Central location, great breakfast, lots of history, courteous staff, owners are extremely nice, April and Shawna in the hotel bar/restaurant are FANTASTIC! We had a very comfortable, pleasant stay. If we ever head back to Grafton, the Ruebel is where we will stay!

My boyfriend and I stayed one night at this hotel at the end of March. They had just gotten 14 inches of snow a couple days before and since it was a Tuesday night there wasn't much going on. In fact, we were the only people who ate at the restaurant that evening and also the only guests staying in... More

Mo and his staff were great. The hotel was fantastic. It really gave you the feeling of an old time "riverboat" hotel. They put a lot of work to make the rooms comfortable and kept the feel of the hotel with modern touches. My wife and I came for a haunted tour and stayed an extra night. Our second night... More

This hotel is lovely and the staff is kind and very accommodating. The owner Mo was wonderful and made sure we had a pleasant stay. I'm very puzzled by a few of the negative reviews on here because we found the rooms to be very nice and comfortable and the management to be nothing short of excellent. We had a... More

We stayed at the Ruebel Hotel as part of a "ghost hunting" overnight package. Although the room was small, it was very clean and comfortable. Mo and his staff go above and beyond to make every guest feel welcome. The food is reasonably priced and delicious. We will definitely stay there again. If you are looking for a quiet getaway,...

Our room had a fridge, flat screen tv, pillow top bed and was very clean. I don't know what the place looked like before renovations but it is really nice now. Check in was easy and quick. We had the breakfast buffet and it was a deal for $6.95. (bacon, sausage, eggs, tator tots, biscuits and gravy and oranges). We... More

I stayed here a few weeks back for a bachelorette party. The rooms are so cozy and decorated well. We loved the atmosphere of the entire town! The bar was so much fun...April and Karen made sure we had a great time! We all talked about how we wanted to stay there again soon! Thank you for such great service!

We stayed here in July. It's a wonderful little hotel with a great bar and great service. The owners give a warm welcome and are accomodating and friendly! It was a nice (short detour) stop between the busy cities of Chicago and St Louis.
