Friendly staff, lovely setting

Staff were very friendly. Complementary drinks vouchers and also a complementary shuttle bus to and from town were fantastic touches. It’s a shame they don’t offer food in the evening. Lovely location, great setting with the cathedral in the background

Great!

Very exceptional stay at Riverside. Lovely big room, well heated and very comfortable. Beautiful view from the bar terrace and lovely staff. We were told our breakfast was included mistakenly, however the hotel allowed us to have coffee and tea. Highly recommend!

Our stay at The Riverside was superb. The staff were welcoming and very helpful. We were given a local map and advice on enjoying our visit to Salisbury. The location was excellent, a 15 minute delightful walk to the Cathedral and the main town. This enabled us to have dinner in the town and then walk back past the Cathedral. We thoroughly recommend a stay at The Riverside, you will not be disappointed!
