The hotel, staff etc were excellent. It's a beautiful hotel wonderfully situated. The breakfast was excellent. My only surprise was that it didn't do evening meals, so you have to go out to eat, but there is a pub in close walking distance that does.

The hotel has been fully refurbished to a very high standard and is located in a quiet area of Salisbury. Yet it is within easy walking distance of the City, plus there is plenty of free parking on site ! The only downside is that Dinner is not available at the hotel. However a free shuttle service is provided into the City Centre. Would definitely recommend the Riverside Hotel for a City break.

The breakfast menu was excellent. The room was better than when we last stayed. Great views and spotlessly clean. Best of all were the staff. They were all so friendly and helpful. Parking was good and the complimentary minibus into town is brilliant (with a very friendly driver).
