Guests are complimentary about the rooms at the Renaissance Mobile Riverview Plaza Hotel. The rooms are found to be in a good clean condition and feature pleasant extras such as large windows (many overlook the bay) and a good choice of other amenities. Perhaps the only slight negative is that a number of guests found the bathrooms were on the small side.
The staff at this hotel are described as offering a friendly and personable service. Guests often comment that they were addressed by name by everyone from the front desk team to the valet staff. Also, the staff is knowledgeable about the local area and happy to offer advice and recommendations.
The location of this hotel was a highlight for many guests. Being on the waterfront affords easy access to riverside walks. Plus, there is a good choice of shops and restaurants near the hotel. Main attractions are within easy reach.
Several guests mention that the noise of passing trains can be a problem at this hotel. Making matters worse, they seem to be industrial trains with numerous wagons. Plus, in case that doesn't wake you, the drivers often honk their horns to make sure your sleep is disturbed.
Guests sometimes comment that they found the cost of extras at this hotel somewhat prohibitive. Although Wi-Fi is offered for free (unlike at many other Renaissance hotels), you will need to pay extra for breakfast and parking.
A small number of guests were disappointed by the fitness room at the hotel, describing the facility as small and cramped. On the plus side, there is a decent choice of equipment - just perhaps too much for the size of the room.
