This Hampton Inn was a surprise, to say the least! I was en route to College Station from Victoria…read morearea late one night, and decided to stop here due to fatigue. The room with the king-sized bed was renovated/updated, along with the rest of the property (obviously). This style of room was different, as it felt a fifth smaller of its size from what I've stayed in previously with other Hampton Inn properties. Despite this, I absolutely love it! The size allowed for a more intimate feel to it. Standard Hampton Inn breakfast, and parking was pretty decent. The property is adjacent to a Dollar Tree if you wanted to pick up certain things for travel, which I found convenient. The highway access wasn't far at all either. La Grange is a fairly small town, and not really like Bryan area at all. I had my best sleep in over a week due to how quiet the surrounding area was, in addition to the hotel during the week. Will certainly stay here again!

I was travelling to a conference in Austin, and had decided to head in a couple days early so that…read moreI could experience some local events I knew about in the area before getting into the city. The biggest event I wanted to attend did not have a reasonable hotel close by, but the Oak Motel was available at a reasonable price a couple dozen miles away, which was fine by me. The fact that it is located in a town of such musical fame was a plus, though I did not see any references to the song that were obvious. From the outside, the motel looks pretty run down, and the fact that the soda machines are somewhat out of order along with the ice machine is kind of disappointing. However, the owners and managers are very nice, a husband and wife team who are doing all of the work on the place. However, the insides are a completely different matter. The rooms have all been renovated, with nice hardwood floors and new beds and mattresses. Really, they have done a wonderful job at turning an old motel into a place that is worth staying in. If you are in the area, feel the need to stay somewhere to look at all of the antiquities down the road, then this is certainly a place to consider.

Overall it was an adequate stay for the price. The room was clean and beds very comfortable. The…read moreoutside was not so clean. We stayed in a room next to the laundry. Noise wasn't an issue but it looked like a homeless camp on the sidewalk. Old food boxes brought flies. Only other complaint was the ice machine, door was half open and it's outside. Don't think I would use that ice in my drinks. Staff was friendly. We've stayed here many times before but not so sure about future stays.

This is a wonderful hotel with easy access to the highway yet peacefully secluded and surrounded by…read morefields and scrub-lands. Its an easy five minute drive from "downtown" La Grange and all the restaurants and shops on the square. I've stayed at the other "mid-range" hotel in town, the Hampton Inn, and found this Best Western to not only be better maintained, but also provide a better value and experience. I have stayed here several times over the past couple of years and have always found the hotel and staff to be inviting and friendly. The facilities and rooms are very well maintained, and the free breakfast is well stocked with a variety of items including, eggs, bacon, sausage, pastries, juice, yogurt and milk. While rates here are a bit higher than you'd expect for a standard Best Western, it's still a good value considering the service and good conditions of the facilities (and breakfast),. The parking lot is *extremely* well illuminated, something that I've found lacking at many mid-range hotel chains (especially in smaller towns), and I really appreciate it because it makes the hotel feel that much safer. The black-out curtains in the rooms ensure that the bright parking lot doesn't interfere with your rest. All in all, the Best Western La Grange is a winner in my book, and I will continue to stay here on my way to Austin. I also have no problems recommending it to friends and family. You'll be pleasantly surprised.

We were in area to visit the 7 painted churches tour so worked ok with the location to visit those.

It is a good place to stay when visiting Round Top for the annual fairs or during quieter times to visit locations that stay open year-round. The owners and staff were friendly and accommodating. I cannot recommend this place more highly. This is now my go to place to relax and unwind.

To the other yelper below...Most places don't have free weights as they are a liability.

