We stayed one night at the Delta Queen hotel, looking for something different. We got it. The boat is 85-years old and it shows, unfortunately. While most of the staff tried very hard, you can only put so much make-up on an 85-year old dowager. Our room was more or less what you would expect from an aging riverboat. It... More

When you spend a night on this beautifully restored riverboat on the Tennessee River. You can imagine what it was like to be a passenger when it was cruising the Mississippi decades ago. Past presidents, famous actors, and gamblers have slept in the same rooms! Loved it!

The day we arrived there seemed to be some troubles going on with the staff and their pay checks. Check-in was chaotic and quite unorganized. The room and bathroom were very small, as to be expected on a boat. Do not choose valet parking because parking is free on the street in front from 4pm till 9am. Breakfast should have... More

The premise of the boat is awesome. So enjoyed the Tennessee River. The website is nothing as it appears. We went into the bar at 10:00 and was told they were closed. Website said 11:00. The food was lacking. Get new management for this beautiful venue!!!!!

You will feel like you've been transported back in time. Yes, the rooms are compact but we spent little time in the room. The Delta Queen was built during an era when folks actually socialized with each other. The entire staff onboard were gracious and accommodating of any request. The breakfast buffet provided an abundant and delicious selection of food.... More

We stayed May 10th and 11th, 2012 and just loved the historic aspect of The Delta Queen. Staff was very cordial and helpful. Meals were just fine, and we have a variety of food limitations. We were excited that we got the cabin that Jimmy Carter and his wife and daughter stayed in while he was President in 1979! We... More

We got a 2night 3day package on LivingSocial several months back. We finally got a chance to go for the weekend. Despite overcast skies and rain we had a nice time. Our Deluxe room on the 3rd deck was nice. Too many forget this was built in 1926 so you can expect the amenities you would find at the Hyatt.... More

We stayed here for 2 nights in January, and yes I'm just now getting around to writing a review. We stayed in a deluxe room on the main floor and didn't experience any of the problems others have mentioned. The only exception would be the hot water at the sink - it got warm but not hot. The shower however... More

Yes, the rooms are small - just like any "cruise" room. But there is plenty of room to spread out in the sitting lounges, the deck rocking chairs, and even the city park where the ship is anchored. I especially enjoyed the close proximity of the Delta Queen to many of the city's attractions. The aquarium and other riverside attractions... More
