I have stayed in many wonderful hotels in many exciting countries yet this is the first time that I have felt compelled to write a review. This property is an oasis in every way. The staff are outstanding; welcoming, warm, genuine. The room are luxurious yet comfortable. The extra touches make you feel truly at home; morning coffee in the library, a nightcap at turntown. It's so true what they say; the small gestures are the most memorable, although none more so than the bedroom view of sunset over the Mississippi; breathtaking.

Very nice property, mostly outstanding staff. Rooftop bar was great, as was the restaurant. Service at breakfast was outstanding and both breakfast and dinner menus were very nice. The one thing the killed me was the noise level in the room. Both nights heard neighbors television and talking as well as a very heavy stepping upstairs resident. big disappointment in an otherwise top notch property.

This is our second trip to Memphis to stay at the River Inn and would highly recommend to anyone. We drive 8 hrs for this incredible stay and their food. At check in you are greeted with wine/champagne from friendly staff. The rooms with the Mississippi River view are the best. Beautiful decor, very cozy bed linens and pillows. In the morning you have fresh coffee waiting for you on your floor. Everything is exceptional. My husband and I recommend Tug's for dinner which is attached to the hotel. If you love gumbo you'll love their seafood gumbo, voted Memphis's best! Their chili is great too! For your complimentary breakfast you'll be greeted at Paulette's, also attached to the hotel, by Patrick who will offer you the best service and food imaginable. Try the eggs Benedict or the French toast with cinnamon butter. We will definitely be
back next year to enjoy the Mud Island area of Memphis again!
