I stayed for one night during a very busy work week. I had a very confortable room with lots of thoughtful amenities provided. The breakfast was freshly cooked and plentiful and the host was exceptionally friendly, warm and welcoming. I will be back!

Es un Bed&Breakfast familiar y monísimo, con todos los detalles muy cuidados. Las habitaciones tienen mucho encanto, con un pequeño juego de té y una botella de agua. Por la noche es tranquila y no se oye nada. El aseo es pequeño pero suficiente. Los anfitriones son encantadores, nos recomendaron lugares para cenar y para visitar y en el desayuno estuvimos hablando con la propietaria, super simpática! El desayuno es totalmente casero, tomamos el Irish breakfast y tortitas buenísimas en el salón acogedor que daba al exterior y con música ambiente irlandesa. Muy recomendable !
Nada, todo fue estupendo

The Full Irish was delicious and I had a little bonus of pancakes with bacon and maple syrup. we were very impressed with the chia seeds and mixed seeds that you could add to your cereal.

My partner and I booked a night in the Riverdale over the weekend and it was perfect for what we needed as we were doing a quick tour around Athlone before we moved onto Roscommon. The hosts were absolutely lovely, the room was spotless and had everything we needed and the location was perfect. We'll definitely book again when we come back.

Very friendly and clean and the breakfast choices was great and really tasty, the location is close to town when you find the route.
It was a bit tricky to find but there was road works going on which didn’t help.

Cosy, homelike atmosphere with feelings from the past. Friendly hospitality. Clean rooms with all amenities.
Nice breakfast!
There's nothing to complain about, but as the location is slightly on the side of the city centre, it may not be best for all.

This B & B was fabulous! We loved our room and the entire place - the period places were lovely throughout the B & B. Neil and his wife were very gracious. Neil made special arrangements for us to get to our room when we arrived early. The Riverdale House was within walking distance to the downtown where we went to the Castle with an extensive history of Athlone and made a stop at the oldest Pub on record, 900 AD. The breakfast was made to order and simply delicious. Neil was a great host and went out of his way to assist us at every turn. If you are looking for a comfortable and relaxing B & B, go to Riverdale House.
This small establishment did not have an elevator, but that did not deter us, and we are in our 70s, walking up the stairs with luggage. Well worth the minor inconvenience.

The hosts, Neil and Avril, were wonderful! Neil has the best suggestions for things to do in the area and nearby. They made us feel like friends coming for a visit. Breakfast was amazing and their home is near town, so it’s a great spot for rest after visiting around town. We’ll be back the next time we’re in Ireland!

The location was perfect, the rooms were so clean with a modern take while still keeping a classic/antique look, the location was perfect to walk right into the town, and the hosts were so nice and helpful during our stay.
Everything was great, one suggestion would be to add possibly an oatmeal option to the breakfast menu to accommodate guests with different dietary restrictions.

Avril and Neil were so welcoming and friendly. They really went all out to help wherever they could with travel and sightseeing advice. Breakfast was first class and freshly cooked to order. Plenty of parking, good wifi, plenty of tea, coffee etc in room. Great location for the pretty town of Amroth which was less than 10 mins walk away.
