Great location wonderful hotel
Great location, amazing staff. Breakfast was ample with a good variety from many countries. The staff is that of a 5 star hotel from the porter to check in and breakfast staff to housekeeping. Everyone made us feel welcome. Even when we couldn't check in early, they welcomed us to leave our bags or just sit and enjoy the views.

Exceeded expectations
Wanted a more local feel. So. Moved from downtown to this hotel. Wonderful decision. Staff was amazing at every level. From check in to breakfast, the porters and housekeeping. Everyone made us feel welcome. Great location and very safe. We wanted a creek view and we're put in a lower level (1). The view was awesome. The AC was a little loud but worked. Breakfast was ample and diverse. The omelet station was a nice touch and they changed the grill items daily. We even had chicken fajitas this morning.

I liked being in a part of town that is old and has some history. I also liked to be on the Dubai Creek and enjoyed thaking the small ferries to visit some sights. Very convenient to the metro as well. The room was very comfortable and well furnished. The cafeteria service off-hours was great and breakfast was very abundant and offered great variety of food.

The Riviera Hotel is an excellent place to stay. Each time I stay, I'm impressed with the friendliness and efficiency of the staff. Plus it's in a great location right next to Dubai Creek. The rooms are well appointed, the restaurant provides an excellent breakfast - what's not to like?!

Good Deira location and good value
As a previous resident of Dubai, the hotel met all my expectations: namely being in a great location in the older part of the city, a few minutes walk from Baniyas square metro station, restaurants, supermarkets and shops of all kinds. It also was clean, friendly and helpful staff, and good value for money compared with newer hotels. The only issue is no parking, but having a car in that area is a hassle compared to using the metro and taxis. A taxi to the airport is 25-30 Dirhams and 10-15 minutes. I recommend the hotel, and want to give particular thanks to the employee who helped me round up the 10 dirhams in coins which I needed to park across the street (but not easy to find a space) on the day I checked in and before returning a car. I would definitely stay there again.

Don't waste your money
I booked a royal suite creek view with Balcony for New Year’s Eve to have good time with my girlfriend and watch the fireworks. They denied us staying at the hotel because we don’t have a marriage certificate, although the laws have changed in the UAE. When I requested a refund they rudely refused. If you book with this hotel you will be loosing your money for nothing.
