All the staff were polite and helpful,Aldo on reception was welcoming which is nice after a long flight.The Hotel is clean,Good facilities,Great breakfast to suit everyone.The room was comfortable and clean with a king size bed,I would say maybe a tad dated but nothing to spoil our stay,It was excellent value for money.

    RIU Hotel

    Very nice and clean. Handy to Pier 39 being only a 5 minute walk away. Staff were very helpful and friendly. A little expensive to park your car there daily. No laundry facilities but there are laundromats close by. Breakfast is very substantial with a wide choice for everyone. Highly recommend this place to stay.

    Fun for a Family of 5

    My wife, 2 boys, 2 month old girl, and myself came from Los Angeles to visit my father who I was meeting for the first time. We enjoyed our hotel room. We all loved the brunch! I had a great time in the gym. We enjoyed the Cafe as well but really wish there was a microwave available to reheat our leftovers. Would've loved to enjoy the pool if the weather was warmer. We definitely plan to return!

    Highly recommend

    Everything about the hotel was great. We even got a complimentary upgrade. Staff was friendly and check in was smooth. They even held some groceries that had gotten delivered earlier for us. Breakfast was amazing, as usual with the RIU hotels! Just note the rooms do not have conditioner so bring your own.
