I didn't know what to think of this hotel in D.C. but compared to a lot of other hotels out there this one is really nice and has plenty to offer. For one I was impressed they had valet garage parking for my car taken care of. And also the staff was extremely nice and made everything for my stay... more

We really enjoyed staying at The River Inn. It was about a 20 minute walk down to the main historic attractions and 10 minutes or so to all the lovely shops and restaurants in Georgetown. The room was huge and had a full kitchen (but no oven) which would be great if you were staying for a while (we were... more

I stayed here over an odd weekend in January 2007 and therefore managed to get a great rate on a suite. I'm not sure if the same rates apply anymore so I won't specify it here, but it was a truly excellent deal for a comfortable, spacious room with a complete kitchen (and even coffee beans)! There's a Trader Joe's... more

We’re delighted you enjoyed your peace and quiet time while you stayed with us at The River Inn, nowadays it is hard to find both in the same place! We’re happy you were able to find a great deal during our slow time of the year but I am pretty sure that if you will visit our specials and packages...

The room was wonderful, the kitchen was stocked with silverware, fridge, coffemaker and coffee grinder and beans (in addition to regular coffee) and the room was very well laid out. The wireless still does not work (but the wired connection does) the bathroom toilet (but the staff responded immediately but never quite fixed it) had a problem and one of... more

We’re pleased you were able to enjoy all the amenities we offer in your room, from the coffee grinder with recently added Starbucks coffee beans to the shaving mirror in your bathroom. I’m sorry to hear that our wireless internet was not working out for you, we just got it upgraded, we’ll be sure to look into it and get...

What a great place to stay in the DC Area. I looked at many many reviews before I selected this hotel. We had never been to DC, and just took a chance. It is located in a residential area of Georgetown and is quiet. Only 2 blocks from the Foggy Bottom Metro stop...very convenient. The front desk staff could not... more

I just got back from Washington - first pleasure trip there in 25 years and had a wonderful time. The River Inn was the perfect place to stay. I made the reservations on line and it was easy - better than dealing with on line booking places. Plus, they offered promotional items via email - - a discount at the... more

The River Inn is a small hotel near 25th and K NW. I had stayed there once before, but it has been totally redone since. The room was really more of a studio with kitchenette. The hotel is near a Trader Joes (25th across Pennsylvania) and there's a Safeway in the Watergate complex in walking distance, so someone staying there... more

Our first trip to DC and what a wonderful experience!! First off Magdelana took our reservations over the phone (I had trouble with the internet) and she was not only delightful, but went above and beyond in her hospitality! She emailed me the Metro station info and took answered all of my many questions! The River Inn is a really... more

I really enjoyed my stay at the River Inn. The staff were really friendly, which was important to me as a lone traveller. The room was beautiful with a lovely bed and loads of facilities including the coffee beans and grinder I was so looking forward to. The toiletries were top class and I loved the dressing gown. Internet connection... more

We stayed for three nights (and could have happily stayed for longer!) This suite hotel is superbly situated in Foggy Bottom - just minutes from the subway and a short walk into Georgetown on the west side of Washington. The suite was superb, comprising a lobby, dressing area, spacious bathroom, bedroom/lounge/study with a separate and well-equipped kitchen area. Although the... more

We love it when our guests want to stay with us longer, wish you could have…maybe next time ?? =) We’re glad you were able to enjoy your spacious rooms and amenities during your stay. Georgetown is just a few minutes’ walk and see you enjoyed what they had to offer as well, SUPER! Busy busy bees I see. Hope...
