My husband and I stayed for Christmas Eve and Christmas. This B&B was very warm and inviting. The owners were hospitable, from the making of the reservation to the time we left. We had dinner at the B&B's restaurant on Christmas Day. The food was delicious, and the restaurant service outstanding.

This B&B was a pleasant experience. Very old but well kept Inn is a trip back in time. The breakfast was great - terrific coffee and perfect french toast with fresh fruit and real maple syrup! The owners were kind, provided helpful tips for touring and meals. There are large common areas with comfortable furniture for relaxing with friends. We had one of the rooms with two beds, and it was clean, bright and large. The only down side was that the mattresses were very hard and the room faced a three-way intersection that stays busy all night. We wanted to leave the windows open as it was a cool night and you can hear the river when it is quiet. Due to the traffic I had put in ear plugs. I would recommend asking for a room in the back or closing windows & shades (and turning on the air) if you get a room on the street during the milder weather.

We've driven by the Inn for many years, and often wondered what it would be like to stay there. On the occasion of my wife's birthday, this was our first overnight visit (2 nights). We had a spacious and charming room, with period furniture, substantial linens and towels, and a very comfortable king-size bed. The owners, Pauline and Mark, were very accommodating and welcoming. Breakfast was delightful. It was a special treat to stay in such a historic inn, hosted by innkeepers for whom this is obviously a labor of love. Those expecting the Ritz, be forewarned: this is not for you. This is a 235-year-old, hand-crafted building that has stood the test of time, yet also provides wi-fi service. You will not find much that is square, level, or plumb in the house; but you will find a warm, cozy and charming place (and people to match) where you can detach from the pace of the modern world and experience humanity as it used to be. A blessing indeed.

What a pleasant stay we experienced on New Years eve... it was just what we were hoping it would be... peaceful...( I know, not your usual desire for New Years Eve..).. however we wanted to relax, finally, after a busy holiday week and we most certainly did.
The Old Riverton Inn is oh yes, old... filled with antiques, uneven floors, situated in a setting that reminds one of the olden days with the River close by, the old Hitchcock Factory right across the bridge...( sadly it has closed).
The Innkeepers were wonderful and welcoming and made us feel right at home.
The food, the service were fantastic... I mean it... and what a treat for us given we are used to less than attentive service while dining in our hometown area.
The Inn settled down after the last dinner seating was done... quiet, peaceful night, comfy bed., warm quilts, soft pillows.. heaven !!
Next morning we walked downstairs to a full breakfast, again, delicious and the owner gave us some town history and renditions of the good old days, the heydays, in Riverton.
Alas !! We forgot to pack our extra pillows... no problem... I called the Inn and they left them packed in plastic bags for our return trip to retrieve them... and we got to experience another snowy, country drive back there.
Thank you for a perfect overnight !!
