Riverside Hotel

Fort Lauderdale, Gold Coast Beaches

3 stars

Available offers

Full of Old Florida charm, the Spanish tile floors and and overhead fans means that this classic hotel fits in well within the Cuban feel of Las Olas Boulevard. The road is the forefront of everything from restaurants to fashion boutiques, art galleries to bars - so it's a great alternative to the oceanfront hotels of Fort Lauderdale, and the beach is still only a 10 minute drive away! There's a wide variety of dining options available within the hotel too - with Wild Sea featuring an impressive raw bar and a creative seafood menu, all of which can be enjoyed whilst watching the yachts sail down the river. The Golden Lyon Pub and Preston's Wine and Martini Lounge both offer happy hours for a pre-dinner tipple too. If you're not planning to spend much time in your room, the Micro room offers value for money, but upgrading will give you more space to relax in for families.

“Employee Teneus from Riverside Hotel Fort Lauderdale Florida.”

Feb 10, 2026Francine M

I had my car parked by an employee from the Riverside Hotel in Fort Lauderdale Florida by the first nameTeneus. I’ve never meet such a well mannered individual in my life. He was gracious, professional and a true gentleman. I wish there were more Teneus in this world.
