My husband and I have really developed the love for staycations. As much as we love traveling and exploring new cities and countries, there is nothing quite relaxing as packing a bag and heading to an Inn in the city and vegging out.
We,
unintentionally, had happen to choose a cold winter weekend, to stay at The Riven Inn, A Modus Hotel. This was our second stay at a Modus property, and having had a wonderful experience previously, we were looking forward to our stay.We checked in late on a Friday evening, and were welcomed by their most hospitable staff. We were exhausted and hence, watched a little television and called it a night. Next morning we woke up to a cold, snowy D.C. morning. It is such a wonderful sight. The whole weekend was about enjoying the city, sipping hot chocolate, hiding from the cold and shopping for more layers, and then coming back to our spacious, comfortable room at The River Inn.
So instead of doing a same-ole-review I thought I will give you give good reasons to consider The River Inn for your next D.C. stay:
Location: Tucked away on a tree-lined street, The River Inn is a stone-throw-away from Georgetown. It strikes a perfect balance between relaxation and serenity, while still embracing the spirit of the city.
Rooms: It has upscale, spacious suites with ample space for long stays and families, both. The rooms have a full kitchen with a refrigerator, a desk with office space, a living room with a sofa bed, and large windows with panoramic views of the Potomac River or Foggy Bottom. What else could a room offer!
Staff: A special shoutout to everyone at the Front Desk and the restaurant. They were attentive, patience and had answers for whatever queries we might have. They were professional and courteous even during the peak hours.
Toiletries: The 'PURE' products especially their body lotion is one of my favorite so whenever I see it in any hotel I stay, I already like it a little more.
Yoga - The River Inn has a partnership with Georgetown Yoga which is a 10 minute walk from the hotel. They offer complimentary access to all their in-studio classes, which for me was the best amenity a property can offer.
And if that is not enough, they also have a trendy restaurant on site - DISH - that features contemporary reinventions of American classics. It had a casual-chic-ambiance which I would love to come back for a date night and enjoy!
If you are visiting D.C. or a DMV area resident looking for a cozy-comfortable stay, I would highly recommend the The River Inn.
