Super nice people there, it was hot and the AC was on when I got in the room. I'll definitely stay here again.

BEWARE! The online photos are fake and the reviews are bogus! Do not stay here!…read more Office upon arrival---lights off, no AC, a "night of the living dead" person didn't even speak, so I said my name. He went outside, came back with a key and the only 2 words he ever uttered were "cabin 2". Cabin 2 met us with a plunger by the front door. Inside was quite a nightmare. No way to ask for another room as the place was closed at this point. Bathroom door broken--has a gate latch that doesn't close all the way, floors filthy and covered in sticker burrs, spiders in the bathroom, the soaps and shampoos were obviously refilled-not new-and dirty and stuck to the glass shelve. The TV was falling off the wall, there was a hole in the front door and the back of the door was covered in some sort of dirt (bug dirt?). Multiple spider webs in room. The positives were the fridge and microwave were clean and operational, the bed wasn't really comfy but seemed to be clean, and the AC worked. We were immediately looking for other hotel rooms even though we had prepaid for 2 nights. Unfortunately--April in this area is a big time for visiting Big Bend, so there was nothing to be had. We seriously considered sleeping in the truck... The reviews and photos I saw before booking sure look good, but they are very deceptive. Buyer beware!!

Breakfast cook was rude when asked if they would have gravy to go on top of the biscuits. I was putting my trash in the trash can & she offered no "safe travels", "have a nice day" - nothing. Definitely not the standards we encountered in other Hampton Inns.

Our king suite was spacious and had plenty of room for 4 adults and a toddler. There was a small gym that had the basics and did the job. There's a cute indoor pool and hot tub. They provide a complimentary breakfast which was very clean and kept up with. Loved the ability to make your own waffles and we lucked out and had banana bread waffles as an option and they were packed with banana flavor and we so fluffy. Loved that there's so many options of toppings and sauces. Lots of cereal choices, toast, pastries. Had a choice of boiled or scrambled eggs. Yogurts. Oatmeal, Biscuits, gravy and sausage. Plenty of comfortable seating and staff was super sweet. I overheard one lady assist someone to their table. We definitely need more people like her that truly care.

Not my first time here to the Holland Hotel. I like it for the history, as it was built to serve as…read morea waypoint for commerce flowing through the Big Bend region, mostly through early rail service. Its white stucco façade rises with understated elegance, a study in regional restraint. Step inside, and the Western motif feels neither theatrical nor contrived--it is immersive. The interiors evoke a time when craftsmanship mattered and hospitality was tangible. That sense of authenticity is perhaps most charmingly embodied in the guest experience itself: upon check-in, visitors are handed an actual metal key. No plastic cards. No digital apps. Just the satisfying weight of tradition in your palm. My stay in a Balcony King room revealed generous proportions rarely found in contemporary boutique properties. The suite unfolded into a separate living area, creating a sense of residential calm rather than transient lodging. The design language is minimalist, layered with subtle Southwestern influences with warm tones, and textures that echo the surrounding landscape. The bed offered restorative comfort, while a thoughtful pair of earplugs placed bedside acknowledged Alpine's enduring rail presence. Trains still pass through town in the night, their horns sounding--a reminder that this hotel was born of the tracks and continues to exist in dialogue with them. Service is polished yet personal, with staff attentive both before arrival and throughout the stay. And location is paramount: The Holland sits squarely in the heart of Alpine, making galleries, cafés, and local storefronts effortlessly accessible on foot.

It was super convenient- we never even had to face any staff. Our keys were waiting for us at the door (Yes, that's pretty trusting but the location is also a bit hidden as we had to walk down a clean alley to get there) SIMPLE ACCOMMODATIONS Huge plus for having local Coffee at the counter as well as a microwave, mini fridge, and wifi. Also a collection of small snacks for the taking. A simple, sheer curtain divided the living room from the bedroom but also added an elegant feel to the minimalist appearance. Everything was clean and perfect for our stay. AND RATHER SPACIOUS It never felt cramped inside. That sheer curtain also works great, space miracles. We also liked how right outside the door was a small, vegetation-filled courtyard. It was a bit too chilly for us to take advantage of but it mentally made us feel very relaxed upon entering.

