About the Hotel
The charm of the Old South meets the intimate style of Europe and the rich history of Mud Island at River Inn of Harbor Town. Overlooking the Mississippi River, River Inn has impressive architecture, accented by gas-lit lanterns, decorative wrought iron, blooming window boxes and a panoramic view from the Terrace on the rooftop.
The traditional warm and inviting lobby features a sparkling crystal chandelier, a wood-burning fireplace set off by an 1850’s-era New Orleans mantel, wood flooring from an old Virginia textile mill, along with Oriental rugs, original oil paintings, fresh flowers, and the soft glow of candles. In addition to 28 luxury boutique and upscale lodging accommodations and suites, River Inn offers several dining options, including: long time Memphis favorite, Paulette’s Restaurant with its cozy Little Bar, casual Tug’s neighborhood grill with outdoor dining on the patio and in the courtyard, and the Terrace with drinks, small plates, and an unsurpassed view.

Reviews for River Inn of Harbor Town
Hidden Gem on Mud Island
I was so glad to find this charming little hotel right on Mud Island! Don't stay in downtown Memphis when you can experience the tranquility and beauty of Harbor Town. This hotel is safe, immaculately clean, and has several restaurants to chose from. The desk clerk was friendly and there's plenty of free parking. I will be staying here again. Highly recommended!

Great place
I stay at the River Inn frequently. I love this place. They know me and treat me like family. The beds are very comfortable and the location is very safe. They are conveniently located to several dining places with in walking distance. Can’t go wrong with this hotel.

Lovely Inn by the Mississippi
This is a serene boutique inn overlooking the Mississippi from within a lovely upscale neighbourhood. Tug is a place to relax with a nice, casual menu and cocktails.Paulette’s is upscale with a historic past. The Terrace combines views of the river with funky artwork and lovely appetizers to accompany drinks. But what really makes The River Inn special and welcoming is each and every member of the service team. John, Judy, and Skye.

Great Place to stay!!
We had a great stay! Portwine for turn down was exceptional. All staff was kind. Next door breakfast was spot on. Very quiet location and the on site restaurants for food/beverage was perfect after a long day of traveling. Highly recommend.

the perfect place to stay
This is one of the loveliest hotels I've ever stayed at. It is quiet and elegant with fabulous views of the Mississippi which is only a stone's throw away. The staff is kind and patient and the complimentary evening glass of wine is a very nice touch.
