Our room was clean and comfortable, Hotel Riu is well located for everything we wanted to do. The fire pits were a nice touch, and the hotel staff were wonderful. Bag check was very convenient, we stored our bags before and after check in instead of leaving them in our car. Breakfast was really good for an included hotel breakfast. Lots of variety and pretty fresh.

Location, location, location! The Riu is perfectly situation in close proximity to the Wharf and a whole host of shops, restaurants and bars. This is the hotel’s biggest plus. Inside, the lobby is pretty and inviting. Staff are nice. Breakfast (included) is hearty, with eggs, bacon, sausage, fruit, yogurt, pastries and more. It’s on the level of all-inclusive resorts and very nice to have. Downsides: Rooms are just OK. Beds are comfortable. Bathrooms are TINY. Walls (and ceilings) are thin, with noise coming from neighbors and floors above. A fan app on our phone helped drown it out a bit. This is not a quiet hotel. The room HVAC was a little tricky but sufficient. I would go back in the future, but probably ask for a higher floor (we were on the second) to minimize noise.

Perfect location (at the pier in minutes and a nice Trader Joes also minutes away) incredible complimentary breakfast (the selection is mind boggling for a free breakfast!) and friendly staff. The outdoor fire tables are also awesome and we needed them for the cold and rainy weather. The only thing they need to fix is the wifi. It’s not good enough for 2026 and would be the only reason I wouldn’t go back. Being that it’s an older hotel, you can hear noises so bring a sound machine. I’m a light sleeper and it wasn’t an issue with the sound machine.
