Riverbank Lodge Reviews

6.8/10

United Kingdom, June 2023

Fresh River Breeze and Scenic View - A Fabulous Combination!

During our city break, we were lucky enough to secure a room with a spectacular view. The fresh river breeze that blew through the window was incredibly refreshing. The peaceful setting made it easy to forget we were so close to the city. The room was clean and the shower had great water pressure. The breakfast was simple but filling, and the staff were accommodating.

While the view and fresh air were amazing, the lack of the charging points in the room was a bit inconvenient. There were only one or two outlets, and these were already being used by the TV and coffee station.

The secure parking behind electronic gates gave me peace of mind, and the breakfast served was superbly cooked and presented. The staff were very attentive and made sure I had everything I needed. I loved the hotel's river frontage and lawns, as well as the perfect braai facilities in front of my room. I would highly recommend this place to any traveler.

We had a relaxing stay at a lodge along a beautiful river. Our room had a balcony overlooking the water, which added to the peaceful atmosphere. The lodge provided a boat ride up the river, a lovely experience. Breakfast was satisfying, and the owner was friendly and accommodating. I would recommend this place for a tranquil getaway.
