Frommer's
"This place doesn't look like much from the outside and things don't get significantly better inside." Full review
Lonely Planet
"A long-term fixture on the Malecón, this former Mafia gambling den doesn't quite match up to the stellar views." Full review
Rough Guide
"Plain, seafront, high-rise hotel with the brightest and best-appointed rooms among the relatively modest selection in Centro Habana, many with fantastic views of the Malecón, Habana Vieja and Vedado."
Fodor's
"Such a good deal that the clientele is usually an interesting collection of students, professors, and the occasional writer. What's more, the disco is one of the city's hottest."

"Meyer Lansky's magnificent Vegas-style palace has leapt back into fashion with its gloriously retro lobby almost unchanged since 1957 (when it was the height of modernity)." Full review

"Built by the mafia in the 1950s as a casino hotel, the Riviera retains much of that era’s style."
Fodor's
"Although it's large, impersonal, and inefficient, the Riviera is home to El Palacio de la Salsa, one of Havana's best music venues." Full review

"The lobby, with its sharp modernist lines and Vegas-style ostentation, looks like a set from The Godfather: Part II, while the rooms are less striking." Full review
