Lovely traditional hotel set on the beachfront road overlooking the sea at Sidmouth. We reserved one night and the staff were all very polite and helpful, our room, although a standard classification, was extremely comfortable with a lovely King sized bed, the bathroom was spotlessly clean, towels were all of excellent quality, also a big bonus was having car parking available on site by pre-booking, overall a throughly enjoyable stay at the Riviera we would definitely return.

Lovely break

The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The hotel was spotlessly clean and the breakfast delicious I would only suggest that marmalade is included in the selection of jams at breakfast (a minor detail) Many thanks for a lovely but all too brief stay

Lovely hotel in a great location with fantastic sea views. The welcome and attention by the staff was excellent. The only disappointment was that the hotel bill at the end of the stay was much less than what we had already paid to Expedia.

The hotel is lovely and the staff are very polite and friendly. Situated right on the seafront the front facing room was large with perfect views. We visited at the end of February and it was a shame that the bar was not set up to sell draught beers and the main restaurant was not open in the evenings. My husband is gluten free which the hotel knew in advance but he was not able to have any gluten free cereal for breakfast. I do want to reiterate the hotel and our room was lovely and Sidmouth is a thriving lovely town. We did really enjoy our stay.

Every member of Hotel Riviera staff were extremely efficient, attentive and polite at all times. The dining room served good quality, delicious meals at a reasonable £30 for a 3 course meal. Nothing was too much trouble. Eating and drinking on the terrace was very pleasant but expensive. The seating areas and dining room are air conditioned which makes it very comfortable. A very pleasant stay.
