River Park Hotel & Suites

Not as it looks

The room was far smaller than it appeared in the pic's online. The check-in and check-out service was very slow and there was no line. An there was no mention of the $25.00 a night parking fee anywhere on the web site. costing me $100.00 I hadn't plan on spending. Not satisfied at all.

no recommendation

although the hotel is situated downtown and neighboured to the Miami Metromover I don't recommend the hotel. The rooms are clean (except the windows). The bar is closed so beverages are only available at vending machines. The front desk has no dollar bills for the vending machines. Valet parking (25$ per night) can only paid with cash, but not at front desk.

Outstanding Hotel

GREAT

RIVER PARK HOTEL IS SUCK!!!!

*BAD MANAGEMENT. *BAD SERVICE IN COUNTER. *ROOMS NEED UPGRADE. *BREAKFAST VERY VERY POOR. * NO PARKING FOR GUEST. * MAIN ENTRANCE STINK. I NEVER , EVER COME BACK TO THAT HOTEL....

Hotel is ok for the money however

Please note that there is no parking at the hotel and no parking close by so you will have to pay $twenty five per night to the valet company stationed in hotel lobby to park your car, which increases the price enough to put it in the category of a pricier hotel, which it is not. Location is great but hotel condition is extremely run down.

Scooby Doo Hotel

It is a very interesting place. It used to be a very expensive resort that was converted into a cheap hotel. That mean that the fancy decorations (along with the rugs) are worn out. The lobby is full of sculptures of lions, a fat lady, etc. It seems to be haunted. The rooms are clean and the hotel employees are nice. The morning of the check-out, the cleaning ladies walk into the room (shortly after knocking) to see when are we going to leave. Make sure you lock the door with the secondary lock. Everybody is forced to pay an extra $2/night because they have a security box. Most people get angry at that because is not mentioned on the hotel information. The location is OK. It is right in front of the "People Mover" (a free rail within downtown Miami). There are good restaurants in the area. However, the sidewalks in the area are not necessarily safe. The larger rooms are much nicer than the smaller ones. It is worth paying a little bit more. Every room is different, and has different furniture. Some rooms have rusted fridges that doesn't work. There is a gym hiding on the 3rd floor. It only has a stationary bike, a treadmill and a step climber that doesn't work.

Great room for the money

Enjoy view across channel watching tug boats, clean room, bed a bit uncomfortable, but was overall a nice stay.

Always remember, you get what you pay for.

I've stayed at this hotel before but it was only one night and it was fine. It was clean and a good place to lay my head. This time I stayed for 3 nights and it really sucked this time. First our keys kept de magnitizing. Most of us had to request bath towels and wash clothes. I think they are getting over by insisting that you have to pay for a lock box weather you want it or not $2.50 per night. The shuttle service they provided was very good and reasonable. The pool area was very nice. Continental breakfast was a joke they shouldn't have it at all. The front desk staff and breakfast server sucked they need people training. Uhm thats all for now.

Needs Improvements

Was there for a trade show at the convention center. Took a cab to the hotel. Had no resturant and the "Continental Breakfast" consisted of a roll and coffee. Didn't have cups, stationary and wasn't clean.

No parking space

everything is ok, but I did not like the fact that you have to pay 25 dollars everyday for parking space

Terrible! Emergency alarm went off, had to evacuate hotel!

I don't even know where to start!!! The hotel might have been nice on the 90's BUT..... its 2009!!! Paid for king size suite, got standard room queen. So, filthy!!! Hair all over the bathroom. While taking a shower the water would not drain. No complimentary newspaper "as advertised" Etc.......... But none of what I have mentioned before was the worst that happened...... How do you feel about being woken up by an "emergency alarm" telling you to stop what you are doing and get out of the building NOT USING ELEVATORS, when you are on the 14th floor???? I guess it would be OK if there was an actual emergency going on, but what about... "Oh, they were just doing some maintenance work and they activated the alarm. I am so sorry, you can now go back to your room!!!! **@#! Are you serious??? **Keep out**

I kept tellling myself I'm only sleeping here.

This was a difficult hotel to locate in downtown Miami. To my surprise when I arrived the front entrance was under construction so I was not able to pull in to the front of the hotel, but had to pull over to the side of a very busy road. I was not told about any other options to park my vehicle other than their valet parking which was $25.00 per day. An unexpected expense for me. The drapes in my room were not working. I was unable to open them and they had tears in them as well. The view I had was the the roof top of the floor below me and a parking garage. Upon my departure I discovered there beautiful water views on the other side of the hotel. Over all I was not pleased at all and would not return.
