    The facility is clean and spacious and the staff was pleasant. The decor is tasteful and suitable…read morefor a wide variety of events. The dance floor is huge and the giant mirrored ball was a nice retro touch. The menu at our event included catfish which was cooked nicely but was painfully salty. The remainder of the meal was assorted comfort foods which were fine but a little underwhelming. Everything was served cafeteria style and had a very casual vibe. It was more like a school lunchroom than a wedding in terms of quality, plating and presentation. I'd 100% recommend the venue for an event but would approach their catering abilities with realistic expectations.

    This venue is out in Paducah, Ky and can trick you if you are judging a venue by outside looks…read morealone. My husband and I had the pleasure of attending a friends wedding today at this location. The event hall is located close to the Ohio River (always a plus!) and appears to be very small from the outside. We parked on the street directly across from the venue, I didn't see an easily accessible parking lot connected to the building for guest use but there is public parking on the street and behind the flood wall. When you first walk inside there is a small reception type desk on your left and bathrooms on your right. Go through the main doors and there is a very spacious area complete with carpet and hardwood floors. The walls have mirrored archways to help give space to the venue; there is lots of ceiling space and great acoustics! The main focal point I noticed was the bar (no, not just because I fancy a drink or three) because of the giant wood banisters and it just gives that old time feel. This place was a nice little venue (there was about 50-60 people) thats updated, very clean, and close to the river. Bonus points: there is a small arts district and that quaint downtown feel a few blocks over! My husband and I both decided we were coming back for a small weekend trip to explore all the restaurants and museums we drove by!

    I called ahead and use the front desk to make reservations rather than online…read more Very pleasant staff Online. AND in person. They remember us coming once a year to visit family. I got a deal by paying a month in advance. I passed on the breakfast buffet deal. ( a little extra per day) I've seen it. It's good. But I'm here in Paducah for meat and potatoes in the evening. Saving appetite. Rooms cleaned every day. Good waterfront view. Not enough parking Internet drops off occasionally. I love it here.

    I relocated to this hotel after an unpleasant experience at the Laquinta, (don't go there). This…read moreplace was luxury in comparison. Staff was all pleasant and constantly checking in on me to see what I needed if anything. The hotel is newer and still presents as such. The room I was upgraded to had a balcony with view of river. It was nice to have this for relaxing early in the morning and doing yoga. The bathroom could use more bars to hang towels and clothing as there are only 2 hangers on the bathroom door and that's all. Breakfast is not included unless you specifically book with it. It may be better to just pay for it outright depending on the number of guests in your party. There is plenty of parking around the hotel and you can enter thru side doors with room key. I loved the cleanliness of the hotel facilities, my room, and the ice machine area. All of this matters to me when I'm staying somewhere. Amethyst was so sweet when we checked in and cheerful. I love joyed the Christmas decorations throughout the hotel and felt very comfortable during my stay. I did not try out the bar or the burger spot downstairs.

    Our stay was INCREDIBLE!…read more First, apologies on how long it took to get to this review. It's been go go go since we returned. However, our stay here was so amazing that it hasn't left our minds. So, the "bed" part of bed and breakfast? So comfortable! The rooms were amazing and had such a sense of history. The rooms were very spacious and beautifully decorated. Vintage wallpaper and bed dressings give you the full effect of traveling in time to a bygone era. The showers and bathtubs were great. The tubs were the claw foot standalone type tubs and not the typical Home Depo special you get in motels and hotels. There's just something about showering in one of those tubs that takes you back. However if you want to use them, there are indeed wonderful modern jacuzzis available in the rooms as well which are super relaxing after a day of walking around and sightseeing and shopping. Things were very comfortable inside despite it being very hot and so humid outside. And there were extra fans if you needed them and you wanted to stay cooler too. The furniture is actual wood and not the cheap particle board stuff used with in so many places today. The wood just feels "rich and elegant." From the outside, you get such a sense of history. The place is absolutely beautiful. Now... the "breakfast" part of bed and breakfast was so filling. You will eat like you've never eaten before and will want more but won't have the space to put it. I wish we could have stayed an extra day even just for the food. The owner asks about your preferences and needs and does such a great job with the food. She makes a killer sweet tea as well! The place was remarkably maintained and the owner was so welcoming. She felt like a family member we haven't seen in so long, like a grandmother to us and our kids. She was super flexible about the check in and check out times as well, enabling us to get a quick shower in before leaving so that after sight seeing we didn't need to sit in our sweaty clothes for the next leg of the trip. We so much wanted to stay longer! It was such a great experience there is no doubt that we will stay here every time we come to Metropolis. Oh and I should mention that when you stay here, you do get admission to the Superman museum included in the cost which is just icing on the cake. So really, why are you still reading? Book a stay. You will not be disappointed. Five stars, fifty stars, five hundred stars!

    If I could rate this fabulous bread and breakfast a 10 star review I most definitely would. Lori…read morewas gracious and informative that made our stay in Metropoles one to remember. Breakfast was prepared to perfection the room was elegant and comfortable. We will definitely return to the Riverview Mansion
