RIVA - Das Hotel am Bodensee in Konstanz

Our stay at Riva was a highlight from A to Z. Nice room, attentive service, excellent cuisine in the lakeside restaurant. Our dog was also welcome and felt welcome.

“Our stay at the Hotel Riva in Konstanz was mostly pleasant. Unfortunately the room was quite cold on the first day, but after about 24 hours you could finally relax in a pleasantly warm room. The location of the hotel is really excellent, right on Lake Constance – ideal for walks and views. The staff were very friendly and helpful. A small downside were the beds, which were far too hard for me personally and made sleeping a bit uncomfortable. But overall it was a nice stay and I would still recommend the hotel for the location and service.”

Wonderful hotel right on the lake. The panoramic pool offers a great view, the wellness area is new and very aesthetically and attractively designed. You can also find water and tea here, which also helps you relax. The breakfast leaves nothing to be desired! There is a large buffet and you can order all sorts of egg dishes and hot drinks. We received a room upgrade to the superior room and were very impressed. Large bed, seating area, separate toilet and bathroom and a great balcony with a partial lake view. It was clean throughout! The staff was extremely friendly and helpful, accommodating and appreciative. The only thing we would have found great was a small information brochure with room service options and a map of the hotel (pool, relaxation areas, etc.).

Great hotel with an even better location, great breakfast and great cuisine

How can you annoy a guest as much as possible as soon as they arrive? Ask at Riva! This house's greed for money is omnipresent. Every small request that is considered standard service in hotels of this class is first given a price tag. For example, the request for a 30-minute extension of the check-out time (11 a.m.!!) may not be approved by the front desk. Inquiries to the arrogant manager who doesn't even let himself be seen are answered immediately: Costs 50 EUR. You should be ashamed! In general: check-in time 4 p.m. and check-out time 11 a.m. is also very bold. As a frequent traveler, it once again became clear to me why it is better to stay in renowned hotel chains: there you are honored with status and not treated like a milk cow. A polite question about an upgrade at check-in (all availability available) was immediately dismissed with: we would be happy to sell you a higher room category. A courtesy upgrade is not planned for you.

Super nice, great location, charming team, rooftop pool and deck great!

Is there anything else to add, we look forward to seeing you again soon...

Best place on Lake Constance Service is very important. 7 days in Riva = 7 days of pure relaxation. 7 days = wonderful cuisine and service. Ophelia **^ sends greetings for an evening. Refined taste and excellent service. Everyone, from the very dedicated doorman to the housekeeper, are exceptionally good hosts. All of this is very well managed by a super charming hotelier who received her input from the Salem Castle School and the École hôtelière de Lausanne. Proves THE BEST BEATS. Thank you very much to everyone for the lovely stay.

We wanted to have coffee at RIVA today. However, this time we were told that today it would only be reserved for hotel guests to get coffee and cake. That would be due to a lack of staff. However, there were three service staff behind the bar and there was no observable overload of the staff. You should just keep coming by or call ahead to see if it would be open to other guests that day. It would be like this and sometimes like that. We actually wanted to visit the Riva more often in the future as hotel guests. Now we will look for a hotel where we are welcome for coffee and cake at any time.

Great hotel, great breakfast and the view from the pool terrace was very nice

Perfect hotel with very good service

Wellness break over three nights in a superior double room. Overall, a pleasant break was spent. It's just a shame that the roof pool only has an outside shower.

We had a wonderful stay at the RIVA Hotel. The check-in was flawless and the friendliness of the staff was hard to beat. As a surprise, my companion was presented with a birthday cake at breakfast. They even asked whether it should be brought quietly and calmly or with fireworks. This thoughtful and excellent service takes the RIVA Hotel to another level. We would like to thank you again for this. The art currently on display in the hotel has been excellently selected, it is a pleasure to walk through this hotel. The wellness area is first-class and invites you to relax and take a sauna. The pool on the roof of the hotel was a highlight for us. The cleanliness in the hotel and in the room itself was excellent, you can only feel comfortable here. The location of the hotel is very good, you can reach Konstanz on foot with a wonderful walk along the promenade.

