Beautiful property and rooms. Breakfast was wonderful. Only suggestion in our particular room is to change mattress. Felt like we both were laying in a hole.

I’ve seen in many places in Gruene. We really liked this one. Our room was nice and clean, large and our bed was very comfortable. We enjoyed the quietness of the hotel, but being close/within walking distance to everything we wanted to do.

Happened upon the Gruene River Hotel & Retreat on Hotels.com. What a find! Can’t say enough about the staff, accommodations, location, the list goes on and on. Newly renovated back porch is incredible. View off the back of the building is incredible. Wildlife roaming around the property is amazing. Homemade free breakfast was terrific. Each room has a unique layout and motif. The personal attention is the best I’ve ever seen and I’ve stayed at hotels extensively in my life. There aren’t enough stars to give this place what it deserves! We will absolutely be back, likely with family and friends in tow!

This is a lovely and very elegant but comfortable hotel. Gorgeous outdoor patios and it’s right on the river. (Many steps to the riverfront, but they even have a couple of chairs in the river to watch the toobers) Our room was spacious and we had a patio overlooking the hot tub. Easy walk to shopping. Breakfast was delicious, the evening wine and beer was enjoyable and overall it was a most wonderful place to stay. Would definitely stay here again if in Gruene.

I never sleep, ever, but had no issues getting a good nights rest with their cozy beds and pillows. The views were stunning, fireplace in the room was amazing. Breakfast in the mornings was delicious! Loved being able to walk everywhere in Gruene. There is free Pacman! We loved getting to know the kind staff members. Everything was just perfect and we cant wait to return!

Absolutely beautiful property located on the river and steps away from Gruene Hall. Our room was very comfortable and had everything we needed. We enjoyed the complimentary late afternoon beer, wine, and snacks along with the morning breakfast which was outstanding. Great game room with large screen tv, shuffle board and pool table. Overall quiet property with so many amenities, something for everyone! Looking forward to our next visit!

The Gruene Hotel and Retreat was so lovely. I took my husband here for a 60th birthday get-a-way. We couldn’t ask for anything more. Everything was so perfect. We have talked so highly about this place to our friends since we have returned and we will be back soon.

Has all of the amenities you would see in a "resort". Older property, but has the "broke-in" feel. Best beach access. Great live entertainment.

The property at Gruene River Hotel and Retreat was amazing. We stayed in “The Perfect Swing” room and it was gorgeous. The bed was so comfortable, the room was very clean and we had a nice little private balcony. If you want to float the river, they have river access down a beautiful path behind the property.
The staff was so friendly. The breakfast was fresh and delicious. Make this your next romantic getaway when you visit Gruene. We loved it and can’t wait to go back.
4.0
Beautiful facility ruined by loud guests. We were awoken by a woman screaming, not once, but three times at midnight outside in the pool area. Management seemed to condone this behavior as she was celebrating her birthday. There are several nearby bars and restaurants available for such events.
Management needs to decide if they cater to couples wanting to get away for a quiet romantic trip or an event center for groups and reunions.
5.0
Great stay. The daily breakfast is a wonderful treat and delicious. It was great to stay in Gruene and not fe rushed to see everything in one day. The river access is a plus.
5.0
Neat hotel right in Gruene. The room was big and comfortable. Nice deck, although it was too hot while we were there to enjoy it. The people were great. Good complementary wine in the afternoon. Great location right in Gruene - walkable to Gruene hall and all the dining and shopping around there.
5.0
This is a really pretty property! The service was excellent. Just so you know there is quite a steep drop down to the river--125 stone steps--we thought it would be closer to the hotel. You can sit outside on their patio and look down at the river. Also the photo of the pool is a little deceiving in the photos--it is a hot tub which does no good on a 100 degree day! I think they should just turn it into a soaking pool for hot weather--we sure could have used it to cool off!
