My wife and I had stayed at the Peninsula Riverside apartments previously in their 1 bedroom apartments and had been thoroughly impressed so when it was time for another staycation we readily booked here again. This time however it was with our 2 children and our experience was radically different. Besides from the executive suites, no other family-sized apartments had outside views, which while disappointing, was communicated on their website prior to us booking. We did request a particular room layout upon booking, and while we understand this cannot always be guaranteed, there was no communication from the hotel that we would not be receiving this. Also, while technically we could fit all of us into their “family suite”, it was far from spacious. You can definitely see this hotel prioritizes couples and those willing to pay for their highest priced rooms over all others. Also, in terms of the room layout, only being able to access the single bathroom by going through the master bedroom is not ideal for those with children. On the topic of bathrooms, a door between the toilet and bathroom would be appreciated, as they are separated by a door from this is clearly possible. Overall, good location let down by very claustrophobic rooms, limited ventilation, no views, and a poorly laid out room cannot be given anything more than 3 stars.
