The Riverside Hotel's enviable location on Las Olas Boulevard combines the delightful ambiance of restaurants and nightclubs interspersed with art and antique galleries, plus exclusive boutiques.
Location Map
Charming, tree-lined Las Olas is frequented by shoppers, businessmen, visitors and artists at all times of the day, while at night it becomes a romantic wonderland that includes horse-drawn carriage rides similar to those found in Central Park, New York.
Situated on the banks of New River, the Riverside Hotel is only blocks from Fort Lauderdale's central business district. Guests can stroll the mile-long Riverwalk which leads from the pioneer Stranahan House to the acclaimed Broward Center for the Performing Arts, the Museum of Discovery and Science and IMAX Theater, the Fort Lauderdale Museum of Art, and the Broward County Main Library.
