Lovely experience the restaurant is very top notch for great seafood
Charming old hotel located in the heart of the downtown, historic district across from a beautiful city park overlooking the water and marsh land. George and Judy were very friendly, personable and helpful and a joy to meet. The hotel offers a bar and restaurant as well. The food was good and the entertainment was lively.

Loved the historical aspect of Riverview Hotel. Great location and wonderful food in hotel’s restaurant,Seaguls:)
Room was very clean and we enjoyed the front porch watching sunset and talking with other guest. A pleasurable experience we will have to revisit and stay longer .
I know it’s a historic property but it was disappointing. Barely warm coffee in morning, noisy sagging bed, chair placed in front of door to impede walking, silverfish in tub.
