Disappointing

This is a budget beachside hotel. The location is good for Colonial Beach, but the overall quality and cleanliness was disappointing. The room was not totally clean and there were damaged or broken things everywhere. For example, the smoke alarm was simply hanging above the door by its electric connecting cords. It makes you question everything. I will never visit this hotel or the beach again. I also learned that I paid $100 more by booking through this platform. Booking directly was much cheaper. The price on this platform indicating a nicer hotel than in actuality.

Very nice hotel on the beach with a pool that we had to ourselves the whole week. The only thing i didnt like were the picnic tables outside our room because other people would sit there at 6am in the morning and late at night smoking which we smelled in our room, talking, laughing and coughing so loud that they woke us up every morning. We are on vacation and prefer not to get woken up that early. Very annoying. And the people at the front desk barely speak english which is also annoying. Loved watching the fireworks from the hotel and there was also a carnival right behind us that was nice. We will be back!

This as a ‘value’ stay. We were not expecting Ritz-Carlton, and we didn’t get it for <$150/night. While acceptably clean, it had the residual odor of cleaning products. It would take several towels to really dry off; we got two. No coffee maker but short walk to lobby at 7am for decent coffee and, ah, breakfast? It was okay, and okay enough that we’ll come back for a one-two day stay.

Ownersvhave plans to start renovating for room upgrades in October 2025 & be done by December 2025. New bathroom & special room amenities to include iron, ironing board & in-room coffee maker.

When I first went to Colonial Beach, River Edge Inn was the Days Inn. They remodeled and changed the name. The rooms were nice and immaculate. The staff was wonderfully pleasant. I will always stay at River Edge Inn.

We Love Colonial Beach! River Edge Inn Is AMAZING!

Our company came out for an event to do as a vendor. The hotel was good about letting us check in late & check out late. We even left some of our equipment in the room & they held it for us for an entire week until we could make it back there to get it The location was amazing, right on the beach & by the boardwalk. The offered free breakfast. The waffles were amazing, but the chocolate filled doughnuts were to die for, although I should have had the fruit and yogurt. We were able to get coffee all hours in the cafe. The pool was clean and a nice relaxing area. Definitely our spot when we come back to Colonial Beach. It is literally close to everything so you can walk, no need to drive. The rooms were clean and the beds very comfortable. The staff was very friendly and helpful with whatever questions we had about the event going on and finding things nearby. We even watched the fireworks from the hotel parking lot.
