About this property
Welcome to Water View Inn
Water View Inn is a 4.4-rated hotel situated at 501 Water St in Genoa, Wisconsin. It offers a straightforward and practical setting suitable for visitors focused on sightseeing and exploring the local area. The property’s amenities include free Wi-Fi, free parking, a restaurant, and a bar, with a pet- and kid-friendly environment but no breakfast service, pool, or fitness center available.
The hotel’s location provides convenient access to several nearby attractions. Guests can enjoy outdoor activities like skiing and snowboarding at Mt. La Crosse Ski & Snowboard or visit cultural sites such as the Great River Road Interpretive Center. The proximity to Lock and Dam Number 8 adds to the points of interest in the area. La Crosse Regional Airport is approximately a 41-minute drive away, making arrival and departure reasonably accessible.
While the overall rating is favorable, with a 4.4 score from 37 reviews, the hotel’s suitability for visitors is moderate, scoring 2.9 in terms of recreation and getting around. This suggests that while the location supports sightseeing, some travelers might find limited options for leisure activities directly on-site. The property’s straightforward approach appeals to practical travelers looking for essential services without extra luxury features.
The emphasis on pet-friendliness and family accommodation makes Water View Inn a practical choice for guests traveling with animals or children. With no smoke-free designation, guests who prioritize this may want to inquire in advance.