Wir hatten unsere argentinische Verwandtschaft zu Besuch und es war ein würdiges Abschluss Essen. Meine Bergforelle war perfekt und hatte viele raffinierte Geschmackserlebnisse. Auch das Iberico war von der Zubereitung und der Idee außergewöhnlich. Die Dessertkarte hat viele kleine und auch größere Spezialitäten. Und auch der Service … stets präsent freundlich aber unauffällig- für uns eine klare Empfehlung

Compliments to the crew at Riva Hotel. We felt very comfortable and the service was perfect!

We had problems with the rooms. The hotel staff made no effort at all. The breakfast was according to the hotel class, but the atmosphere in the breakfast room was very hectic (staff) and very loud (other guests). With good reason, we left early after one night. We received no refund.

Wonderful hotel! The swimming pool on the roof is awesome and warm!!!! Very friendly staff reception, good cuisine with many guests, sometimes a bit difficult when it comes to the waiting time. Incredibly interesting architecture, we had a sweet old villa with wonderful lake views. Absolutely recommended.

The hotel was a big disappointment. Rooms with rock-hard mattresses and defective ventilation. The cleanliness also left a lot to be desired. Hectic staff in the dining room, quality of food could have been better. The customer is probably more of a nuisance here and is definitely not the focus. 5 stars are not justified. Poor price/performance ratio.

Wonderful place to relax, go for a walk and have very good food, in a very upscale atmosphere. Highly recommended.

Beautiful restaurant with simple and refined German cuisinier. Perfect in summer.

This review is for the restaurant Riva. Lovely setting by the lake, really excellent service. Came back after a year, I was delighted to find the restaurant got even better!!! Mushroom soup was superb, skate fish filet amazing! It is totally worth a short trip over from Switzerland for a superb meal!. It is almost impossible to find a restaurant that ticks all the boxes in ZH at this price level.

At the moment we are still building something and expanding it (in part), but the location, the staff and the food are very good.

I have been staying in this fantastic hotel for a few days every now and then for over 20 years. Last but not least, it was always unobtrusive, but always courteous and friendly Staff who made the stay an experience. My family and I are already looking forward to our next visit to Lake Constance.

Restaurant Terrace: The service is a disaster except for the experienced staff. Cold club sandwiches and overpriced drinks, tables are full of dishes and the staff often runs back and forth empty-handed. The overview is completely missing. It is incomprehensible that a high-priced 5 star hotel does not react to this - and the situation has existed for a long time. The time between 4 p.m. and 6 p.m. is not exactly inviting on the terrace.

Only applies to the restaurant We were there for a big family dinner with 16 people in the summer: very good food, fantastic location by the lake and big compliments to Mr. Lipchenko, who gave us excellent hospitality!

We have been guests in this beautiful hotel several times and now had the great opportunity to celebrate our wedding here. In our opinion, this hotel is simply perfect and we love the relaxed atmosphere so much. Anyone looking for outstanding service, a first-class location and a stylish ambience with a view of Lake Constance will have a great time here. A very big thank you goes especially to the banquet service team and the management for making this exciting day an unforgettable experience for us.

Nach längerer Zeit waren wir mal wieder im Seerestaurant RIVA zum Lunch. Nach wie vor alles chic und die Bauarbeiten endlich vorbei. Unsere Reservierung war auf 12.30 Uhr, die Küche öffnet aber erst auf 13.00 Uhr. Wir hatten ein herrliches Plätzchen auf der Terrasse in vorderster Front und wurden sehr zuvorkommend bedient. Die Sitzmöbel könnten etwas komfortabler mit einem Rückenkissen ausgestattet werden. Das Züricher Geschnetzelte ging leider unter in einer undefinierbaren Sauce, die Rösti waren prima, ebenso das Fischgericht. Auch der Tiramisu Eisbecher ein Gedicht! Immer wieder ein besonderer Ort am See in Konstanz mit einer leicht abfallenden Küchenleistung!

Ein wunderschönes Restaurant. Tolles Ambiente. Service und Essen bleiben weiterhin ausbaufähig und sind leider nicht auf dem Niveau was man erwarten würde.

Very nice stay! The terrace is very nice and the ice cream cafes were very tasty.

