Book a Bidwell Cottage

"Room was really nice. Clean. Beds were comfy and linens were crisp and new feeling."

"It was what i needed a clean safe place to sleep."

"We walked in and walked out. Critters of all kinds—a probably cute rodent skittered by right when we opened the door. There was a live cockroach on the fridge. Signs of bedbugs on the mattress. The front desk attendant was great, though."

"Several TV channels didn't work. Breakfast okay but I've had much better. Room clean and quiet. "

"Staff was friendly, breakfast was a pleasant surprise, overall pleasant stay with courteous and helpful staff!"

"This hotel is being refurbished currently. There are construction items in the stairwell and even in our hallway. However, the room was clean, the bed was comfortable and firm, the bathroom was large and clean. Plenty of room in the king bed room. Pillows were good, soft ones and firm ones. Enough for a knee pillow! The tub wouldn't drain fast enough and there was standing water. However, the water pressure was more than ample! It hit the wall so hard that I thought it made a hole! The toilet handle had to be held to flush. Front desk was helpful. No elevator! Breakfast was so so. Convenient location. It was quiet in our room."

"If you’re looking for a place that rewards you for going a little off course, this is exactly that kind of destination. We weren’t able to arrive until late at night, and while the road there certainly had its fair share of twists and turns, the directions provided by the owners turned the journey into part of the experience. It felt less like navigating and more like a quiet adventure—spotting old landmarks along the way and realizing we were exactly where we were meant to be. Once we arrived, a solar-lit pathway gently illuminated step by step as we made our way in, creating a welcoming and almost storybook-like entrance that immediately set the tone for our stay. Our daughter absolutely loved the outdoor setup—especially the swings and bars that gave her a chance to burn off energy before and after our long drive. It was such a thoughtful touch. Inside, the cabin lived up to every expectation. The bedding and accommodations were perfect, and “cozy” truly is the best word to describe the space. Being pet-friendly with no extra charge was a huge bonus. Waking up to the view overlooking the Ohio River into West Virginia was something special. It’s the kind of view you wish you had more time to sit with, and we genuinely regretted only staying one night. We may not know when or why we’ll find ourselves back in Gallipolis, but now we know we have a reason. Do not hesitate to stay here. Take the extra time, go a little out of your way—you won’t regret it. All the best!"

"Excellent weekend. Great place to relax and unwind."

"Dirty, noisy and understaffed. Although the sheets were clean the floor was dirty in the hallway and in the room and there was a very prominent skid mark on the easy chair. Thankfully the sheets were clean and the heater was quiet. But people were taking and coming and going most of the night. Amazing this place cost so much for that kind of experience. "
