Provider-sourced guest reviews.
Very comfy, spacious and warm. Perfect position in the middle of town. We had our own entrance and garden area.
No complaints at all.
Character, homely holiday apartment in a central location. Very clean & warm with a very comfortable large master bed. Rose was very friendly & welcoming.
Enjoy the quirkiness of the place - love the old-fashioned decor, especially the silk curtain
Given it was a wet windy weekend it would have been great to have TV more readily accessible. While we got the Chromecast to work on Friday night, we couldnt make it work on Saturday.
Very friendly

Great stay in a comfortable and quiet unit in downtown Riverton. Host was very helpful.
Lovely accommodation, close to shops & cafes

The hostess Rose was welcoming. The guest house was situated in a convenient central location, just a quick walk along the river path to the Museum and Aparima bridge. The bed was comfortable, and the room had good bathroom facilities. There was an attractive expansive outdoor seating space in a beautifully landscaped courtyard, ideal for eating in the sunshine.
The bedroom saw little sun.
Beautifully appointed. Exceptional quality. No effort spared. Gorgeous location. Wonderful outlook
Knives were blunt
Loved the building, the location, the gardens, the owner and host Rose was just fabulous. All in all, it was a lovely night away
Some shops were not open during the week. Disappointing
Everything
Super comfortable bed, lovely lounge area, great shower
Not our first stay - La Riviera is a very stylishly decorated apartment with a European feel- lovely outdoor courtyard surrounded by a herb / cottage garden - ideal for sitting in the sun with a wine. The ambience is undeniable, and the bed super cosy - lots of space as well. The host Rosie is very warm and welcoming. I certainly recommend this place over anything else in Riverton.
Rose is amazing very friendly and so helpfull, the apartment has everything you need. Garden was beautiful, great set up private yet open Rose isnt to far away thats great. Walking distance to takeaways, pub and cafés. Was just amazing!
Splendid size rooms. Very comfortable beds. Bathroom beautifully presented. I was travelling with my son, we only had one night to spend in Riverton. I'm glad we chose here. Close to town There is a lovely peaceful garden. Rose was lovely and accommodating. No problems when we arrived later than expected. There was milk in the fridge, which was a great bonus
All good
Very spacious and homely. Well presented. Garden / courtyard is the cherry on top. Very central location.
A little bit tired and dirty in some areas but not significantly, probably just a result of the maximalist decorating (i.e., too many things to clean all the time).
Rose was great when we called to say we'd be later than normal check-in, advised closing times of local restaurants, and met us on arrival to introduce the room features. The outdoor area is really nice, and the whole place shows that a lot of care and attention to detail has gone into its development and operation. It's in the main part of town, so easy access to grocery and cafes, as well as the riverfront park just across the street from the offstreet parking provided next to the entrance and outdoor relaxation area.
Can't think of a thing.
Lovely property with fabulous outdoor area at back of house. Very comfortable beds and very helpful host.
Beautiful apartment. Peaceful garden was perfect for evening glass of wine.
Convenient location, lovely garden, spacious, quiet
Awesome suite. The garden in back is amazing.
Location was ok, i would have preferred to have been on the beach but it was very central and easy to get to things. Bed was super comfy Good shower, would have loved a bath - as i love a bath after a long walk. Fishing was good, access out to the estuary from the house where is great for fishing Nice and peaceful Lovely gardens
TV was tiny and was not a smart TV which meant we could not log in to any of our streaming apps, so an update to the TV to make it a bit more modern and up to date would be great, and also bigger, it was a big room with a small TV so it was actually quite hard to watch.
Great location, very quiet. Gardens and space very personal. Clean and comfortable accommodation.
Loved it all

The accommodation was tatty and tired and felt unclean
Room only, so no food comments. Location good for central Riverton. Plenty of space, interesting period decor and furnishings, good facilities overall.
No heating in rooms, since even in mid summer the weather was cool and damp and a bit of warmth would have been appreciated.
Quite and spacious apartment

Comfortable and roomy with great outlook onto lovely garden. Owner helpful with suggestions for dinner and breakfast
Very pretty setting, loved the overall ambience. Would highly recommend if you like to stay somewhere a little different. 😍
Very comfortable and warm. The bed was comfortable and shower was great
The nose from the upstairs guests, very noisy
Comfortable, well located
We assumed when booking that we were paying for two rooms and three beds, there was a chance that our two sons were joining us at my sister's 60th so it was convenient to have the option of the two extra beds We arrived with our four year old Granddaughter ( who's mother had been called out as a volunteer to a 'search and rescue') only to be told that no children were allowed. We had just travelled two and a half hours and had to sit outside with our Granddaughter until another relative could pick her up and subsequently keep her overnight. We were also told at that time that any extra people that stayed in our rooms would incur a $90 fee each. When booking on booking.com I was not made aware of the $90 extra per person or children not being allowed so it ended up just the two of us using one room for $206 !! So basically just a studio room. As the facilities were in the other unheated room, we didn't bother going in there and just used the one bed and bathroom
I got the ground-floor room with the garden patio and enjoyed the view of the beautifully kept garden and the river beyond. Loved the character of the place overall and interesting decor - bed was so prettily made up it seemed a shame to get in it and disturb it. Great location, everything I needed in easy walking distance. Big private parking area. Friendly and welcoming staff (owner was away, I was greeted by her helper).
Overall was nice and clean in all the important places, but a few basic things had been missed, no biggie, just unexpected for being at the higher end of prices for accommodation in the area.
Central location, close to cafe. The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom facilities were very good.
The "kitchenette" was very small, no sink, the benchtop was not very clean. The window curtain in the bedroom was unable to be closed. The hooks were stuck in the track and too high to reach. The T.V needed to be chromecast from personal phone.
We enjoyed our stay in this beautifully restored unit and would have loved the outdoor area in fine weather. Comfortable with great cooking facilities
I would have liked more light in the table/sink area in the dark morning.
The place is very interesting
Just the character of the place .awesome
Beautifully appointed. So many little additions that make it really special and tasteful.
Quiet location in Riverport, beautiful sunny private garden.
The property is well situated and easy to park the car. Hostess is very pleasant and informative
The layout of the apartment. It was described as a 2 bedroom apartment with a kitchen. It was not. The single door entry was into the main bedroom. The bed was comfortable. The bathroom was off the main bedroom so any person using the bathroom had to walk thru the main bedroom. There was no second bedroom. In the lounge there was a double bed and a single bed so there was no second bedroom. There was in the lounge a short table about 350mm which was the bench but there was no sink or running water. If you wanted water or to wash things you had to use the bathroom basin which meant a walk thru the main bedroom. There was a microwave only. Over priced and mis described
Lovely oldie worldy well maintained building, with high ceilings. Elegant decor and lovely elegant host. She was great and so welcoming. It is a perfect place to stay and as it is for sale I recommend anyone moving to Riverton should buy it! And the great cafe across the road. Then you'd have a B&B eh! Charles (Hannah's Dad)
Nothing
Great location and lots of space, the gardens and outside area were lovely, all very well looked after and homely.
It’s in an historic building
It was very over priced. Great reviews did not reflect the standard of accomodation. We felt the reviews were fake. This is not boutique standard, many of the renovations were cheaply finished. 3 beds had reasonable quality linen but one had polyester sheets and dacron duvet inner.
Excellent service and very clean facilities
A bit pricey
Private,great bed,shower

We get to see the Christmas parade close to town. Which is cool .