Very much enjoyed a stay of two nights. Everything was modern and impecably clean. Breakfast was magnificent! The rooftop pool was refreshing and welcome. The views across the Bodensee were spectacular. Highly recommended place to stay in Konstance.

Super clean rooms, service was amazing, breakfast was out of this world! Dinner ? well just be ready for what I thought was very high prices for what you got and to charge 9€ for a bottle of water was outrageous. Told the wife do not want to know the cost of the room 😳

Beautiful hotel! The hotel is simply fantastic, the service is unique and the breakfast is currently number 1 for me 😌 I will definitely stay here again 😊

The worst thing is that everything is dirty, the staff is not happy. A dead mouse was found in the room

This is terrible, 2 flies swam in my soup, they were still alive

I was there for one night at an event and have to give high praise. Whether location, rooms or cleanliness, this hotel impresses on all levels.

For the context: I follow a diet (inspired by Bryan Johnson) which is: One meal a day. I typically go for an early dinner. And I am here in the hotel Riva with my kids. We have to get up early, 6.45, to get to school on time. I had ordered a starter (Vitello Tonnato, very small portion) and a main course (asparagus with potatoes and Schnitzel). As per convention and and old German rule, it is 500g per asparagus per person. This equals to 12-16 sticks. My portion was 5 (!) average sized sticks, together with a few ultra small potatoes (nice taste, but tiny) and a tiny Schnitzel (maybe 50g of meat). Well, it is also a habit in German speaking region that you are served only a portion and you are offered more. In good restaurants they come serve another round, in less fancy places you might ask for another round. So I was concerned, but not yet nervous. All those who go for gourmet food and know about table manners would know: Crossing the fork and knife means: "I am not done, I am still eating". Which I prominently did with my empty plate. The problem is: I cannot possibly complain, as my little girls get really distressed, they are very harmony loving, so saying something is simply not our style. I was ignored - the plate was gone and that's it. I used the opportunity when my kids went to the bathroom. I hinted to the waiter that I would really appreciate some more food, the portion was very small. But the waiter did not understand me (a charming person, but with limited German skills, I understand getting German or even English speaking personell is an issue in many places in Europe). Well, a little later, I was offered a dessert. Which I refused, I am not eating desserts. And I pointed out that I am still really hungry, but it would need to be a main dish. The portions were very small. This scared the waiter away (I really tried to be extremely sweet, as not to confuse my little girls). No reaction, no more food supply. So I felt like "if you pay 40 Euros for a portion, this might be gourmet style, which means you have only one right: The right to starve". Which I did, I went to bed hungry, discretely left a note on the bill that I do not agree with charging a full price for less than half a portion... but nobody got back with me since. I also punished the waiter with a 5 Euro tip only (which I believe is a strong symbol of utter discontent), but I received a smile, a thank you and off he went with the bill and my note left on the bill. I had seriously considered ordering Pizza to the room, but I was simply too busy bringing the kids to bed. Also it would need to be arranged with the hotel, and I felt like I might get scolded for gluttony. So I had a beer from the (free) mini bar to soothe my hunger and actually could not fall asleep with so much hunger for some time. Then, at 21:30 the turndown service knocked at the door... and brought some sweets which I - against all dietery discipline - ate with great anxiety. But anyway, it's the next day, so all good. I survived the starvation camp. I had spent some years in the army, so I am trained and at least many years back was accustomed to deprivation (only that I am paying 1.500 for 2 nights + dinner here, and I got the same amount for a month of military service back then). Now I have to wait until 18.00, but I will be in a different hotel tonight, and hopefully there's no militant: You're in a gourmet place, so starve to death policy. Actually I just checked with a friend: It's good portions, and I can catch up on what I missed yesterday. I do not mind ultra-small portions, especially in Ophelia (the other restaurant, which is a 2 Michelin star place). The difference is: We are talking about a 7-course dinner, with plenty of time and, just in case, opportunity to beg for some bread (actually begging is not required, the waiters are well trained). For me the question still remains: - Peter Kolb, is this your policy and people are "just following orders"? - Kevin Berlet, is this your idea about trying to also get a Michelin star? By serving Michelin star sized portions for a single course main dish? - or is it an untrained waiter, who lacks proper training and instructions? Next time, I will only book Riva hotel, when I have enough time. Either to go to Ophelia restaurant (a 3 hour luxury experience), or to go to Riva and for a Donor Kebap in town after dinner (which probably can be done in 2 hours).

