We enjoyed a relaxing overnight stay at the Riverview Inn. The property has a charming, historic feel, and definitely fits the “rustic retreat” vibe. The view overlooking the river and mountains is breathtaking. We especially loved sitting in the rocking chairs (really nice touch) on the balcony and using the hot tub while watching the river bend below. Breakfast the next morning was surprisingly good, with warm options and thoughtful touches. Future guests should know that the inn is located close to I-24, so there is some highway noise. There is a Publix and a Walgreens at the foot of the mountain which was very convenient. It's also located just down from Ruby Falls. Our room was clean and comfortable, and the atmosphere overall was quiet and peaceful. We enjoyed the abundance of pillows on the bed, the fluffy white robes, and the in-room Keurig complete with coffee pods, sweeteners, and creamers. The Roku TV was really nice as well, as we could log in to our personal streaming services. If you’re looking for a cozy, charming place to unwind and enjoy the scenery, especially as a couple’s getaway, this is a lovely spot. We’re glad we stayed.

The bed was very comfortable and the views were beautiful. There were about 5 stink bugs and several lady bugs on the ceiling but that is normal this time of year. Overall a wonderful stay! The team communicated our room code several hours before check-in which allowed us the flexibility to relax sooner before heading out to the city for dinner.

The room was amazing with a great view. The hot tube was clean and ready to be used. We meet other guests at the upper fire pit. I think almost every guest came over to say hi. There were S'mores kits for everyone. The morning breakfast was great with a good verity of hot food. This will be a go to stop when ever we pass thru again.

Only thing is the insulation between the room in the doorway doesn’t keep out the noise of the adjacent room. It is nothing that is a problem it’s just information. The view from our room was beautiful. It was central to everything, attractions and restaurants. Tony’s Pasta house, State of Confusion were wonderful choices for dinner. We ate breakfast at Milk and Honey, and Honey Seed. Great place for breakfast and was great atmosphere.

The hotel overall was outstanding! The rustic look, the location, the amenities, and the quality of the rooms were excellent in every way! The complimentary breakfast was good plus we had an awesome view as we ate since it’s located on a mountain. And, it’s conveniently located to local attractions.

This inn offers a convenient self check-in and check-out process, which made our arrival smooth and hassle-free. We truly enjoyed our stay, the place was very clean and well-maintained. The room, however, was a bit smaller than we expected, and it didn’t have bathroom countertops, which made it a little challenging to keep our toiletries organized or do things comfortably at the sink. Overall, it’s a cozy and tidy spot that’s great for a short stay.
