| Introduction |
| The Covington extends to all its guests the elegant comfort once reserved aboard historic work vessels for company executives and VIPs. The boat is trimmed stem to stern in mahogany, brass and bronze. Windows and portals in the boat's tiered design draw light into each room. Sleeping quarters feature a mix of ingenious built-in cabinets with simple furnishings from the Covington's work era. Salvaged fixtures, nautical antiques and historic art provide tasteful reminders of the River and the Inn's past life. |
|
| The Inn is one of America's few floating bed and breakfasts, buoyed and buffered as it is by the Mississippi River. Whether blanketed by snow or passed by summer's silent barges, its riverside setting soothes and captivates. Yet the Bed and Breakfast sits moored within the reflection of downtown St. Paul's towering skyline. The Capitol, museums, theater, fine dining and shopping wait just across the bridge. Offering a place for both quiet getaway and city spree, the Covington does it all. |
| The four staterooms are designed to capitalize on the structural nooks and crannies of the three-story boat. Each has a private bath, deck access, a working fireplace and air conditioning, with daily housekeeping service. Telephone and modem hook-up are available upon request. Rooms are television-free. |
| The Covington and its crew are set up to make your stay as private or sociable as you like. Beyond the privacy of the staterooms, the salon provides a comfortable gathering place. Lit with clerestory windows and furnished with fireside couches and window-front tables, the salon offers a great place for breakfasting, letter writing and browsing through the Covington library of historic river and shipping books. Our breakfasts, cooked in the boat's galley, pamper you with just a touch of the gourmet while fueling a full-day's exploration. |