I don't want to make any judgments about the rooms, service or location. The only time we were outside guests was during a thunderstorm and had a glass of wine! But you should take a look at the menu beforehand so that you don't get a surprise when you pay for 2 glasses of Pinot Blanc (it would have been better to have the original bottle and vintage come to the table to judge!) good 32 euros!!! pays, and it's not even of any special quality!

It's like coming home... over the years the staff has changed and expanded - but the standard of expectations is always maintained - you want the BEST. I don't think it's a children's family hotel. There's no peace and quiet at the top of the pool - it gets loud. No go. Relax = rest. The kitchen is great. Service could do more. Be more careful.....Spa is not an experience - massages are available..... It always gets better - of course you compare with top hotels where SPA simply IS SPA.

Great location, nice restaurant, nice service but today 2022 the fish curry was sweet, unsalted, no pepper or chilli. The chef talks his way out of mango curry, there's nothing of mango on the plate and there's red chilli paste in it!!! Just admit it was wrong! Fish ♓️ and shrimp 🦐 perfect!! We will be back!! Enjoyed an absolutely great brook trout menu in 2024…

It doesn't get any better. Perfect location: right on the lake, 15 minutes walk to the old town. Great service, great food, a breakfast that couldn't be more perfect, wonderful rooms and the hit is the 28 degree rooftop pool with bar.

A nice hotel directly on Lake Constance. Everything was very good during our stay at the Riva again. All the employees were again very friendly and always helpful. With the Ophelia**, the hotel has an outstanding gourmet restaurant, which alone is worth a trip.

Good 5 star hotel, amazing location on Lake Constance, score 4 out of 5. Location - right on the lake, 15 minutes walk to the old city, score 5 Rooms - I booked a Premier room, the room is large and pleasant to use, excellent shower, clean, equipped with all the necessary accessories for a 5 star hotel, score 5. Breakfast - reasonable, without a great variety, a bit disappointing, I would have expected a higher standard. Grade 3.5. Pool - is on the roof on the 4th floor, heated to 26 degrees only, not pleasant to use when it's cool outside. Grade 4. Spa - small and not so useful. Grade 2 Service - excellent, score 5

A dream of a hotel. Always my pleasure. If only the service was better organized, there would be even more praise.

More luxurious than others and its proximity to the lake gave it a special atmosphere to enjoy

This restaurant has a location that is great. On a beautiful promenade... In Konstanz they say “see and be seen”. :-)) The food, cake and coffee at lunchtime taste very good. Toilet is very clean and elegant. I would have liked to give it 5 stars, but you wait forever for service.

Staff was very welcoming, rooms were spacious, clean and very well furnished. Location on the side of the lake is ideal. Thank you, we will be back !

The stay at the Riva Hotel on Lake Constance was incredibly nice. We had a room on the first floor with a large balcony and a view of Lake Constance. The room was spacious and clean. The minibar was included in the price. The bathroom was very nice and modernly decorated. We particularly liked the heated pool on the roof terrace, which was open until 10 p.m. Equipped with LEDs, everything could be seen even in the dark. Check-in was quick and the receptionist helped us carry our luggage and showed us the room. We'd love to come back!

Interior beautiful Rooms nice/bright/comfortable beds Great view of the lake Location top Clean Great decoration Pool nice Service: incomprehensible Unfriendly Inattentive Unfocused Uncouth Lost for words Never experienced anything like this in a 5 star hotel

Wir waren heute Zum Mittagessen dort. Die Lage und Ambiente sind toll. Preis-Leistung seitens des Essens passt nicht wirklich. Obwohl sehr viele Servicekräfte da sind, lässt der Service doch recht zu wünschen übrig. Zu viert keinen einzigen der jeweils drei Gänge von uns einigermaßen zeitgleich zu bekommen, sollte man von einem Restaurant in dieser Preisliga erwarten dürfen. Vielleicht hatten sie auch einen schlechten Tag?….

