We were in Waco for a birthday party and saw that Hotel Indigo had an extremely reasonable Friday…read moreevening rate. The safe was super since and helpful across the board. The lobby is large and modern, with the bistro bar in the front. There was a nice level of energy at the bar, with people socializing and 80s hair metal music playing in the background. We had a couple of drinks and a flatbread. The drinks were too shelf with Drippings Springs Vodka and carefully crafted. The rooms are large and designed with a flare that makes sense. Unlike A W hotel, where they sacrifice flow with being clever, the Indigo rooms have a nice feel elevated above the standard room in this price range. The clean, comfortable king bed and extra-large shower made for an upscale stay at an excellent price. We'll stay there again!

This place was wonderful. The staff were exceptionally helpful before and during the event…read more Meghan, the coordinator, made sure we were taken care of, provided cost conscious, yet quality focused alternatives for our food and drink. The place was perfectly set up and extremely clean. I can't say enough about it and beside all that; it's a deal. The way they price the venue your food and drink order works against that..you won't get a better deal for such a high quality place with great parking, exceptional food and service thats second to none.

Absolutely incredible weekend at Blue Hills Ranch. We were fortunate to stay in the stunning…read moreGiraffe Villa... a hefty price, but worth it if you can afford it. The Giraffe barn is attached to one side of the house, and their pasture is on the other side. It is the most fabulous "Barndominium" with incredible finishes and clearly thoughtfully designed. That experience alone was mind-blowing.... however we also had the Gold Packages and were able to experience everything the ranch had to offer! Zebras, Capybaras, Kangaroos, Otters, Deer, Homer the Dromedary!!! Everywhere you turned there were more animals and more experiences offered. My children and I were in absolute animal heaven and will be thrilled to return. I will say, our vacation was expensive and it did not disappoint. However, I do believe you can absolutely visit this ranch on a budget.... Probably one of the best experiences was their ranch safari and that is a nominal price and totally worth it! You can see the entire property and all of the animals on the safari trip. Additionally they have fantastic cabins that are themed, and if you have children under the age of 10, the pirate themed cabins are beyond your wildest imagination.... as far as I am aware all of the sleeping accommodations include kitchens so you can absolutely cook for your family instead of paying for the delicious ranch food. That said... Chef Alan is phenomenal and out of this world excellent chef. Each meal was made with love and artistry. The staff at Blue Hills Ranch all go above and beyond to create lasting memories for you. I absolutely recommend this experience as a NOT TO BE MISSED event! We are already planning a return in October/November depending on availability . Cannot wait. Looking forward to being among these amazing staff members (shout-out to Jen, Anne, Shelby, Emily, Chesney, Alan...) the guard dogs, and all of the incredible exotic animals. Thank you, Matt!

Nice place. Good food…read more We walked in to join the wedding party and it was really warm inside the building. Only 15 or so people inside at that point. The air conditioner could not keep up in May when the high outside was 90. I looked across the room at any given point and most of the crowd was sitting and fanning their faces with paper. Sweating. Sitting and sweating from 5pm until 9pm. I asked one of the servers about the situation and they stated the owners did not properly fit out the building from an air conditioning angle. My wife is eternally cold, even in summer. She even said she was hot. Rent in cool weather only.

The Not so Good: -Did not love the breakfast selections (received one voucher per day redeemable for one item). Out of the breakfast burrito both days, and the breakfast biscuit was something found in the frozen section. Cinnamon roll was so dry I didn't even bother eating it. -If your room faces the road, it can be noisy at times with loud cars. Not bad, but not great.

I honesty did not have much hope Sydney I arrived here as the immediate area looked a bit run down but the lobby is bright and inviting with a bar and snacks , and nice and modem. The room did not appear as sparse as Alofts usually do. It was again bright and modern, very clean , cute decor . I liked that the TV had a full range of channels not just the basics ( gonna admit after a long day at work, mindless Bravo shows are always a good watch ) Two desks and lots of bright lighting. Nice clean bathroom with Dry Bar shampoos and Conditioner which is one of my favorite brands! Nice clean mini fridge, coffee machine - impressed ! This will be my go to when I work in this sea
