Overall: 2.5/5 Paranormal Activity…read more4/5 Comfort 5/5 Customer Service I dragged my best friend along with me to do ghost tours in Jefferson (SUCH a cute town by the way!) and we stayed in room 205. 205 is supposedly one of the more active rooms in the hotel, but nothing major happened. There were some cold spots, the sound of footsteps walking around outside our door (even though there was no one upstairs at the time, we checked), the occasional knocking sound, and a dirty, child's hand-print appeared in the bathroom sometime while we were in our room. The hand print DEFINITELY was not there before we checked in, and we hadn't left the room yet by the time it appeared. No major activity unfortunately. As for the normal aspects of the hotel- It is DEFINITELY an old hotel (but honestly, how old it is is just part of the charm!) and has a bit of a musty smell, but the room we stayed in was clean and adorable! Not to mention, the beds are REALLY comfortable. Both me and my friend slept like rocks! The women on staff during our stay we absolutely delightful, and very helpful. They're aren't many places to go in Jefferson, but the ladies at the concierge desk helped us make the most of our stay and find the best places to eat and shop. We will be staying here again FOR SURE!

Oh, how a year changes all the good that a single place could ever have…read more As you all can see, I have consistently reviewed this place as an exceptional place to stay, but because of the unfortunate lack of care and attention to retaining long-term folk from current GM Kimberly the luster and beauty of a place can be so completely and utterly tarnished! Will admit our group was admonished for opening a door not properly marked as an emergency exit. After a second infraction I personally apologized and we shook hands and went on with an understanding from her that all was OK. Only to find out she reports to her board of this serious situation where we didn't obey her authority! Trust me the only situation here is the building in a violation of a state fire code that they don't want advertised. Very small and pedantic minded person to state we had no issue but after we have left and are miles away will in turn admonish you and abolish your reservation without any type of due process or knowledge other than the impersonal email. Absolutely abominable service behavior even if it wasn't towards decades long patrons. This new GM Kimberly is the complete antithesis of a service oriented person! She tells lies, will not resolve dangerous obstacles in patrons way, is not maintaining a good aesthetic to the building or grounds (overgrown vines and accumulating trash) and she does not fully report situations how they occurred. Very unprofessional! And to further show her lack of character, Kimberly invoked other long standing fine employees as part of the lie that she told her board. To the Garden Club: you to need to review the behaviors of your manager instead of revoking reservations. Maybe even ask around what Kimberly's nickname is amongst staff and citizens alike. Sad sad state of affairs at Excelsior. PS I write this in two states: having already spoken with Kimberly this morning trying to resolve this situation amicably and secondly fully knowing my reservation will be revoked too. I will certainly let you all know how this issue is further managed.

Some friends and I stayed here over Labor Day weekend and our stay was FANTASTIC. First of all, the…read moreyoung lady who works the front desk, Stephanie, is a rock star. She also cleans the rooms so she does it all. She called the late morning of the first night we were staying to let us know our room was ready if we wanted to check in early. We didn't ask- she just did it because she's awesome. She also recommended a place for us to have breakfast on Sunday morning. She always had a smile on her face and was willing to help out- if management is reading this, she deserves a raise! The Kahn Hotel is in an old building BUT has been many different things since the days of being a Saloon. It was a furniture store, newspaper office, lodge building (used by the Masons), and funeral home before it was renovated into a hotel. So obviously the inside has seen many changes over the last 150 years. It doesn't look exactly the way it did when it was built. The new owners did a great job with the renovations. Stephanie told us the flooring on the first floor is original (it was brought down from the second floor during renovations), but there are some modern additions (thankfully electricity, AC, indoor plumbing, and Wi-Fi). I loved our room- the decor was perfect. There is no AC control in the room, but we enjoyed the coolness and thankfully our comfortable beds had plenty of blankets to bundle up under. I'm sure if we had asked, Stephanie could have adjusted the temperature, but after spending all day walking around the beautiful town in the Texas heat, the cool room was a welcomed blessing. Our room had a mirror on the outside of the bathroom door, which was nice so one of us could do our makeup or hair while the other one was in the bathroom. There is no fridge in the room, but we had a cooler and the hotel provided ice located in the front lobby. It was perfect to keep our drinks and leftovers cool. If you stay on the weekend, I recommend the ghost tour that meets outside the front of the hotel. I think they meet Fridays and Saturdays only at 7:30. It's $20 and 100% worth it. You will learn more about the Kahn Hotel and its haunted history. The tour guide is amazing and very knowledgeable. The tour lasts about 2 hours. I would give this hotel more than five stars if I could. I will definitely be back to stay again!

My experience was…read morecompletely unplanned due to a rainstorm that made me stop my motorcycle road trip for safety reasons. At the time, there happened to be a motorcycle rally in memory of a fallen motorcyclist and every hotel room in the area was booked. Through the magic of cell phone internet, I was able to book a cottage to get me off the iron horse and start a great evening of exploring Jefferson, Texas. I managed to be greeted by a great gentleman right around 4:20. He was extremely friendly and his hospitality was amazing. He made sure to provide me with any needs and information I had to make my stay extremely pleasant under the circumstances. I am looking forward to booking again this Summer and will insist on staying here again. I normally refuse to book anywhere I have already been in the spirit of trying something new but there is no where else in Jefferson that I can imagine staying.

The moment I was invited back for the Fall conference, I hopped onto Air BNB and booked us here again. Yay! The Three Sisters Cottages BNB is a trio of little cabins in historic Jefferson, Texas. (It would be a great place for 3 couples to come and stay because you'd each have your own cabin, but could share the fire pit in the middle.) The cabins are so cute and cozy inside! They feature every modern luxury, including WiFi that actually works, a/c, TV, and heat. Each one features a kitchenette with a coffee maker, frig, and microwave. The hosts (Tammy and Randy) are helpful and friendly. They make you feel special without being intrusive. They are easy to communicate with and respond quickly to emails and phone calls. As for the breakfast: It's delivered right to your door in the morning! Not only are the breakfasts tasty, but they are photogenic. Your friends will be jealous when they see those food pics on your social media. (Speaking of, if you're on Instagram, check out the Three Sisters Cottages account and you'll see what I mean!) So next time you and your partner need a weekend escape, give the Three Sisters Cottages a try!