The hotel has a nice modern interior design. They provide you all facilities you need. The place is surrounded by nice quiet environment with the beautiful view of lake. The staff is service-minded, friendly and responsive. We have a very pleasant stay. Thank you so much

Super nice and helpful and a great location . The bar is always worth a visit.

Location and food 5 stars, the service leaves a lot to be desired. The ladies in service lack service knowledge and, above all, commitment. We had to wait over 50 minutes for our food with hardly any customers. After repeatedly asking about the bill, the lady came running after another 20 minutes after we wanted to take our own initiative and pay directly to the manager. The demand for the menu also took ages, so we had to take the initiative and get it ourselves, which shouldn't be part of the daily routine in a 5 star restaurant. All in all the food was very tasty although the wrong one arrived after 50 minutes on the first delivery. The manager should check his staff better before hiring them.

Wir waren gestern anlässlich der Examensfeier unseres Sohnes zu Gast. Die negativen Bewertungen sind für mich nicht nachvollziehbar. Von der sehr freundlichen Begrüßung in der Lobby und im Restaurant waren wir angetan. Der Service ließ keine Wünsche offen. Zum Hauptgang hatten wir zweierlei vom Hirsch sowie den Kabeljau. Alles sehr innovativ zubereitet sowie angerichtet. Mehr kann ich in dieser Preisklasse nicht erwarten. Macht weiter so, wir kommen gerne wieder!

Für uns eines der schönsten Hotels am Bodensee. Top Service, einzigartige Lage, schöne Zimmer und hervorragendes Essen.

Gewollt aber nicht gekonnt, so lässt sich der Abend beschreiben. Selten so eine schlechte Schnitzel Panade bekommen. Diese sollte bei diesem sehr hohen Preis wenigstens in Butterschmalz ausgebacken sein. Auch die anderen Speisen wurden entweder zu kalt oder nur lauwarm serviert. Viel zu teuer für das Gebotene. Muss man nicht gewesen sein…..

Das Riva ist ein tolles Hotel, sehr edel und gutes Essen. Das einzige was mir fehlt ist die Hintergrundmusik beim Essen/ Restaurant. Sobald es etwas still wird, ist eine komische Atmosphäre zum sprechen. Weil dann das Gefühl aufkommt das alle einem zuhören.

Es geht…. Der Kellner war super freundlich und hat sich mega Mühe gegeben und sich hervorragend um uns gekümmert. Für den Service gibt es 5 Sterne. Allerdings hatte man das Gefühl, dass das Essen lieblos zubereitet wurde so Mensa/Kantine Level vom Geschmack… die Gerichte hören sich alle mega spannend an aber was dann auf dem Teller landet ist weniger spektakulär. Ich verstehe das der Staat die Steuer jz auch im Restaurant erhöht hat aber die Preis/Leistung bzw. Preis/Portion passt nicht. Alles in einem schönes Restaurant und guter Service aber an dem Konzept muss der Chefkoch noch arbeiten. Wenn man so ein schickes Restaurant besucht erwartet man, dass das Essen auch stimmt schließlich ist das ja die Hauptsache! Für die Location gibt es auch 5 Sterne. Wenn der Chefkoch sein Konzept etwas überdenkt oder etwas dazu lernt dann komm ich gerne wieder :)

Vom Ausblick will ich gar nicht anfangen zu schwärmen. Ein Traum!

Sehr schönes Hotel. Perfekter Standort. Wünsche werden umgehend erfüllt.

Wir waren zum Lunch dort essen. Die Bedienung war sehr nett. Beim Essen stimmte das Preisleistungsverhältnis leider für uns nicht. Es war ok, wir hatten Schnitzel und Muscheln- nichts besonderes. Zur Aussicht können wir nix sagen, trotzdem das wir als erstes da waren, sassen wir sehr weit weg vom Fenster.

Tolles Hotel, mit sehr gutem Service

Eine wunderschöne Bar, direkt am See, genial für einen Sonntagabend Schlummi mit sehr gutem Wein!

