It is a charming hotel with an amazing view .. it is just that rooms are different and when you are reserving it , you are reserving that room (we didn’t know this but then when I looked at my reservation I saw I actually booked a specific room) For our room, we had a kitchen with sink and oven-toaster and mid size fridge but that made our bathroom very very small .. this was room 2

Clean and Cozy

I have been coming to this part of the Russian River for well over a decade. I had stayed here at this very property many years ago while under its previous ownership. It will now be on my list of go to spots to stay. The upgrades that the current owner has done are tasteful and modern while still holding on to the areas rustic charm. The pet friendly room I stayed in was immaculately clean. The proximity to the river can’t be beat and comes in handy when traveling with a dog. Cassidy, the manager was attentive and friendly from the time I booked the reservation. I am so happy I tried this place out again. Can’t wait to plan my next visit.

Our stay was amazing. We went to celebrate our baby moon/anniversary and the owner upgraded us to a room with a River front view. The hospitality was so great, the view was amazing, the inn was so peaceful with so many gorgeous spots to sit and view the river. If you’re looking for a cozy peaceful spot to stay with plenty of woodsy views nearby, Inn on the Russian River is a great choice!

Liked the location: close to the ocean, Bodega Bay, Armstrong Redwoods, Russian River and Guerneville. But, the parking lot was very small and what we missed was a table and chair in the room to eat a meal and do computer.

What a cute establishment. Right on the river, easy access from The road. Our room faced the river and there was beach access with lots of seating areas. The property is is peaceful and serene. The gardens and common areas are undergoing a refresh but you wouldn’t be able to tell. Will definitely come here again.

The property and staff were fantastic but unfortunately due to the noise of our neighbors who were drunk we decided to leave at midnight. I would recommend the hotel and staff but if there maybe a way to reduce the room noise I think it would benefit all parties, customers and hotel.

Reeeeelaxing Getaway!

We had a wonderful time lazing about at The Inn. It is casual comfort, with excellent hospitality. The new owners have been busy trying to upgrade the property, and they have many wonderful plans in the works. Our room was a tad uncomfortable, but this will be easily addressed in the future. We plan to return!
