Riverdale Inn is a historic, family-run bed and breakfast praised for its charming restored mansion, friendly hosts, comfortable rooms, and delicious made-to-order breakfasts, set in a walkable neighborhood near the river, restaurants, shops, and downtown Jacksonville.
Guests appreciate easy on-site parking and thoughtful touches like a small honor bar and occasional afternoon tea. Common drawbacks include occasional musty odors or worn furnishings in some rooms, spotty Wi-Fi in the carriage house, and isolated reports of road noise, light seepage, or a too-firm mattress. Expect a cozy, characterful stay with warm service and a hearty breakfast.

Such a convenient location, right in the middle of so many Jacksonville tourist destinations (restaurants, museums, shopping). Upon check-in, the parking lot was spacious with both standard parking spaces and electronic vehicle chargers available. The staff was so friendly and showed us to our room, room one on the second floor with a beautiful view of the area. The rooms are spacious, amenities plentiful, and we enjoyed the comfort of the room. The next morning, we enjoyed a cooked to order breakfast which was absolutely delicious. This restored mansion is an ideal bed and breakfast, and I would highly recommend it.

Loved the spot. We arrived late and after hours and had no problem getting in. There was a plate with cake and an honor bar which we took advantage of. The breakfast provided was wonderful. Unique property with a lot of character. You can walk to lots of restaurants. I would definitely stay again when visiting Jacksonville!

This was my first stay here. This B B was priced about the same as the chain hotels but it had WAY easier parking (drive right in and free) and the owner/operator was very welcoming. The free included breakfast was cooked perfect and the french pressed coffee was delicious. The bed was comfortable and the unit even had a washer dryer. I will stay here again the next time I'm in Jacksonville.

Our first time staying here and staying again in a couple of months. Beds were so comfy and staff very friendly. Definitely better than staying at a hotel. Great breakfast choices and so good. Loved the bar for a nightcap and minibar in room, as well as record player in the bar. Nice atmosphere. Loved sitting on the porch in the morning and the character of every room. Also in walking distance to the water, restaurants and activities.

Lovely historic B&B with loads of charm and character. Family run. Super friendly and attentive. Great breakfast. My only gripe is that I totally missed that the Riverdale Inn serves afternoon tea (which need reservations 24 hours in advance) Will definitely return to this property and will be sure to book tea!

We enjoyed our stay at Riverdale Inn! The innkeeper welcomed us to park in their parking lot early, so we could get out and see Jacksonville. The Riverwalk is only a few blocks away and is only a 2 mile walk to the downtown area. Our room was clean, spacious and comfortable. The innkeeper, Eric, happily gave us feedback to our questions. In the morning, we thoroughly enjoyed our breakfast, made to order by the chef! We would happily stay again! Many thanks!

The Riverdale Inn is beautifully restored and there are some lovely rooms in the main house. We had one night in a pretty, spacious light room at the top of the house. Unfortunately our second and third nights were in “Lancaster, a premium double room” in a converted garage in a second building in the car park. It was dark and depressing (the only lights being two bedside lights, although the newly renovated bathroom was well lit). The furniture was well worn and the whole ambience was dreary and incredibly disappointing. The only outside light came through a small window overlooking a neighbouring property with people walking through and a window in the door. This was an expensive mistake, we would never have booked it if we had known what it was like.

The staff was very friendly, and the main house is beautiful. They offer many different options for breakfast which were incredible. The only drawback was the Wi-Fi for the carriage house was not reliable - but staying at a quaint bed and breakfast isn’t about having incredible Wi-Fi. Unfortunately for us it was needed, but we were able to enable hot spots on our phones and crisis was averted.Overall we enjoyed our stay. It really is in a beautiful part of Jacksonville.

We were arriving late, they had called ahead to leave details about our late arrival. They seemed very accommodating to late arrivals. Breakfast was delicious in the morning! The room was spacious, huge bathroom. We somehow had a complementary upgrade- which was nice! Only negative was that the fan? or AC? made a loud ticking noise throughout the night.

It almost feels otherworldly as if you've gone a bit back in time. The bed was very comfortable and I always love a double sink! Whenever I visit Jacksonville, I'll be sure to book here again.

