Opinions RIVERDALE INN Jacksonville

We stayed in this lovely home last week for one night for the Tim McGraw Concert. From the moment we arrived we were welcomed and had a magical experience. The historic home is so beautiful! It’s located next to a nice Park that is on the St John’s River. The staff was so great and the breakfast was delicious! Best place ever to stay at!! So relaxing! When visiting Jackson FL this is definitely the #1 place to stay at.

We checked in to the Riverdale Inn this afternoon. It is in a great neighborhood close to the river. There is parking on site and you can walk to the local neighborhood attractions and restaurants. The bathroom is amazing in our room and the bed is so comfortable.

Wonderful historical venue, attentive staff and amazing food ❤️

We had tea and scones it was a wonderful experience!!

A couple of words come to mind flawless and love. I met with Mary-Mychal in late August early September to tour Riverdale. This part was a no brainer. I love historic homes and the stories they hold. Riverdale is over 100 years old and has been restored to painstaking detail. It feels very cozy and inviting. Mary-Mychal and Eric (owners) are absolutely lovely. Easy decision..
The room we chose was the Roosevelt Room. Windows and hardwood floors are GORGEOUS. Bed was very comfy. Bathroom area is also gorgeous.
My officiant was Dwayne (HIGHLY RECCOMMEND). He is such a lovely peaceful individual. We spoke the night before to review our vows. He is so reassuring. Immediately at ease.
Flowers were delivered day of. I wasn't very specific other than asking for a pink rose and a gerbera daisy for my grandmother and my fiances mom. They had passed years ago but I still wanted to honor them. I wasn't expecting her to be able to get them due to the time of year. They were in the bouquet!!
Reception food was expertly crafted. Well seasoned and beautiful presentation. Chef Eric truely outdid himself. Due to dietary restrictions of some of our guests we chose a more protein heavy menu. The chicken satay was amazing!
From Mary-Mychals expert level coordination to Eric's craftsmanship of our menu and Dwayne and Sydneys love and peacefulness and just being friendly ears to listen. Thank you fron the bottom of our hearts. You truely made this a special moment that we will definetly treasure.

Beautiful property in a calm neighborhood of Jacksonville. It is a huge home, repurposed as a B&B. It's very quiet, nicely appointed, and the check-in process is easy. The front door remains locked, and the parking area is well-illuminated. We could not take advantage of the tea and breakfast services due to our short stay, but the dining and other social areas on the main floor are lovely. The bed was very comfortable and the room was nicely appointed. I give it 5 stars because it really fulfilled all our needs during our short stay in Jacksonville.

My husband was scheduled to have surgery at St. Vincent’s but surgery was rescheduled for a later date. I called and canceled my reservation 3 1/2 days prior to our stay. Was told I had to pay 100% in cancellation fee. What a rip off. Also, hotel does not have an elevator. Steer clear of this place!

Very nice... Beautiful place!

My daughter and I took my grand daughter to the tea room for her 11th birthday. The house was beautiful and the area just amazing. The tea room was very pretty. The little sandwiches and deserts were lovely. However, I have this constructive criticism: The server was very sweet and did a great job, but I felt should be dressed a little nicer then a wrinkled jumper shorts. The tea box that was presented had nothing special. Half empty except the Lipton tea bags and some that looked like they were purchased at the local grocery store. I think there was 3 or 4 to choose from. We were the only ones there, I would have thought we could sit at a better table then the small one with three chairs that was in a corner facing a wall. Had I arrived first I would have requested a different table and I'm sure they would accommodate since no one else was there. The music was ok because we were there with an 11 yr old. Otherwise it should have been more than old pop songs. I expected just a touch more for the price.

Nice experience.

Fantastic stay! Super comfortable, quaint and clean. Great location. Best Bloody Mary ????!

Beautiful rooms, genuine hospitality, great location / walkable neighborhood, thoughtful amenities- what’s not to love?
Hands down my new go to for Jacksonville.

We really enjoyed staying is this historic bed and breakfast! The rooms have all been upgraded and are super comfortable. Coffee (French Press) and the home made breakfast are amazing! Eric goes out of his way to make you feel at home. We brought our puppy with us and it was perfect for her too! We will stay here every chance we get.

I didn't stay here but I did have afternoon tea in their tea room. The customer service was great. I would definitely do it again. Pictured is a table for one. They do parties, too. One of their finger sandwiches had sliced cucumbers on it, and it was so yummy.????

We stayed in the Park Suite on July 12th. It was a spacious room that was VERY comfortable. They have updated the room without spoiling the historic B & B feel.
Breakfast was delicious. Freshly prepared to order omelets were flavorful and full of fillings.
The staff was very helpful and ensured that every need was met.
