Recently having undergone a thorough renovation, The Riversleigh features many of the original Victorian elements that make it such an important heritage building, including the cast-iron balconies, terrazzo paving on the verandas, the etched glass surrounding many of the doors, and the beautiful ruby-glass windows that originally lit the top of the staircases.
