Riva Hill Resort Lankaran

Rooms [8.5/10] I loved the minimalist design of the rooms, which were rather clean and spacious. There was everything you might need need—towels, bed sheet, amenities, AC and a balcony. Dining [9/10] Continental breakfast was excellent with a huge variety of jams, honey, cheese, various egg dishes pancakes and crepes. Most importantly fresh tandoor bread is served straight out of the oven.

Rooms [8.5/10] The only things that was missing was a Kettle and a couple of teabags. Wi-fi connection was poor with RSSI of -70 to -90 dBm. Dining [9/10] I have to say that the pastry was rubbish. There was no Danish pastry, Croissants, Pound cakes or any other breakfast classics. Lunch and Dinner menu was ok, but pricey. Swimming pool [4/10] Towels were provided but not slippers. Music was too loud, but I guess that it is good for those who like to party till sunrise. The area around the pool was limited which forced them to place lounge chairs too close to the water. Most guests demand food and drinks to be served right next to the edge of the pool. The staff is willing to oblige, what they do not realise is that it is dangerous. No swimming coach recommends having a meal during, immediately before or immediately after a swimming practice. Swimming pool is for swimming, not dining and if you really have to dine do it at least 2-3 meters away from the water edge using polycarbonate, wooden or other types of unbreakable tableware. If a glass, a porcelain plate or food drops next to a swimming pool the shards and pieces will surely end up in the water and you won't be able to collect them. One must not disregard essential safety rules simply to please the guests.

Compare to the hotel in the city cenyer which are old and dusty this one is fresh.. well maintained.. we had a warm welcome with a plate of local fruits.. it was raining so i couldn't use the swimming pool but it looked nice Breakfast is very good and local

Nothing

Staff are lovely

The bathroom taps were leaking.

Staff were amazing, breakfast was average.

Only the issue what we faced was that none of the staff speaks English. Apart from communications and location remaining all were fantastic.

ground floor accessible in small wheelchair

music temporarily at a sound level that you cannot hold a conversation at 1 m distance and also in the rooms it is not remarkably better - but if you like continuous disco-music at (ultra) high sound level it’s « the place to be » for you
