Very friendly proprietor and staff. Lovely garden area with picnic tables, grills, fire pits and more overlooking the river. Such a beautiful view. Cozy rooms with good amenities, and only a short drive away to restaurants, shops and attractions. Would certainly stay again.

Leah, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

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!

This is a cute, retro motel. Our room was very comfortable and clean. We will definitely stay there again! Would have appreciated the breakfast but apparently it was not being offered when we were there.

Belle at check was awesome! She let mw check in early and gave some really great recommendations on the area. The grounds here are beautiful. I went for a solo relaxtion weekend and this hotel was perfect. I loved the cottage feel to the rooms! Will definitely be coming back in the spring
Kelly, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

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.

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!
Kenneth, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We had a great experience with this hotel. The only thing we found a little odd was that they leave your room open and your key inside the room, which made us a little nervous as two girls arriving quite late. Otherwise the room was great, and the service was great!
Aimi, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This place has a lovely garden on the river. We had a mix up with Expedia and could only stay 1 night but I’d definitely come back. The room was spacious and comfortable to cook meals and stay awhile.
