Frommer's "A touch of New Orleans hits Fort Lauderdale's popular Las Olas Boulevard in the form of this charming, six-story 1936 hotel." Full review
Concierge "Originally built in 1936, the Riverside is the oldest hotel in Fort Lauderdale. It's conveniently located in the heart of downtown."
Fodor's "On Las Olas Boulevard, just steps from boutiques, restaurants, and art galleries, Fort Lauderdale's oldest hotel (circa 1936) evokes a time bygone."
DK Eyewitness "New Orleans meets Fort Lauderdale at this charming six-story 1936 hotel, on a bustling thoroughfare of shops, cafés, and bars."
Rough Guide "Built in 1936, this elegant and comfortable option is in the heart of the action downtown on Las Olas. If you’d like a quieter room, request one at the back. $239."

Fodor's "The sprawling, kid-friendly Lago Mar, owned by the Banks family since the early 1950s, retains its sparkle and a refreshed old Florida feel thanks to frequent renovations." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Occupying its own little island between Lake Mayan and the Atlantic, Lago Mar is a charming resort with a beach."
Rough Guide "A luxury resort located a little away from the action, with two pools, several restaurants... and its own private patch of sand."
Star Service "In a tony residential area removed from Fort Lauderdale's hubbub, this hotel stays out of the limelight, which suits its loyal clientele just fine." Full review
