I really loved the stay here! Staff were nice and friendly and helped a lot. As FYI the bathrooms are a bit small and the showers are a little confusing but other than that we had an excellent stay here. Would definitely come back again!

Riviera Beach House is a boutique hotel right in the Funk Zone. The rooms are small, but beds are comfortable and they have made great use of the limited space. We paid for a king room with a patio and when we got to the hotel, all of the patio rooms were under unexpected construction. Management went above and beyond to make sure we were satisfied with the options they presented and checked in frequently to make sure we were enjoying our stay. We will definitely be back!

Location is good but way overpriced. Super small rooms, kicked my shin on the bed frame multiple times, I could hear people coming and going super early. If it was way cheaper, I would have been ok, but for the price? No.

This hotel is in the perfect location for visiting the Funk Zone. Literally walk downstairs and you're within a few blocks of everything you'd want to do. Futhermore, the hotel itself is top quality with beautiful rooms and a large, modern yet welcoming lobby. All the staff I encountered were fantastic, no matter what time of day. The only complaint I have is that the bathrooms in the rooms are a little annoying. There is no closable bathroom door, only a translucent glass door that's open at the top and bottom like a designer bathroom stall. All sound from in the bathroom can be heard outside the bathroom, whether you'd like that or not. Furthermore, while the bedroom has a wonderful blackout curtain, the bathroom does not. And with an open glass door separating the bathroom window from the rest of the room, the blackout curtain in the bedroom becomes useless. Overall this one of the best hotels I've ever stayed at in every way, with one of the oddest "designer" bathrooms I've ever seen.
