It was cold! To be fair I am a California resident there on November 5th ... the room was freezing to me. But they immediately brought me a space heater so I survived the two days. The staff was personable and I would stay there again because it was within walking distance to all the places I was there to visit.

A very nice place to stay

I have to say all the good outweighs the two bad receptionist I encountered and one of them I give her a bit of credit because she let me check in earlier than my "paid for early check in hour". But, she was a bit ready to be mean to me at the drop of dime, let's just say it all depended on how I responded to anything she said to me. The second one was a bit annoyed that she had to come from behind the desk to let me in the building because no one told me that I would need to use my key card to enter after 10-pm. This all took place at 10:42 pm.. lol anyway, the room was clean; the floor i stayed in was pleasantly quiet throughout my stay and the best part about it all is there's a full kitchen with pots and dishes. Yes a stove an actual stove. The rooms are spacious and the pillows and bed are comfortable. The valet guy was very nice and helpful i didn't get his name but he is of some sort of Indian descent. Very nice man and the hostess that morning was very nice talkative and helpful. I did not eat in the restaurant but it seems to be a lovely place to dine it was very busy for all three meal and the guest dining seemed very happy having their meals there. If I'm ever back in DC this is definitely going to be my place to stay.

A centrally located place, about a 5-min walk from the Metro. Nice, walkable neighborhood. Very friendly staff. Daily room service. Comfy bed and also comfy sofa bed. Kitchen with some utensils, china and pots in the room. Some parts of the room show their age a little bit (e.g., kitchen faucet, shower), but that adds to the charm.

Overall an excellent experience. Hotel staff very helpful and firendly. Perfectly situated in DC for access to Georgetown (e.g., Blues Alley, Martins Tavern, etc.). Short walk to Whole Foods, Trader Joes. Full working kitchen. The only negatives are parking cost/access, and an annoying mechanical problem in the suite that was not resolved. Have stayed at the River Inn before, and would do so again if I find myself back in the DC area.

Good value / good location

This is an excellent location for visiting DC with easy access to the Metro and to Georgetown. The room was very comfortable and the staff was very welcoming and responsive. The restaurant on the property is very good. Definitely a good value and we’ll be back!

The suite was large and spacious, allowing us to relax and unwind in a space that felt like our own living room. It was walking distance to the Kennedy center and an uber drive to other locations we wanted to visit. Very clean, helpful & courteous staff. Would stay there again.

The staff - front desk and bellhop - were more than friendly and helpful. They truly made us feel welcomed. The full kitchen was handy and the spacious room design made for a very comfortable stay. Location (near Foggy Bottom Metro, Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods & a few restaurants) was convenient.

It is a well-located hotel which is close to many restaurants and stores. Supermarkets such as Trader Joe’s and Whole Foods Market are within a 5-minute walk. Georgetown, with its beautiful historical houses, many tourist attractions such as The Exorcist Steps and hundreds of stores, restaurants and cafes, is only a 5-minute walk from the hotel. There is a street parking option in which you can park your car at night and on the weekends. On business days, you can park your two hours. The neighborhood is quite calm and extremely safe. The rooms are spacious and clean. The kitchenette in the room was very practical and well-equipped. Front desk employees Najwah and Jasmine, the vale whose name is Saif and the director Brandie Davis were great helpers during my stay. The communication, responsiveness and service quality are the highest. During my stay, I had to extend my stay, and since there was no availability, I had to change the hotel and I stayed in another hotel for another five days. During these five days, they kept my Amazon orders at the Front Desk, and every evening for three days, I stopped by The River Inn, and the hotel staff continued to help me and handed over my orders to me without showing any sign of boredom. I recommend The River Inn Hotel to everyone.
