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!
Liked the location: close to the ocean, Bodega Bay, Armstrong Redwoods, Russian River and Guerneville. But, the parking lot was very small and what we missed was a table and chair in the room to eat a meal and do computer.

Great stop during our road trip. Belle in the office was friendly and very helpful!!!
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.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
The property and staff were fantastic but unfortunately due to the noise of our neighbors who were drunk we decided to leave at midnight. I would recommend the hotel and staff but if there maybe a way to reduce the room noise I think it would benefit all parties, customers and hotel.
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!
I love this special place. We have stayed many times. This is the first time with new owner. She is making lots of upgrades big and small. Looking forward to our next stay.
Would have given all 5 stars but they are working on improvements still. New owner is a doll. Town is super charming and "liminal" according to my daughter
05/01/2024 This is a vintage - old world property - newly purchased by the owners who are excited to share the area with visitors. It’s quiet, very clean & very comfortable. The rooms are spacious and overlook one of the most beautiful and intimate locals on the Russian River. Parking is safe and generous and it’s a small piece of heaven on Earth. Come, relax and enjoy the solitude of the experience. A truly memorable place to stay. BEAUTIFUL Thank you to the new owners and congratulations... it’s a diamond on the river! m & r
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!
