The Woodview Villa (Inn) was a private dwelling until April 1946 when it was taken over by the partnership of Daniel P. Delaney and William F. Koepke who began running it as an Inn. Subsequently, Mr. Delaney and his wife took full ownership and added the Garden Suites in the early 1950's. Shortly after, the Inn and Restaurant were given the name ' The Athlone Inn and Restaurant', which remained the name until closing in 2014. The Woodview is a 10 room Inn, which includes breakfast with every night stay. Today your hosts, John and Steve, give a nod to this grand lady's former history and glory by celebrating her original name. Welcome to The Woodview Inn.

This inn was so welcoming! What really set the stage was a phone call we received before we even got there. We were running late and they called to ask if they should keep the restaurant open for us! I’ve never had an inn take the time to reach out and be so friendly and welcoming before!

Amazing welcoming hosts with incredible attention to detail. The place was very cute and a close walk in to town. Breakfast was delivered to your door, even mimosas included! They also gave us some tips for our further travel. They also helped to carry our luggage to our rooms

Once again, it is with great pleasure that I write a review for John and Stephen and their Inn. This was my third 3 night booking in the last two years and I must say I enjoy this Inn more and more with each visit. The rooms are esthetically pleasing and comfortable; their staff are attentive and devoted to their respective duties. I had the opportunity this time to experience Sunday Brunch as well as my usual evening meals and I have to say that your dining experience will be most pleasurable thanks to a warm atmosphere, great service and a menu that will please even the most fastidious of diners.

Can't say enough good things about this Inn and its owners and staff. It is beautifully situated, decorated with a lovely welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel at home. Cozy places by the fireplace on the main floor to read or have a glass of wine and chat. The rooms were well equipped and had a comfortable cozy bed. We ate in the fine dining room for the Sunday Brunch and the food was first class, had a lovely presentation and plentiful. The customer service is excellent. The Inn is located near walking trails, stores, parks and restaurants all within walking distance. Lots things to do. Steve and John, the owners, were amazing, friendly and helpful. I would go back in a minute. Thanks S&J, for making our weekend a memorable one.

I would highly recommend this Inn for multiple reasons. The owners are simply amazing human beings, very nice people that make you feel like an old friend that is visiting. The beauty of this house, how it was renovated with such taste and authenticity. Our room was so beautiful and inviting, made you want to stay for ever. I am having a hard time putting my feelings about this wonderful in words. I would not change a thing from my stay, and I cannot wait to go back. The restaurant that is also located in the Inn is nothing short of excellent, the choice that is offered on the menu is exactly like the Inn, simply perfect.

Stephen, John & the staff made us feel very welcome from the moment we pulled into the parking area. Our garden room was very comfortable & attractive for an overnight stay. We had a delicious meal in an intimate setting. Our short and sweet experience was a very pleasant surprise, and we certainly want to stay in this hotel next time we are in the area!

We booked this place mainly because of the great reviews. I can't understand why they were so positive. Maybe they were written when the previous owners were running it? We were in the "garden suite", an extremely small and basic room and tiny bathroom, basically a Motel 6 for a much higher price. The sheets on the bed had many particles of dirt on them and looked like they hadn't been washed. Breakfast was a joke, they threw a few cheap snacks from a convenience store in cooler. We went over to the main house for coffee, which the housekeeper gave us and was also bad. Never saw the owners again after the initial greeting. Next time we'll save ourselves some money and just go to an actual Motel 6.

It is unfortunate that you did not enjoy your stay. We can assure you that almost all our reviews are very current and have been submitted under our ownership. We have never once put unwashed sheets on our beds. Our breakfast coolers do not come from a convenience store - convenience stores in our town do not carry prosecco, fresh fruit, baked goods, etc. individually. If you had wanted to spend time with the innkeepers, it is unfortunate that you did not inform any of the staff. We do try to make ourselves available if possible, but we are a busy inn and often times our schedules are unforgiving. It is also unfortunate that you waited until you left the property to voice any concerns - reviews are sometimes penned with the courage of anonymity, or the undertones of other stresses. We are a unique property with each suite having different offerings. All are well represented on our website and we assume that our guests fully research what they have booked before check-in. If you enjoy a Motel 6 experience, it is clearly obvious why our 5 star inn must have been a disappointment.

We really enjoyed our 3 night stay at the Woodview. We were greeted by Steve who took us for a tour of the Inn as well as our room. Its a lovely building and appropriately updated. A continental breakfast is provided every day - we really enjoyed it (the mimosa fixings were a bonus) and took it to the outdoor patio which is a lovely add to the building. If you are someone who likes bacon and eggs, it won't cut it but it was perfect for us. We had dinner at Graydons our first night. A wonderful meal with amazing service. They have a great menu and a very good wine list, many of which are quite well priced. The Inn is situated in an awesome location. We could walk everywhere in Gananoque which was great. We enjoyed a couple of other local restaurants, had a beer at the local brewery as well as ice cream. We took a 1000 Island boat tour and it was a short walk from the Inn. It was a perfect spot in a perfect location.…

My wife and I spent three nights at the inn. Steve and John are warm, welcoming and knowledgeable hosts and the inn is a jewel box. We enjoyed a terrific dinner at the inn from an exceptional chef and Melanie was a wonderful server. Highly recommended!
