Really lovely hotel with incredibly friendly and welcoming staff. We were greeted on arrival and shown to our room, as well as being given two tokens to use for drinks at the bar. The room was spacious with a comfy bed and nice view out over the river. The hotel is very close to the centre of Salisbury - a pleasant 10 minute walk through some quiet backstreets. On one of the nights we ordered a takeaway to the hotel (as they don't have an evening restaurant), and the staff were very accommodating, supplying us with plates, napkins and cutlery. You can even eat at a table in the restaurant if you want to. Our only complaint was a noise issue from a neighbouring room. I was very impressed with the hotel's response to this - both the reception staff and manager listened to my concerns and were able to resolve them. Overall it is a very friendly and welcoming hotel, set in beautiful grounds with ample parking and easy access into Salisbury.

Had a wonderful short stay at The Riverside with a lovely breakfast each morning. The location and hotel itself was lovely, as too were the staff. Mandy was brilliant every morning at breakfast, always making sure we had what we needed, and Gabi on reception was was brilliant; at hand to answer any questions I had. Can’t wait to stay again, thank you!

Lovely hotel with scenic grounds and garden. Nice rooms, bar and great service with mini bus service into and back from town. The rooms were lovely but very expensive given how thin the walls are and the noise that you hear from other guests. I heard every word clearly from the room next door when they came in late at 2am and talked until 3. I would not pay £185 a room per night for that again.

Came here for a one night stay while we were having a meal in Salisbury. The hotel is easy to find with plenty of parking. Friendly woman on reception checked us in very quickly and showed us to our room and gave us 2 complimentary drinks tokens to be exchanged at the bar - a really nice little touch, much like the complimentary minibus shuttle service into the town centre. 2 things that I’ve not had at any other hotel - only small things but they do make you feel welcomed. The bedrooms are nice and quiet, my only slight issue with the room we had (room 1) is that the air conditioning wasn’t working, and the shower was awkward to use due to the sloped ceiling restricting headroom. It wouldn’t prevent me coming back though and if I was in Salisbury again I would definitely stay here again.

The place is gorgeous, the room is tiny but so well laid out. It has everything you need you can control room temperature. The continental breakfast was lovely and staff it’s very friendly.The only down side is probably the cleanliness. The toilet clearly had leaks from previous visitor, shower head does not fit and is just hanging there, plus the cob nets on the curtains..

They do bed and breakfast, but no evening meals. They run a free shuttle service each evening into the town where there are many fabulous restaurants. Unfortunately, on our last night, an outside group had booked a catered noisy Christmas party at the establishment which kept us awake. The dining room was reset obviously for another party the following night(s). The priority concern should have been the guests already in situ. This is an example of mission creep"

It’s difficult to imagine a nicer place to stay in Salisbury. An impeccably clean boutique hotel, an attractive building, and a general relaxed atmosphere.Go for a river view room if you can - the views over the Rivers Avon and Nadder are superb, and are overlooked by the spire of Salisbury Cathedral. Yet, despite being a short walk from the centre, the hotel was very quiet.From the moment we arrived, we were impressed - a staff member led us to our room while offering to carry our suitcases. That continued with other services offered - a free minibus to take hotel guests into the centre at evening, and the option to have staff make your reservations for hotels in town.Breakfast was very good - while there is no evening meal at the hotel, we did have coffee and cake at the bar in the afternoon, which was superb. We’ll definitely return.

The location is what this hotel trades on as our room was okay for two nights but at the price it was not perfect. Why have an over the bath shower when a walk in shower would have been much better. We were staying on probably one of the hottest September weekends of the year and with only a very small and dusty room fan it left a lot to be desired. Aircon is being installed but not commissioned yet! There is no restaurant but you can get breakfast. A shuttle transport into town usually runs in the evening but was out of action on our first night there. Staff were helpful and friendly.

Fantastic hotel. Location is great, only a 10 minute walk to the cathedral and a few minutes more to the town centre. In the evening there is a free taxi service if you don’t want to walk. Great view of garden, river, sheep and cathedral from bar terrace or bedroom if you choose river view.Spotlessly clean too. Very friendly staff, helped us to carry cases to our room.Perfect stay - thank you!
