I like the cleanliness of the rooms but it was really cold and took a long time to warm up. In floor heating would have improved my stay.

A gem in the heart of Port Alberni, tucked away a hop skip and jump from the lake. Room was quaint, charming and most importantly CLEAN. Very happy that we chose a locally owned business.

This was our second time staying at Riverside. This time we were a group of three and we opted for a cottage. It was super spacious and comfortable, with everything we could possibly need. It’s also a very short walk from Twin City Brewing and a (slow but free) EV charger

What a terrific little motel! Travelled to Port Alberni for a weekend trip with my sister and daughter and to do the Lady Rose Ferry ride to Bamfield. We stayed 2 nights and the rooms were so comfy. Great location for some good restaurants. Highly recommend! Would definitely go back!

We were so pleasantly surprised by this cute little motel. Impeccably clean grounds and room, spacious suite with newer decor/fixtures. Great laundry facilities and easy parking for RV’s in the church parking lot next door. Would definitely stay again.
