The Inn on the River is centrally located in Glen Rose's historic downtown, so rather than being in a hotel on the noisy Hwy 67, you get a more relaxing stay. The Inn is also a quiet oasis because its property slopes down to the Paluxy river. Its restaurant and bar are another nice feature. If you travel with a pet, then you can find a no more dog-friendly place than The Inn on the River.

Amazing staff and stay! The room was very cute and clean. The location is the best being directly on the river and walking distance to everything in town. The homemade breakfast every morning was amazing. So convenient that there is a restaurant and bar on site that makes great cocktails. Owner and staff were very accommodating to request and needs. Looking forward to returning.

Very disappointed. We had gone for a 20 mile hiking event and the owner had told us that she would have some eggs ready in the morning. We went down at 7:15 am in the morning but there were only store bought muffins, yogurt and coffee for breakfast. When we came back at 4:00 pm there was no hot water for tea or coffee, infact there was no one to be seen around. We had to check out and had to wait good 15 minutes for the owner to turn up! On the plus side the beds were comfortable!
