The best area to stay in Riva is around the historic centre and along the lakefront promenade.
This area is the heart of Riva, offering easy access to the main attractions and the lake. You'll find a pedestrianised zone with cobbled streets, historic buildings, and plenty of shops, restaurants, and cafes. The main square, Piazza III Novembre, is a focal point, right by the harbour where you can catch ferries. The lakefront promenade stretches for miles, superb for walks or cycling.
For couples, staying near the historic centre provides a romantic setting. You're steps away from intimate dining experiences and can enjoy evening strolls along the illuminated promenade. Proximity to the Rocca di Riva, a medieval fortress, and the Torre Apponale, a prominent clock tower, adds to the charm and offers lovely views.
Families will appreciate hotels along the lakefront promenade, especially those slightly to the north or west of the very centre, towards the beaches. These locations often offer more spacious rooms and direct access to the calmer waters of the lake, which are ideal for swimming and paddling.
