5 stars! Beautiful place to get away.
BEAUTIFUL property! Well appointed inside and lovely sitting areas outside with Edison lights. Went over the winter but would definitely come back in the summer. Staff were kind, professional and very helpful (even called me back when I left an item behind in the room). Can’t wait to plan a trip here again!

It was a nice stay, but nothing special this time around. Normally our stays are at the ‘great’ level but just felt something was lacking this particular visit especially given I had mentioned the stay was for my wife’s birthday. In addition, the floor in the room appeared to not have been cleaned properly which was a bit surprising. Plan to go back in future, but hoping for an improvement next time around.

The winery owner who owns this property needs to invest money back into it or drop the idea that this is a luxury hotel stay experience. Billed as a top quality hotel in the area; it is not. Expect hair clogged in your tub drain, a room so hot and cloying you cannot sleep, not even an oscillating fan helped (provided by the lovely front desk clerk, who, incidentally, was also required to clean the nasty clump of sludge-impacted hair ball out of the tub drain while we went to eat! Poor employee!) a wall heater/air fan/cooling system thing that was non-functioning at best (the room was 75-76 degrees all night) people tromping overhead, stains all over the walls in the bathroom, mirror, door, etc. (name a wall, find a stain) A room in need of water damage repair and painting, nasty uncleaned carpet, standing water in the tub as you showered (even though the poor clerk had to clear away the giant hair ball...clearly the problem went deeper) a shower curtain that sticks to the side of your body while you shower, broken drapes you can't close to keep the sunlight from waking you, TV issues, a remote out of batteries...let's see, did I get it all? Oh, one positive, the bed was nice-though the sheets looked they'd been slept in. They did comp us breakfast for our troubles. But we booked a room in this luxury hotel to escape a home construction disaster for a night. Little did we know we'd be staying in their construction disaster. Not impressed. Seeking a full refund.

Wonderful relaxing stay. Staff is very nice and helpful. Room was just as I expected, charming and comfortable. I would definitely recommend. Shuttled over to winery next door for an amazing dinner. Short distance to town and shops.

This is an amazing hotel. My wife and I came here 20 years ago and it is as nice as I remember. Rooms are spacious with modern amenities. My only disappointment was that the restaurant was closed for dinner. We went up to Peller restaurant but that was a poor and disappointing experience. The hotel provides a golf cart to get there which was very convenient but the food sub-par. We would definitely stay at Riverbend again. :)

The staff were very friendly and the room very comfortable. We knew the restaurant was closed for the season but it would have been nice to have the lounge open for after dinner (elsewhere). We sat and red books in our room for the evening. We thought we could have the fireplace on but eventually figured it was affiliated with the thermostat. It was a real treat to wake up through the night with a fire in the grate. Lovely!!