Wenn der Wurm drin ist.... Freundlich begrüsst und herzlich zurück willkommen geheissen, obwohl noch nie da.... wenn man selbst nicht merkt, dass die vorhandenen Personendaten aufgrund der vor zwei Tagen versandten Mail da sind... dasselbe dann auf der Begrüssungskarte im Zimmer. Nett gemeint und an sich eine schöne Geste. Fernseher hatte kein Signal, es stellte sich dann heraus, dass das Antennenkabel falsch eingestöpselt war. Eine Lampe liess sich nicht ausschalten. Es stellte sich heraus, dass sie nicht an der geschalteten Steckdose angeschlossen war, sondern an der normalen nebenan. Beim Frühstück bereits 45 Minuten vor Ende praktisch keine Brötchen und Croissants mehr da, kamen auch praktisch keine mehr, obwohl immer noch neue Gäste dazukamen. Und beim Auschecken dann sehr lange auf die ausgedruckte Rechnung und das Auto gewartet. Ich hoffe, das war jetzt einfach mal "dumm gelaufen", weil das Hotel ansonsten einen sehr schönen Eindruck macht. Vielleicht versuchen wir es nochmals...

Tolles Ambiente, freundliche Kellner und sehr leckeren Kuchen.

Das Personal im Seerestaurant ist einmalig gut.

Wir hatten uns sehr auf den Geburtstag unseres Freundes gefreut, der einen schönen Tisch im Garten für 4 Personen reserviert hatte. Beim Eintreffen "mässiger Empfang"... dann am sehr schön gedeckten Tisch mit weissem Tischtuch in der wohl schönsten See-Terrasse in Konstanz. Dann der Service in Turnschuhen und "fast in Strassenkleidern" absolut NICHT auf Gäste eingestellt... Empfehlung sehr träge, die Speisen im Niveau eines "Durchschnitt-Restaurants", angerichtet ebenso... ABSOLUT KEIN Erlebnis... Die zweite Flasche Wein konnte nicht serviert werden... da sie "ausgegangen sei"... und am Schluss, nach der Bezahlung der Rechnung, wurde ein kleine Platte mit aufgeschnittenen Biskuit-Teilen OHNE Kommentar auf den Tisch gestellt... Der Oberkellner kam am Schluss kurz vorbei und fragte: "Ob alles in Ordnung sei"... war aber wieder schnell weg war, so dass wir keinen Kommentar abgeben konnten... In dem Sinn gibt es (ausser der herrlichen Gartenlage) wesentlich bessere Restaurants in Konstanz. Wir werden sicher nicht mehr dort einkehren.

Wunderschöne, sonnige Aussenterrasse am Bodensee. Gutes Lunch und Kuchen. Hotel ist wunderbar renoviert worden. Top.

Nehmt das Schnitzel oder die sehr gut gegarten Steaks. Da passt alles. Ob die neu gestaltete „Cabonara“ gefällt, mir eher nicht hat wenig mit dem Original zu tun …. Ambiente und Personal sind top, auch die Weinauswahl prima.

Leider hat man im Riva Restaurant aus allen vorrausgehenden Kritiken nichts gelernt. Wir hatten für 6 Personen mit 2 Wochen Vorlauf ein Geburtstags Abendessen im Außenbereich angemeldet und baten um etwas Dekoration zum Anlass. Erste Verstimmung entstand durch eine unbrauchbare Riva-Angabe über verfügbare Anlegemöglichkeit mit dem Privatboot. Dann war der zugesagte Tisch auf der Terrasse nicht verfügbar. Ein eiligst hergerichteter Tisch ohne Tischdecke !! ohne ein kleinstes, festliches Deko, wurde im Innenbereich zugewiesenen. Aus der - wie von anderen Gästen schon berichtet - minimaler, wenig attraktiver Speisekarte wurde geordert. Wir mussten mit der fadenscheinigen Ausrede einer vorweg servierten Suppe auf ein Standardgericht Risotto / Zürcher Geschnetzeltes - wie auch andere anwesende Gäste - fast eine Stunde warten bis uns der Appettit vergangen war. Was dann bei uns serviert wurde war total versalzen und "matschig" gekocht. Das Fleisch schwamm unappetitlich wie in einer undefinierbaren Suppen-Sahne Sauce auf dem Teller. Das schwer zu verstehende Servicepersonal stellte die Speisen einfach ab ohne ein Anzeichen servieren zu wollen. Der "Müller-Thurgau Hauswein" wurde in 0,2 Portionen zu extrem überteuertem Preis dazu geliefert. Alles war so unerfreulich dass wir jede Lust auf Nachtisch, oder sogar Kaffe verloren hatten. Der Riva Aufenthalt hat 6 Personen jedes Geburtstagsgefühl geraubt. Wir kommen selbst aus gastronomischem Umfeld, aber ein solch enttäuschendes Preis-/Leistungs-/Qualitäts-/Service Verhältnis haben wir in vielen Jahren nicht erlebt. Unser Resümee: Nie wieder. 13.07.2023

