The scenic veranda provides excellent spots for relaxing and enjoying the river view during pleasant evenings.
The noise from the bar was disruptive, especially on music nights, making it difficult to sleep comfortably.

charming, charming, charming
I loved the unique antique ambiance that feels like stepping back in time! The scenic veranda overlooking the river provided a peaceful spot to relax, and the on-site bar was a good local hub with live music that really enhanced our experience. The staff was attentive and arranged delicious box lunches for our trip to the nearby island, showcasing a personal touch.

Just a solid selection for a short layover in Saint Marys with reasonable price. The staff was friendly and even prepared me a great meal despite the kitchen being closed. Try to avoid rooms facing the bar if you want quiet.

would definitely return.
Cozy room with air conditioning, private bathroom, flat-screen TV, and fresh linens. Loved the hardwood floors and the little touches like free toiletries and a hairdryer. The lobby felt inviting with its vintage decor. A fantastic porch overlooking the river made it a great spot to chill. Breakfast options were basic but fine.

Oh, where to start? The noise from the bar was simply unbearable—music woudl ve been tolerable if it didn’t go on all night! And the breakfast was practically a letdown, how does a hotel this 'prestigious' not have a better spread? I expected a complimentary gesture for these inconveniences, but instead, I was just another regular guest.

Charming antique aesthetic enhances the experience.
Our room was extremely noisy due to the bar downstairs, making it impossible to get a good night's sleep. The mattress was lumpy, and the cleanliness left much to be desired, with stains on the walls and doors. I was disappointed by the lack of attentiveness from the staff, who seemed unmotivated and uninterested in addressing our concerns.

The view from the hotel is stunning, especially if you score a river-facing room. The veranda offers a pleasant breeze for relaxing sessions, even in sweltering weather.
Renovations are overdue, evident in the lumpy mattresses and a serious musty smell upon entry. Noise levels from the bar below and the street can be disruptive at night, making it tough to get restful sleep. Some rooms come with less-than-clean sheets, and unexpected surprises like stained bedding aren't ideal. Overall, the charm of this historic spot is marred by its need for a facelift and better upkeep.

Riverview Hotel is a charming spot right across from the ferry to Cumberland Island, making it super convenient for day trips. The rooms are adorned with vintage decor that adds to the historic vibe, and the porch with rocking chairs provides a lovely view of the river. Staff were exceptionally warm and welcoming, creating a nice atmosphere throughout our stay.
The breakfast options were somewhat limited and not very exciting.

The Queen Room was cozy and reminded me of my grandmother's house. It had a clean vibe and comfy bedding, which was great for a good night’s sleep. The A/C worked perfectly, and having access to cable TV was a nice bonus, although we didn't use it much. Fun local feel at the bar downstairs added to the charm. The room could use some updates, but it was overall a comfortable experience.
