We booked 2 rooms! The scenario is very much the same with both rooms! When we arrived at our room, our bathroom was dirty. There was urine on the toilet seat and black hair all over the toilet and bathroom. Then we found the safe was not working and neither did the one stand lamp. After some time we found... More

We previously stayed at Riverside lifestyle resort and were impressed with the service, that's why we booked again! BIG MISTAKE. The furniture is broken and lookes tatty, the paint is peeling off the walls in the bathroom. We wanted to have a shower, but there were no towels, so as you do you try to call reception, BUT waite the... More

This hotel is completely stuck in 70s. Room fixtures and fittings are old and outdated and definitely show the age. Probably not much can be done to improve ugliness of the building itself, but interior is in dire need of refurbishment and detailed cleaning. Rooms are specious, but badly appointed. A family room that takes two adults and two children,... More

What an awesome setting but service doesn't match. Staff need a serious lesson in customer service. There were guests left over room service dishes left in the passage for more than 3hrs. After being promised a frequent guest discount, I was charged full price. NOT COOL. At breakfast, I couldn't get coffee, and the lady complained about having to make... More

Considering the cost of the stay, I'm greatly disappointed in the offering of the Riverside Sun Lifestyle Resort as it comes nowhere near that that we are used to being offered by Sun International. The hotel offers nothing exceptional and is very mediocre in most ways. Service is unfriendly, uncaring and very slow. The bar was understaffed throughout our stay... More

DO NOT STAY IN ROOM 506 ,if you want a sore back or stiff neck just try the beds... no kettle or telephone in room and if you ask for a ketting ,not once but twice, you can forget about it . Average hotel - otherwise not a bad hotel, lots of things to do if you have kids.

Hotel has been rebranded a few times as I have been a regular guest over the years primarily because of it's location. Rooms have been pleasantly refreshed but bathrooms remain a feature from yesteryear! Staff & management are rather un-interested & sometimes arrogant but it seems this hotel has alot of government business so they can't really be bothered with... More
