Great location. Close to everything we were able to walk. The view of the river was amazing. We did however book a king room with balcony and ended up in a double queen. Also the restaurants recommended by the hotel were overpriced and the food was not great.

We liked the historic value of the property. Our room was really very beautiful with brick walls and industrial features. The only problem was it was the room under the lobby. Noisy all night with people talking and walking. The lobby was on the 4th floor and we were on the 3rd floor - right under the lobby. I hate that we were the "lucky" ones to get that room but I'll know better next time.

The beds are very comfortable and the front staff are nice. The resteraunt is sorely lacking in service and they charged 5 dollars because my daughter shared a meal of avacado toast. She paid 19 dollars for one piece of toast. Nowhere on the menu does it state that if you share you have to pay an extra 5 dollars. This is not acceptable. Everything else was good. Would stay again.

St. Patty's on River Street

Overall the stay was great. A little attention needs to be given to the shower. There was stains on the walls of the shower and mold around the shower door. Rooms are small and tight, but that is understandable being the history behind the hotel. The balcony was great for us to sit/stand on to watch the crowds on River Street. It was a great experience, but way overpriced. Valet parking was full,so we had to ride around for an hour to find overnight parking, which was a 15 minute walked from the hotel. If price is right, I would return; however, I can stay in a much better place for the price I paid.

We had a wonderful time at the River Street Inn. It's a beautiful hotel located right by the river. We had great service and loved the Manager's Reception for drinks and appetizers. We will definitely return.

Walkable Riverfront

As planned we were right in the center of the activities we wanted to do. Restaurants and shops were all around. We had a view of the active river. We checked our car in on arrival and didn't use it until we checked out. Perfect.
