We just returned from our stay at The Rose Hotel, and I can’t say enough wonderful things about it! The room was beautiful, the view was breathtaking, and breakfast each morning was absolutely delicious. Every staff member we encountered was kind and welcoming, which made our stay feel extra special. Just steps away is the cutest little corner shop with amazing ice cream and coffee…do yourself a favor and try the Bigfoot Frappe (you’ll thank me later!). The Rose Hotel truly feels like stepping back in time to a place where you can slow down, relax, and soak in the beauty around you. The drive itself was gorgeous, and the nearby historical sites and landmarks made it even more memorable. If I could give this place 10 stars, I would! Thank you to everyone who made our stay unforgettable - we’re already planning our next visit.

I stayed at the Historic Rose Hotel on Friday night and absolutely loved it. The view of the Ohio River is stunning, especially at sunset. The room was clean, comfortable, and full of charm. The historic character of the hotel is beautifully preserved, and the staff was warm and welcoming. A peaceful and unique getaway, I’ll definitely be back!
