This is the 2nd time this year for bad treatment in the bar.

We love the hotel. 2nd time we've stayed here. Would stay again, but would find a different bar to go to. We love sitting along the street having a cocktail, but the bar staff is completely inattentive and rude. They make you feel like they don't want you there. ...read more

Location and staff were top notch!

Amazing value for the price I got on priceline. Location was near shopping, dining, and close enough to the beach! Best hotel I've ever stayed at! I loved their policy of being able to check in early if needed and checking out late if needed. Awesome awesome staff! ...read more
