Staff were excellent. Location could not be better. Breakfasts really good. Somewhere would definitely return, and many guests we met had been coming again and again over some years
There was nothing negative about our experience at all. All good.

Unbelievable! Absolutely beautiful setting overlooking the river. Wonderful hotel with themed rooms, we stayed in 'wild west' and the room had quirky references to this theme, including a saddle as a toilet roll holder. Bathroom had a copper slipper bath tub. Loved it all!
Fabulous facilities including the outdoor 20 seat hot tub.
We only stayed one night during the holiday season but wish we could have stayed longer. Definitely has the wow factor
Nothing. All fabulous

Superb rooms, spotlessly clean fabulous location. Thoughtfull ice water and snacks available
Breakfast was appaling. Some greasy cremated bacon dried up quiche buscuits and gravy. No bread available, some eggs would have been good. Hardly the 'chef prepared' breakfast they advertised on arrival.

Location , the hotel and views were exceptional. Quant, quiet, fun and beautiful. Breakfast by Garrett was excellent . Cinnamon rolls especially, along with frittata.
All staff were superb, friendly, knowledgeable. Liz, Karen, and Didi.
Only that they were out of bar soap for a day, no big deal though to use liquid soap. Train horn noise in morning was a bit of an issue but that’s just part of historic Gruene.

This was definitely one for the books beautiful hotel with lots of character. If you have never stayed her its the perfect for a romantic couples getaway. It was relaxing private yet all we wanted to do was explore the beautiful scenery. We will definitely be back.
Everything was great!

The location is perfect. The hotel is lovely.
This is the second time I have stayed here and I have the same complaint as last time. The exterior doors to the balconies have a window on them that lets in too much light. There needs to be a curtain over it. Yes there is an adjustable blind but it is not light blocking. The rooms that face the parking lot are really bad about this, there is some kind of flood light that shines through the exterior door right into your face making it impossible to sleep. Booked a room in the back this time, not as bad but there needs to be a curtain over the window too, doesn’t get dark enough in the room for a good nights sleep.

The property is beautiful. The staff is super friendly. The complimentary breakfast is delicious.
Can’t think of any problems.

The property was beautiful and the staff was friendly. The Hemingway room was extremely open and clean. The staff even made sure we had chocolate covered strawberries when we arrived back from our floating trip in the afternoon with a note saying Happy Anniversary. Highly recommend this location.
The bed was a little too soft for my taste. But everyone is different. Do not let that change your mind about staying.

We are enchanted with this hotel. Welcoming, warm, and accommodating staff. Beautiful facilities. Truly gourmet complimentary breakfast from homemade pastries to spinach sausage frittata to biscuits and gravy. River access to floating with our rafts/tubes. In the heart of Gruene!
8.0 / 10.0
Great location and breakfast. There was a feeling of comradery among the guests. Pastries available all the time.
Room was a bit crowded and dated. Very small bathroom but rooms are all unique. Could not get the temperature as low as the thermostat was set. None off those were big issues so we didn’t mention them.
10.0 / 10.0
The building and the staff are amazing, especially the service. The room was superb and we even saw a family of deer right outside. The location is ideal as well as it’s close to the rivers and to all the activities. The game room and library area were really nice with unique games and they have a complimentary wine hour.
