The hotel is next to construction that limits parking and access to walking trails. There are bikes for guest use but no pool or gym facilities on the property. Parking in town is ridiculous and the hotel while beautifully remodeled is a 20 min walk to town. I was disappointed with a $20 valet parking fee when there was no other parking choice. The staff was friendly and accommodating.

Guests have access to the Roof top lounge. It was wonderful. We went at night, we sat outside, they have heated and give you blankets to use. They have a full menu. The food was delish in both restaurants.

Overall, wonderful stay. Beautiful location, nice room and great food at the restaurant! Would come back. They really need to figure out the valet situation - it is currently a disaster. At peak hours it is borderline unsafe - longs line of cars and vehicles being left unattended. The process of dropping off and picking up our car proved time consuming and stressful. Defeats the purpose of providing valet service.

Rooms are lovely and river views are beautiful. Showers are amazing. Dining choices are excellent, but easy stroll into New Hope for many more excellent dining choices. Roof bar is not to be missed as well as deck bar off of main Odette's dining room.

The hotel and the room were very nice, clean and comfortable. The hotel is walking distance to main street where there are many restaurants and activities around, including Bucks County Playhouse. The hotel restaurant's foods were delicious. Just a note that the hotel has only valet parking, no self parkin option.

The website did not say anything that valet was required or that we would be charged for parking. The valet system was a mess. Too many cars not enough staff. Took 30 minutes to reach the valet. If you ever expect to get any sleep, forget about it. We were kept up till 12 midnight because of all the noise coming from the kitchen. And the noise resumed at 7am. We didn’t get a winkle of sleep.

Fantastic place to stay! From the moment we arrived the valet,front desk and all other staff was very pleasant and helpful. Although our room wasn’t ready till almost check in time we made the best of the hotel. Roof bar, and dinner at Odette’s was fantastic! Great, clean room with a comfy bed and shower. Definitely will be back when the weather is warm to explore the area more and get a riverside room as well! Great stay!

A master class in hotel design and service. Beautiful property and peaceful setting on the river. Rooftop drinks and brunch at Odettes were great. Valet/check-in was smooth. Room was very clean and comfortable, great bedding and pillows. Enjoyed the large bathroom and amenities like the rainfall shower. Quick walk on the towpath to downtown new hope for shopping and restaurants. 10/10 would stay again

I read some negative reviews and was not sure what we would experience. We were greeted by kind and personable staff who answered all our questions. Our room was clean with a beautiful river view. The food was tasty and arrived quickly to our table for both dinner and breakfast. Keep in mind this was over Christmas Eve and the staff never missed a beat. We had a wonderful experience at the RiverHouse and will definitely be back.

I had to fix one of the broken lamps next to the bed. There were spiders in the bathroom. The seal to the shower door was broken which caused water to get onto the bathroom floor causing a safety hazard. I also had to pay an additional $20 for valet which I never used. Would not recommend staying here for the price.

Pretty hotel, but a few issues. Cable system had to be re booted for some reason so a lot of the channels did not work, our mini fridge did not work so they replaced it with a mini freezer such that we thought it was still a fridge and it ruined all our food and wine, our room was over the dishwasher that ran numerous times and the bed was very low to the ground

The positives: The hotel was immaculate and a short walk into town. The bed was super comfortable and the rooms were large with a beautiful balcony. The negatives: I was traveling with my young daughter on a Saturday night. I wish I had known there was a wedding that night. It’s a small property and the walls/ceiling shook with music/dancing so we didn’t sleep until midnight. It took well over 20 mins to check me in because I booked through hotels.com. We had just come in from 4 hours in the car and I would have appreciated a drink while I waited for them to figure it out or some acknowledgment. Instead, when I checked out, once again they said it looks like we need to charge your cc. Once again waiting for the front desk to figure out their issue.

Odette's is a lovely hotel within walking distance of New Hope's eateries, pubs, shops and the Bucks County Playhouse. Their staff is welcoming, friendly and helpful. Many thanks to: Rebecca, who checked us in; Amber, our rooftop dinner waitress; Eileen, the main level restaurant hostess; and Bella, our breakfast waitress. Bella is a new employee, and perfectly complements the vibe of Odette's, as do all of the staff we met. My companion and I were celebrating our 70th birthdays, and he called ahead to reserve a table for dinner, and was told they'd do something special. We were treated to a huge cookie decorated with Happy Birthday written on it and swirls of whipped cream around the edge. What a nice touch! My one complaint is that the soap, shampoo and conditioner bottles, attached to the wall of the shower, were WAAAAY too high for me, at 5'3. The shower floor is tile so slippery when wet, and the only stationary hand-hold is on the opposite side of the shower, making trying to use those products a potential safety hazard. Otherwise, our stay was delightful!
