Top Downtown Hotel Reviews

The Resort at Schlitterbahn

10/10 Excellent

"Highly recommend staying here. They take care of you like family!"

Baymont Inn & Suites by Wyndham San Marcos Outlet Malls

10/10 Excellent

"Dont judge a book by the cover. From the outside, this may look like an older hotel. But the rooms have been newly renovated. They are very spacious, comfortable, accommodating, clean, and relaxing. They are on par with other major hotels. I recommend staying here if you're passing through town or if you are planning to visit the outlet mall! The staff is wonderful and was able to fix an issue with my television!"

Hacienda del Rio

10/10 Excellent

"This was a last minute choice due to our original trip being affected by the Hurricane.It was a great pick. The hotel is so cute. The food surprisingly yummy. Grounds are well kept. You get 10 percent off float fees with Paddle Texas on property and easy access to both the Comal and Guadalupe. Favorite hotel memory is having coffee on the elevated deck facing the pool and the river. Fabulous location 10 minutes from all the great stuff in Gruene.Close to many dining options.Nice staff."