I was on a multi-day road trip and stopped in Jacksonville for a concert at the Florida Theatre; the Riverdale Inn was an easy 5 minutes or so drive to the theatre. The inn itself was excellent. Easy to find, easy check-in, friendly staff. It's an older, historic building (which I love) in a fairly quiet neighborhood. Comfortable bed, soothing shower. Quiet. I'm not a breakfast guy, so I can't comment there. This is a nice place that I would stay at again.

Breakfast next morning was 5 Star. This is not your "free" breakfast offered at other establishments - but truly delicious and delightful.

We had a wonderful stay in this historic home! It's been beautifully restored and offers every imaginable amenity, including a delicious breakfast and French press coffee.

Wish we could've stayed longer!

We enjoyed our stay at Riverdale Inn! The innkeeper welcomed us to park in their parking lot early, so we could get out and see Jacksonville. The Riverwalk is only a few blocks away and is only a 2 mile walk to the downtown area. Our room was clean, spacious and comfortable. The innkeeper, Eric, happily gave us feedback to our questions. In the morning, we thoroughly enjoyed our breakfast, made to order by the chef! We would happily stay again! Many thanks!

Riverdale Inn was just as described. Beautiful grounds and beautiful Inn. The couple were extremely helpful. While we were there, we walked around and spotted Cinco Tacos. The food was delicious. Oh, and the breakfast offered at the Inn was absolutely scrumptious! We will definitely be staying there again.

We had a wonderful stay. Any time we are in Jacksonville, we will definitely go back! The bed was extremely comfortable - like sleeping in a cloud. The breakfast was very good and filling. The staff was very accommodating and friendly. Highly recommended!

I was on a multi-day road trip and stopped in Jacksonville for a concert at the Florida Theatre; the Riverdale Inn was an easy 5 minutes or so drive to the theatre. The inn itself was excellent. Easy to find, easy check-in, friendly staff. It's an older, historic building (which I love) in a fairly quiet neighborhood. Comfortable bed, soothing shower. Quiet. I'm not a breakfast guy, so I can't comment there. This is a nice place that I would stay at again.

Such a convenient location, right in the middle of so many Jacksonville tourist destinations (restaurants, museums, shopping). Upon check-in, the parking lot was spacious with both standard parking spaces and electronic vehicle chargers available. The staff was so friendly and showed us to our room, room one on the second floor with a beautiful view of the area. The rooms are spacious, amenities plentiful, and we enjoyed the comfort of the room. The next morning, we enjoyed a cooked to order breakfast which was absolutely delicious. This restored mansion is an ideal bed and breakfast, and I would highly recommend it.

We had a pleasant experience at the Riverdale Inn. The place was beautifully furnished as you expect from a traditional bed and breakfast.The staff was friendly and helpful. Walking in the area brings you to many cafes, restaurants and bars. Nearby parks give you an opportunity to walk alongside the river. We will definitely come back.

What a gem ! You can walk to most of the local attractions and restaurants.The river is a mere 200ft away. Plenty of free parking on the property itself. Owners are very friendly and go out their way to make sure that you are comfortable. Delicious breakfast is a bonus.

VERY enjoyable experience :) Should my future plans have me in JAX again - I shall definitely come back. The staff upon arrival were very helpful, polite and all around NICE. Breakfast next morning was 5 Star. This is not your "free" breakfast offered at other establishments - but truly delicious and delightful.

Loved the spot. We arrived late and after hours and had no problem getting in. There was a plate with cake and an honor bar which we took advantage of. The breakfast provided was wonderful. Unique property with a lot of character. You can walk to lots of restaurants. I would definitely stay again when visiting Jacksonville!

Exceptional additions that you don't normally get at a hotel. Several choices for breakfast (included in price) such as eggs any way, avacado toast and waffles. Beats those continental breakfasts at hotels. Can also have afternoon tea at additional reasonable cost, extremely worth it. The food was great. Beds are comfortable and great staff. Also love sitting on the front porch with an evening drink.

Lovely historic B&B with loads of charm and character. Family run. Super friendly and attentive. Great breakfast. My only gripe is that I totally missed that the Riverdale Inn serves afternoon tea (which need reservations 24 hours in advance) Will definitely return to this property and will be sure to book tea!
