Reviews and Ratings
The Rivercroft Hotel had its pros and cons. The rooms were cozy but showed signs of wear and tear, with wallpaper peeling off in places. The service was a mixed bag, with some staff being lovely while others were surly and rude. The location was convenient, right by the river estuary, but parking could get costly. The dining options ranged from tired and old-fashioned to exceptional, offering a variety of delicious choices. Overall, it was a decent stay with room for improvement.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The room was noisy due to its location next to a door leading to other rooms, making it hard to sleep in. However, the price was fair for what was offered, and the views from the bar and dining room were pleasant.
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were cozy and clean, but a bit small for my liking. The service was excellent, with friendly and welcoming staff. The dining experience was enjoyable, especially the breakfast options. However, the facilities were not perfect, as the room could smell due to the kitchen fan and the darkness caused by the stone wall.