They provide snacks, WiFi and a great binder with information. The location is convient to pretty much everything in Alpine ( a lot within walking distance). However, I was extremely dissapointed and annoyed when I received my review back from the Guest Lofts. We came to Alpine to celebrate me turning 21. Im not a big drinker and therefore wanted to travel for my bday. I think my group and I were stereotyped and therefore received a negative review. Apparently we kept a family and their kids up all night long... First off we were on the outside which meant there was only one loft next to us. The first night we stayed there we had just drove 7 hours and didn't stay up past 10. The next morning when we woke up the only people in the loft next to us were one of the ladies that runs the guest lofts cleaning. We were told In the review we were too loud and didn't follow the rules. There is no possible way we kept anyone up all night long. We never stayed up past 12 and didn't wake up until 9. I didn't even finish a four pack of beer and one of the people in my group was sick. The only "kids" I saw were two preteens throwing knives at stuff in the courtyard. I take it Guest Lofts are not a fan of young adults. I think they could have handled the situation better and maybe talked to us in person or let us know there was supposedly someone staying next to us.

Texas. However, if you are like me and have traveled to and through Alpine for over four decades. I have probably stayed in every hotel, campground or online rental in town. I am positively dumbfounded at the prices for nightly lodging in Alpine... especially in the last ten years or so. Sam is AWESOME and really goes out of his way to make your stay comfortable. They have tile floors... SOOOO much cleaner than carpet. The bathrooms are simple and functional. Each room has a microwave and a very workable minifridge. Bring you won coffee maker and skip the chi-chi coffee places down town. The wife and I actually pulled off Thanksgiving lunch for our family of four quite well out of the room there. This ain't the Taj Mahal... but is a good, clean, safe, comfortable place to stay. The rooms well appointed and most of all... AFFORDABLE. (This is forty years of experience in Alpine talking...) There are Barbeque pits and fire rings with firewood supplied. There are swing sets for the kiddos... safe parking and a warm family atmosphere. Sam's 'El Bombo Grande!' Save your cash... skip the high-end coffee trap, and give Sam a call at the Highland Inn in Alpine!

Stay at this B&B was not just a small part of our trip, but actually the best part! Truly one of the rare true B&Bs unlike some other which do not offer full experience.

Also, if you're looking for the best food on your Big Bend trip, you do not have any other choice than to stay here. Sharon's breakfast was delicious!

The locals could not have been more warm and friendly, even the local reptiles are calm and friendly. (See photo) I had a flat tire during my stay and it was minutes before I had a smiling local offering to help me air my tire back up. Having a fresh organic food truck steps away from the Bottle House was the greatest surprise. It's like having your own personal chef on call. I was so pleased to have delicious healthy food options near. The scenery surrounding the Bottle House is nothing short of breathtaking. On my drive into West Texas from Austin I literally gasped at the sight of such beauty once I hit the West Texas mountainous landscape. I was in awe. The beautiful natural landscape is captivating and can be admired while driving into town and from your front porch. Alpine is a treasure. It is a beautiful quick drive to Marfa from the Bottle House. I had planned on making day trips to Marfa several days of my stay but ended up enjoying relaxing and exploring Alpine so much that I had to extend my trip by a day to give myself a chance to see Marfa. I couldn't get enough of how charming this BnB is. Liz has thought of absolutely everything one could need to be made comfortable and feel completely at home.

The place seems family-owned. When we left on Labor Day, the office was closed but the woman cleaning rooms told us to simply leave our keys in the room when we left. The ice 'machine' isn't so much a machine, but a cooler full of ice. Fine by us. If it bugs you, walk across the street to the gas station and by a bag.

Additional kudos to them goes for their nearly-perfect mobile reservation system, booked my room online directly from them in a heartbeat.
