The Sea View Kingsize is one of Riva’s most sought-after rooms — a light-filled, spacious retreat that pairs boutique comfort with uninterrupted views over the water. Perfect for couples, solo travellers, or anyone looking to slow down and take in the scenery, this room offers both elegance and calm in equal measure. The large windows look directly out across Gare Loch, bringing in soft natural light throughout the day and framing everything from peaceful morning mists to golden evening sunsets.
Inside, the room features a generously sized kingsize bed with crisp linens and layered textures for a restful night’s sleep. The interior is thoughtfully styled, with soft lighting, bespoke furniture, and a palette of navy, cream, and natural tones that mirror the view outside. You’ll also find a smart TV with Sky, a Nespresso-style coffee machine, a writing desk, full-length mirror, hairdryer, and plenty of storage — everything you need for a comfortable and well-equipped stay.
The en-suite bathroom is finished to a high standard, with a walk-in waterfall shower, wide basin, and Highland Soap toiletries. For added comfort, the bathroom features underfloor heating, making early mornings or post-adventure evenings feel all the more relaxing.
Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or simply treating yourself to a more scenic stay, the Sea View Kingsize offers one of the most memorable experiences at Riva.
Spacious, inviting, and just indulgent enough to feel like a treat — the Kingsize Bedroom at Riva is ideal for guests who want more room to breathe without stepping into the suite category.
At around 18 m², this room features a premium king-size bed that sits at the centre of a well-dressed space. The bed is set against a soft fabric headboard or detailed wooden paneling, with plump pillows and duvets that cocoon you in comfort. Tall ceilings (in many rooms) and a large window ensure a sense of airiness, whether you’re reading a book in the morning light or watching evening light spill through Helensburgh’s skyline.
The décor is elegantly minimalist with splashes of warmth — think artisanal Scottish wool throws, period-style furniture, and elegant floor lighting. An espresso machine sits in its own corner bar area, beside a kettle and selection of teas. A large smart TV and Sky channels allow for a relaxing night in, while a full desk setup invites guests who may need a little work time.
The en-suite bathroom is large and luxurious, with thick towels, rainfall shower, and Riva’s signature toiletries. Ideal for romantic breaks, solo relaxation, or just an upgrade from the ordinary.
The Family Bedroom is tailored with the needs of modern families in mind, blending practical flexibility with Riva’s boutique flair.
Spanning over 21 m², this is one of the most spacious accommodations in the hotel. It features a plush king or double bed for adults, a comfortable double sofa bed for children, and optional cot space for babies or toddlers — all within an open-plan, beautifully appointed room.
The layout is designed with real family life in mind: durable flooring with underfloor heating, lots of space to move around, and seating areas that can double as reading or snack nooks. The light-filled room features tall ceilings, layered textiles, and playful touches in the artwork that keep the space welcoming for younger guests while still retaining a boutique hotel’s charm.
There’s a smart TV with Sky, essential when winding down after a day out. Parents can enjoy an in-room espresso while the kids watch a movie or nap. Storage is ample, and the en-suite bathroom is bright and accessible, featuring a walk-in rainfall shower, oversized mirror, Highland Soap toiletries, and generous towel racks.
This room is a top choice for longer stays or group trips — combining comfort, style, and utility.
The Standard Double is a thoughtfully designed, cozy escape perfect for solo travellers, couples on a short stay, or those simply seeking a peaceful base to explore Helensburgh and the Loch Lomond area.
Though this is the most compact room in the Riva collection (approx. 16 m²), it sacrifices nothing in quality or experience. Upon entering, you’re greeted by underfloor heating that gently warms the contemporary oak or stone floor beneath your feet — especially welcome in Scotland’s cooler months. The design aesthetic blends vintage character with modern comfort, featuring muted coastal tones, soft lighting, and handcrafted furniture elements.
The double bed is dressed in high-thread-count linens and fluffy pillows, inviting a deep, uninterrupted sleep. A large smart TV with Sky channels is positioned for optimal viewing, and a sleek espresso-style coffee machine lets you start the morning with a quiet moment of indulgence.
The en-suite bathroom is tiled in cool grey or soft cream tones, with a walk-in shower featuring a rainfall head. Highland Soap Company products, made with organic ingredients from the Scottish Highlands, complete the spa-like feel. It’s ideal for those seeking elegance and comfort on a smaller scale.
Ideal for travelling companions, siblings, work colleagues, or guests who appreciate the balance of shared space with personal sleeping arrangements, the Twin Room at Riva offers two spacious single beds, each luxuriously made up with crisp linens and supportive pillows.
Set within approximately 16 m², this room is a blend of functionality and cozy styling. The décor follows Riva’s signature boutique charm — exposed timber accents, soft wall colours, and thoughtful decorative touches like vintage-style bedside lamps and locally inspired artwork.
The twin beds are separated just enough to feel personal without disconnecting the social dynamic. Between them, a shared nightstand and reading light make for an ideal wind-down setup.
There’s a work desk for those needing to plug in a laptop, and as with all Riva rooms, you’ll find a Sky-enabled smart TV, espresso coffee machine, free Wi‑Fi, hairdryer, and heating control. The en-suite bathroom is bright and well-proportioned, with walk-in rainfall shower and signature Highland Soap toiletries, offering a rejuvenating experience after a day of sightseeing or meetings.
