Pros:

We loved this hotel! We loved the historical value and the ability to briefly step back in time to experience a time gone by. The front desk staff were incredibly helpful. We ate at the attached restaurant and were impressed with the food.

The area was beautiful and worthy of exploring. Our only regret was that we were just passing thru and didn't have time to seriously check out the area. We made a promise to ourselves that we would return specifically to enjoy the hotel and the area!

Great recommendation and wonderful hotel
Pros:

Riverview Hotel is right above Seagles (restaurant and separate bar) with great priced drinks. Across the street, I’d recommend Souther River Walk for dinner, it’s always great food and service). Both places had live entertainment on their patios. Riverview Hotel was great! George checked us in and he was kind, even offered us an umbrella when he found out we were walking around the riverfront (it looked like it was going to rain).

I love the location of the property and how you are not bothered by a bunch of people, I love the balcony. We sit out there with a glass of wine and the location can’t be beat.

Pros:

This is a great place to stay. We stayed there the night before going to Cumberland island.

The people at the desk were kind and helpful.
The room was clean and had great character.
The bed was comfortable.
They had live entertainment on the patio. It was great because they had a good dinner restaurant, served a continental breakfast and we were able to order lunches for the hike! Loved how this hotel had everything.
