We found black dots on the duvet cover. We requested to change but it took us to have long conversation with the manager in order to get that change. Other than that it was pleasant to stay.

The view was not so nice, the room only got cleaned half the time i was there 2 out of 4 nights, the toilet was dirty sink blocked, and breakfast took 35 mins on day 1 for toast and bacon, so had to leave. wouldn't go back to see the view below. ps they said they would get the manager to call me, of course this never happened so i wrote my review.

We stayed for a long weekend to visit family. After a horrendous train journey the warm welcome and attentiveness of all the staff helped us relax and enjoy the peace and quiet and fresh air. The weather was hot but the fan and large window in our room helped keep us cool. The facilities such as the powerful shower and comfy bed were also much appreciated. We had lunch in the restaurant and received the same courtesy and care. And Helensburgh is a friendly town too. All this combined to make our stay memorable for all the right reasons.

The Riva calls itself a boutique hotel but it isnt. The room we had was adequate but I dont feel having a see through toilet door is the right thing to have in a room. The lady made such a fuss at having a record player n the room but who cares when I can see my husband on the toilet or in the shower .Breakfast was OK but there was no one at all in the area .We had to presume you helped yourself .It felt like the Marie Celeste .A lady did come after a time and I was aggrieved that as we were leaving the area she began to put Danish pastries on the buffet,

Booked the family room. It was a very warm day, there was no AC, only a large standing fan which when turned on blew out awful dust which immediately enflamed mine and my daughter's allergies. The cage face of the fan randomly fell off at one point while the fan was on leaving the blades exposed when I have two small children running around. The room was generally dusty with clumps of dust on the phone. The door on the bathroom was glass so you could see anyone in the loo. One of the windows were jammed open with a large gap but it looked out onto a grimy roof and it felt like an animal could come in the window at any point. There was something on the bottom of the main door to block out the light but there was a large part broken and my youngest child caught her foot on and cut. We were all so uncomfortable trying to sleep that we decided to leave at 10pm and drive home. When we went downstairs, there was no staff to complain to and we weren't going to hang about in our jammies as the reception is also a pub. Completely wasted £125

A number of isdues: 1) Anyone sitting on the en suite toilet was visible from the bedroom - very unsettling; 2) Ceiling light was half falling out of its fitting - very dangerous; 3) Toilet seat not fixed to the floor, unstable; 4) Blood stains left on toilet brush; 5) Restaurant closed at 8pm!; and, 6) We are disabled, and asked when booking if the Hotel had parking, but after arriving found it was a couple of hundred yards away st the Leisure Centre! When vompkainjng we were told the hotel is full and thrre is no one to help us. We will never return here, and are seeking a full refund.

The room was very small & had no outlook. It was called a Superior King Room but was far from that. The bed was soft & various things in the room were dirty (the remote control and areas in the shower). It felt grubby and not very nice. The food was average & the dining area quite dark. I couldnt wait to leave.
