Bottom Line

With a location on the Necanicum River, a two-minute walk from downtown Seaside and one block from the convention center, Rivertide Suites is a good choice for both business and leisure travelers. The 70-room, all-suite property has the comforts of home -- like a seating area, kitchen, electric fireplace, and balcony in each room -- but the look is that of a corporate apartment. Features include a small fitness center and an indoor pool and hot tub. Continental breakfast and an evening manager's reception are both free. Travelers looking for more of a traditional hotel stay on the river will want to check out the River Inn at Seaside.

Oyster Hotel Review

Rivertide Suites Hotel

Scene

Cozy and inviting lobby

Rivertide Suites has stately gray siding with white trim and balconies that overlook either the river or the parking lot. Wooden benches and potted flowers flank the entrance. Inside, the lobby is comfy and inviting with a large stone fireplace, flat-screen TV, and coffee station. Plush gray sofas and chairs provide places to sit. There's a nautical theme showcased by a captain's wheel above the fireplace and statues of seagulls on the wood bookshelves. A nightly manager's reception is available here, and there's an adjacent breakfast room set with wooden tables and chairs.

Location

Riverfront and a two-minute walk to the center of Seaside. 

Rivertide Suites is situated on the shores of the Necanicum River. It's a two-minute walk from downtown Seaside which has plenty of shopping and dining and is just a block from the convention center, so the hotel's location is convenient for both business and leisure travelers. The Seaside Aquarium is a five-minute walk away. Beach bums beware: though the beach is less than a mile away, most will want to drive to the ocean. Travelers who want a beachfront location and don't mind being a short drive from town will want to check out Lanai on the Cove. Parking at Rivertide Suites is free and ample.

Rooms

Suites with private balconies and nice bathrooms

Studio, One-Bedroom, and Two-Bedroom Suites make up the 70 all-suite accommodations at Rivertide Suites. Room decor is neutral and uniform, with a corporate feel that's a bit soulless. Think: beige walls, beige carpet, and gray sofas topped with orange and yellow throw pillows. Built-in white bookcases are lined with fake plants and a few hardcover books. Full kitchens (with stoves, ovens, and refrigerators), private balconies, and electronic fireplaces are nice touches, though some balconies overlook the parking lot and not the river. Even the Studio bathrooms include double sinks and separate bathtubs and showers. Spa-grade toiletries are presented on a tray on the vanity counter.

Features

Free breakfast, indoor pool, and free Wi-Fi

Though the features at Rivertide Suites aren't over-the-top, they do provide a good value and some nice extras. There's an indoor pool and hot tub along with a small fitness center with just four machines and a flat-screen TV. A desktop computer is available for guests' use and Wi-Fi is free throughout the property. The Crow's Nest, a fifth-floor deck, provides a pretty spot for taking pictures of the river, but isn't furnished.
