Riviera Spa Resort's location is often praised, especially its proximity to the Gozo ferry and boat trips to Comino and the Blue Lagoon. The hotel offers spacious and clean rooms, a variety of facilities including multiple pools (both outdoor and indoor), and a well-equipped gym, some guests, however, have noted that the poolside snack bar could be better. Guests generally enjoy the themed buffet dinners with a great choice of food, also appreciating the convenience of filtered water fountains available on every floor.

okay stay with a few issues

good size room themed dinner smiling staff power cut generator situation reserved seating
The room was a good size. It was a double or twin room. the food selection at the restaurant offered different themes for dinners. the staff members were nice and always smiling, even in the hallways. That was really appreciated.
The power cut happened a few times. It was not something i expected. i noticed reserved seating for some guests.

superb hotel experience

first class welcome spacious room amazing view
i REALLY enjoyed this hotel. the welcome was first class and staff treated me with respect. nothing was too much trouble. the location is perfect right by the beautiful blue water with an amazing view. rooms are spacious, clean and air conditioned and had a good size balcony.
the service from the waiters could improve, to be truthful. they all seem nice people but appear to not be trained. drinks orders often took a long time to arrive. the entertainment was not great either

Excellent Adult-Only Getaway!

free water boat connection
The hotel features free drinking water on each floor! I found this service very convenient. The quick boat connection provided transport to Comino Island in just 25 minutes. Public transportation was within a two-minute walk. This made exploring easy.
I had a room overlooking the surrounding area. There was a smell of sewage near the hotel and outside. I believe this came from a pumping station down the coast. It came and went with the wind.
Dining

The buffet offers a rich and varied selection of dishes. Evening entertainment is present to entertain guests. This includes younger ones. Cuisine options at the restaurants are amazing. I found them to be pleasant.

faulty air conditioning inconsistent minibar
I encountered a few issues that dampened my stay. the air conditioning in my room barely functioned. This resulted in discomfort during the hotter parts of the day. i found the minibar was not restocked daily. It was inconvenient as i had to request refills constantly from housekeeping. this lack of attention to detail detracted from what could have been a more satisfying experience.

Solid Choice for Adult Getaway

The outdoor pool had ample loungers. There was also a shaded area for those who prefer to avoid direct sun. I found the on-site restaurants convenient, each offering diverse menus. The live music was a welcome addition to the evenings.
The gym equipment was a bit dated and some machines needed maintenance.
