    Photo Album

    Like stepping into the pages of the mystery writer's classic "Murder on the Orient Express," this suite conjures images of the magnificent train that was the ultimate form of European travel between Paris and Constantinople in the 1800s. The opulent private suite features a berth-style king size bed, an elegant seating area with fireplace, Tiffany-style lamps, and a private outdoor garden terrace. The exotic suite also offers special spa amenities including a tiled steam room with a Kohler water tower massaging shower and separate whirlpool room with a deep oversized tub.This richly decorated salon is reminiscent of an English gentlemen's library in an old country estate. The handsome sleeping chamber features a pentagonal bed draped in rich fabrics, tufted leather furniture, stained glass windows, and a cozy sitting area in front of an ornate Victorian fireplace. Antique French doors lead into an enormous bath where guests will luxuriate in an ultimate spa experience. Elegantly tiled in Italian Travertine marble, the opulent bath features antique crystal chandeliers, a private water closet, a cushioned window seat, and a large walk-in steam room with an overhead Rainfall shower and built in benches large enough for lounging. Marble columns flank a deep, step-up whirlpool tub where guests can sip champagne and choose between star gazing through the ceiling window and watching the flames dance in the spa's separate fireplace.
    Draped French doors open into this magnificent suite with its spectacular Rococo Revival half-tester walnut bed, down-filled couch, wallpaper featuring richly-colored birds and urns on a chocolate brown background, and built-in bookcases flanking the fireplace. Large windows give guests tranquil garden views below, and a beautiful stained glass window adds to the serenity of the bath.Lovely gardens, trickling fountains, winding paths, intimate benches and ornate wrought iron gates provide a warm welcome hinting at the beauty found within the Rivertown Inn.
    From the moment you step inside this restored Victorian mansion, you will be surrounded by European-style elegance and outstanding levels of personal service. Our mission is to make your stay with us the ultimate experience in luxury, privacy and romance.