und wieder: Tolle Leistung des RIVA Teams an einem herrlichen Sommertag im herrlichen Garten. Feine Weine aus Baden-Würtemberg (Alte Rebe und Rose Nonnenhorn), Artischocke Spitzenklasse, Thuna Sashimi, Zander. Alles perfekt und guter Service, wir kommen wieder!

Noch immer nicht schlecht, aber Lokal serviert Mittagessen erst ab 12:30 h, dann pressiert es. Speiseangebot für ein 5* Hotelrestaurant dürftig, langweilig und ewig das gleiche Angebot. Serviceleistung variiert zwischen kühler Routine und gut.

Das Hotel Riva ist seit vielen Jahren mein absoluter Favorit. Sehr stilvoll eingerichtet, von A - Z stimmt einfach alles. Das Essen, ob im Restaurant Ophelia oder im Seerestaurant, ist auf sehr hohem Niveau. Die Aussenterrasse mit Sicht auf den schönen Bodensee ist einzigartig. Das Personal ist sehr zuvorkommend, sehr herzlich und stets sehr bemüht. Ich komme sehr gerne immer wieder!

Wir waren zu viert zum lunch , der Service und die Kellnerinnen waren Höflich und Aufmerksam , DAS war es aber auch schon . Das Essen ( Jakobsmuschel, Vorspeise , beinhaltete 1 Muschel und eine halbe Muschel in der Grösse von einem Euro , mit Grapefruit für 19 Euro . Hautspeise Linguine mit Trüffel , serviert wurde , glibberige Pasta mit hundert Tomatenstücke und obenauf 4 angeblich frische Trüffelscheibchen, Weder frisch über die Pasta , Wie es sich gehört. Wir haben es mitgeteilt aber ausser Rausreden kam nichts bei um . Zwei von uns haben unser Essen komplett stehen gelassen , Ungenießbar , aber verrechnet ! Für Wein auf der Terrasse schön aber mehr auch nicht !

Wir waren zur Übernachtung in diesem schönen Hotel. Am Nachmittag sitzt man sehr schön Draussen in der Sonne. Sehr schönes Ambiente. Thunfisch war ok, nicht mehr. Karte für Mittag/Nachmittag ist die selbe wie für den Abend, wenig Auswahl/Besonders für ein solches Hotel (Burger, Züricher Geschnetzeltes, Spagetti…). Wenig raffiniert, auch vom Anrichten her - Creme Brulee - blanco!? . Fachkraftmangel leider spürbar.

Blitzsauber , sehr gutes Essen , gutes Personal . Zimmer Service hervorragend 6 Sterne Herzlichen Dank an das gesamte Team

Wunderbarer Maiabend, sehr schöner Blick auf Ufer und See. Leider aber die Speisekarte uninteressant , Bodenseefischgericht lebsch ohne jeden Pfiff, das Züricher Geschnetzelte.auch nur Hausmannskost. Als wir auf die Frage, wie es uns geschmeckt hat, ehrlich antworteten, kam es zu einer Diskussion, die ein unangenehmes Gefühl hinterließ.

Das Essen ist gut, aber die Karte ist recht einfallslos und die Mahlzeiten sind teilweise mengenmässig einfach zu wenig, obwohl ich kein > Gourmand < bin. Die Vorspeisen sind zu teuer für das Gebotene. Man sitzt gut im schönen Restaurant und der Service ist leider schwankend. Störend sind die neuen Öffnungszeiten: Mittagessen erst ab 13:00 h, da ist man dann erst ca. 14:30 h fertig. Unverständlich !
