Very quiet and peaceful, the over 200 year old hotel had charm. Management was friendly and helpful. We would gladly stay there again. The view of the Ohio River and the walkway was a nice treat. Price was quite affordable as well.

I spoke to the owner, Martha and she will confirm my credit card to your company needs to be credited for the entire amount charged as we never even got there. I spoke to Martha and she told me to contact Travelocity for credit as this has happened to them previously several times due to where they are located. The online hotels, etc. all show them as closer to the freeway than they actually are. I tried to get a hold of someone to speak to online however; your website only asked specific questions that had absolutely nothing to do with the comments and questions I needed to ask in regards to get our credit. Therefore; I will be expecting a full credit applied to our credit card ending 3940 by tomorrow at the very latest. As far as giving an online review, I will check my credit card pending charges to ensure that the credit has been received and posted against my pending charges on my card.

One of the reasons I love traveling is to find wonderful gems like this place. I randomly picked this hotel on my way across the country. It was the perfect place sitting right on the Ohio river. I loved every aspect of the hotel and the town. I will be coming back on a regular basis now. Thank you Marsha for the hospitality.

Our stay was enjoyable in every manner and aspect. The suite was genuinely the best value ive ever gotten for a hotel. It feels like youre stepping back in time straight unti a scene from a Humphrey Bogart movie when staying there, while also enjoying the modern amenities. Plus, she lady who runs the hotel is very hospitable and kind. The view of the Ohio River is wonderful as well!

Staying at the Empire House Hotel is like stepping back more than 100 years in time, except with all the amenities of a modern first class hotel. Coffee on the veranda, watching barges on the river must be what it was like. The room was spacious and immaculate. The efforts of Marsha to assist us as needed to make the stay enjoyable were greatly appreciated. And, lastly, Rising Sun is a jewel with many things to do and see, or just relax.

We called as we were 15 minutes from the property as directed. When we arrived, we called again and were told that we'd be let in the house in a few minutes. 15 minutes later, after waiting in the heat and humidity, she finally sent her son to open the door.

We enjoyed our stay, very relaxing. Views were amazing. The only thing I was unhappy with and this is no fault of the owner of Empire house its all Expedia…when I was looking online for accommodations I wanted something close to Noahs Ark and it said it was 26 miles…not true. It was over a hour out of the way. We ended up because of this missing the Ark. But as I said it had nothing to do with the charm of the house, we would stay again.

We had a wonderful getaway weekend here in Rising Sun. The 200-year-old Empire House Hotel was exactly what we needed. Our room was small, but very clean and comfortable. Our hostess was gracious and very helpful. We enjoyed dinners at two restaurants within walking distance. We enjoyed the scenic drive along the Ohio River Scenic Byway. We'll be back.

Marcia/Marsha, was very welcoming. She recommended a couple of local eateries, told me about the ferry that crosses the river when I told her I was going over to Kentucky. The area was very quiet and the view of the river is great. The building is very old and some of the rooms are small - a result of adding bathrooms to them. My biggest issue is the room didn't have it's own temperature control. This time of year, through Fall, Winter, and Spring is fine. Not so sure about Summer. I do hope to be able to stay here again.

Room was too crowded. Not much room to move around because of too much furniture. Nice view of the river and close to everything. Very walkable. Would definitely go back but would ask to see if they had a bigger room.
