Top Riverside Hotel Reviews

Ayres Hotel & Spa Moreno Valley

10/10 Excellent

"I choose to stay at Ayres Hotel and Spa in Moreno valley because this property is always clean, well maintained, well appointed, great breakfast ( omelet station is the best!) and if you have any issues with anything, they are promptly handled. The staff is welcoming and take care of our military service members by adjusting breakfast times so they are fueled up for their day. There is a lovely pool and hot tub outside and a small but workable fitness center. They also offer snacks, drinks and other items you may have forgotten right next to the main desk. Our room was serviced daily - unlike many places that have cut back on those special little details. My husband booked a massage and the therapist was very good and gave him suggestions to help him work out his neck issues. Parking is free and plentiful. The hotel is easily accessible to the freeways, restaurants, shopping, and entertainment. I will continue to stay here when I return to the area."

Hyatt Place Riverside Downtown

8/10 Good

"Parking lots were under construction during visit so parking was limited."

The Mission Inn Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Great location. Easy to walk to shopping, food & museums. Nice pool and hot tub that stay open late. Restaurants close at 9pm and no room service after either which was a bummer because the in-room menu indicated there would be late night service and was looking forward to a meal after enjoying the pool. Despite that, overall good stay and would visit again."
