Felt right at home. We love the intimacy and local embeddedness and aesthetic of boutique hotels but recognize the risk of not sticking with a trusted brand. Rivera Del Rio delivered. It's beautiful and has so many rich details, including the resident cats Elizabeth (the Queen) and Francisco. Live it.

Lovely Hotel with Wonderful Staff
Great boutique hotel and wonderful, welcoming staff. I highly recommend this place. Yes, it’s a little off the beaten path compared to hotels closer to the beach, but it’s really not far at all from anything in the Zona Romantica, and the soothing sound of the river is worth every additional step.

Went with my partner to PV in June 2024. This hotel was perfect - best place I've ever stayed anywhere. Everything was stunning. Pools are incredible. Views: immaculate. Service was fantastic and so warm and friendly. The cat, Elizabeth, even cuddled with us on our last night! Everything was clean. Location was also walkable to the beach, boardwalk, and many many great restaurants and bars. Amazing street food near the church in the evenings! Would recommend this place to anyone.

Lovely and little bohemian escape
The hotel did not have our reservation through hotels.com on file, so they had to find us a different room. It took a little while and it was a different room than I booked, but had a beautiful view and overlooked the river. We loved the decor and location. It was dreamy! Jerry was very nice and the pools and hot tubs (with bar on top floor) were great. We walked everywhere. It was lovely.
