ริเวอร์โบ๊ท อินน์ แอนด์ สวีทส์

My wife and I were visiting from Florida (we are English and like to travel around the US), and I always try and choose privately owned or more boutique places to stay as I just find they have more personality, and the Riverboat didn’t disappoint.. as someone who worked hard and built a large business myself, I always have a soft spot for anyone you can see is really making an effort and cares about their business, and it is obvious the owners are putting their souls into this place.. the Riverboat manages to remain homely and has that guest house feel to it, but it is evident a lot has been invested and we really wanted for nothing. We had a King Suite on the second floor which I’d highly recommend, being really spacious, perfectly equipped and, whilst not fancy as such, it was immaculately kept, the bed was super comfortable and having the big seating area off the rooms on that floor really made it with it being summer and able to enjoy the view of the river. The welcome we received on arrival was excellent, so informative and helpful, and the little bar, live music and casual breakfast just topped it off for us. A big shout to one of the owners mom, she really made us feel at home 😊 This is the only place to stay in Madison in my opinion.. loved it!

The Inn has been upgraded and now has entertainment but its the people who own and run it that matterl They couldn't be more accomodating, gracious, and helpful. especially Zach who couldn't have been more helpful. This was the third time we've stayed there and it was definately the best. There are lots of gathering spots on the porches with comfortable furniture, televisions, and even a fire pit to enjoy! The best place for getting together with family and friends. I wouldn't consider staying anywhere else.

This is a great little place right on the Ohio River. It’s historic and has a great vibe to it. Rooms are quaint and well equipped, they even have smart TVs. Beautiful bar in the lobby and Zach is a good bartender as well as conversationalist! On the day I arrived they had live music on the patio. Beds are a little hard, but this is a complete no brainer!

Nice place to relax in front of the river. Nice patios and pool was clean. Ample room. Zack was really nice and made us feel welcomed and at home. Nice town to visit as well. It was the place we were hoping for.
