Beautiful hotel in a great location. We enjoyed walking around town and by the river. We stayed one night. Our room on the 4th floor was small but very sufficient, clean and neat. It was street-side and I found that there was a lot of traffic noise overnight. If I went again I would try to get a river view room to alleviate the noise. We had breakfast in the Gun Room and it was very good. All staff we came in contact with were friendly and helpful.
Beautiful hotel at an historic location. Large Room was charming with a canopy bed and a view of the river. Complimentary Breakfast was great. Friendly staff. Good price. Free parking. Check out the high water marks and historic artifacts on display in lobby.
We have stayed here four times now and enjoyed it every time. The rooms are lovely, specially the river view ones in the new extension. The food in the dining room is good and they are pet friendly too.
Love it here. This is my favorite place to stay in Ohio. The rooms are clean. The views are awesome and the staff is always friendly. We’ve been staying here for probably more than 15 years.
My husband and I love history. This hotel and the town of Marietta gave us just that. It is absolutely beautiful. We were celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary and wanted a slow-paced relaxing place to visit. We requested a nice room with a view of the Ohio River. We received a corner room on the 5th floor with plenty of space, a beautiful sparkling clean bathroom, corner windows looking out over the river and a nice view of Marietta!