This will be long but want to be fair. Upon arrival the hotel was clean & presentable…read more We arrived late. Check in was friendly and easy. Bed & pillows were very clean & comfortable. Refrigerator & clean towels were provided in the room. For these things alone, I would've given a 5 star rating. And, I love that pets are allowed; but, this is where the 5 rating becomes a 3. Pets are allowed and it's quite noticeable the moment I opened the door to the room. The room smelled heavily of pet urine the moment you open the door. Frayed carpeting, sticky floors in entry & bathroom. Strong smell of pet urine in the corners of the bathroom that worsened as you got closer. Heavily stained furniture. I avoided sitting on the sofa. Door of our room: Damaged and warped at the bottom corner of the door, leaving a significant gap between the lower corner of the room door and door jamb. As a woman, if traveling alone, I would not have felt safe. It was late and told no other rooms were available. Later found out that there were other rooms with 2 queen beds available, ours was a King room. Extremely large rooms. In room coffee maker is available upon request but I highly recommend their fresh ground coffee offered at breakfast. Although a shower cap and laundry bag weren't offered in the room, I was able to obtain them from the front desk. The shower/tub combo doesn't have a clean or inviting appearance. Surprisingly, the pressure was super nice. Bathtub/shower combo had a non-slip surface but pealing around the drain. Again, despite the appearance, the shower delivered an extremely relaxing spray. Bathroom toilet and sink were very clean. Other room amenities: Iron with iron board. 2 hangers. Complimentary toiletries included hand wash, lotion and hair dryer. As another reviewer said, this place has so much potential. The odor and sticky floors were very off putting - Found myself playing a mental game of the Floor is lava. When I got into the car the following morning I could smell pet odor emitting from the soles of my shoes. At this point, I called the hotel, I spoke to the manager and let her know how unsettling & unpleasant the odor was. She was very confused by the odor, saying no one had used the room for a very long time. They just replaced the AC in that unit. In spite of what she said, it smelled like a boarding kennel and that a dog had been left unattended for a while. She offered to check it. Although I left a privacy placard on the door, I gave her permission to enter and have a housekeeping attendant to enter with her to mop the floor; which improved the situation. I'd really like to give this establishment a 5 star rating because the bed and pillows were extremely comfortable and clean, as were the towels. They were very fresh and white as any 5 star hotel. I'm giving a 3 rating for others to be aware. I love that it's a pet friendly place. Sometimes leaving fur babies at home is unavoidable. Truly, it's a joint effort of the hotel guests to help the hotel management to keep the establishment cleanly. I'd advise to travel with a crate or a play pen for your pet. As a pet lover I'm very compassionate so when I stay in pet friendly hotels I travel with Febreze Pet Odor remover; which was a huge save on my allergies and made my 2 night stay tolerable. I hope to hear they've made improvements in the areas of safety and odor. I'd like to stay here in the future. I hope this helps you on your journey and I wish you safe travels.

Paranormal Activity Cut Our Visit Short!…read more We were looking forward to a relaxing weekend at Belle Oaks and were drawn in by the charming photos and description. But from the moment we arrived, it was clear that--while still beautiful--the inn was showing signs of wear, a faded echo of its restored glory from 20 years ago. What we liked: The property retains a nostalgic charm, with antiques adorning every corner. The hosts greeted us warmly and shared a bit of the inn's history. To their credit, they did warn us that the older electrical circuits might cause occasional flickering lights. What we didn't expect: Lights turning on and off by themselves. The television powering on in the middle of the night. Bed sheets being pulled off us while we slept. Feeling as if I was being touched and it wasn't my husband. The paranormal energy was far more intense than we'd anticipated--and ultimately, we decided to cut our trip short. Other concerns: The pool was dirty, and while breakfast was tasty, it was surprisingly sparse. As someone who's stayed in many bed and breakfasts, this was the first time I've encountered a buffet-style setup with no table settings, no water service, and a limited selection. We left both hungry and unnerved. Speaking with locals we learned that stories abound about hauntings in Gonzales.

They offered fire pits and hot tubs that were great We loved: Complimentary hot tea and coffee. Refrigerators in the rooms and glassware/cups for your own bevies. They offer games (if you're into a little cards or something with the ladies) and music throughout the property (ends at 10pm). Very comfortable beds and pillows with daily room cleaning and fresh towels. Pro tips: You could bring stuff to cook breakfast and use the full kitchen in the main house. There aren't many breakfast options in Round Top. You can also book the chef ahead of time to cook for you! Some rooms don't have very good coverings in the windows so if privacy is important, try room 7! Great location and private. Very quiet! We never heard a thing from any other guests. There are no hangers, so if you have something to hang bring some to use with the coat hooks they provide.

Our king size bed was quite comfortable and the refrigerator and microwave were fully functional; my first issue, however is that while the TV was centrally located in the room we only had one chair and had to ask for a additional chair to be brought to our room and then a minor thing is that the quality of toilet paper (1 ply sheets) this hotel supplies it's customers is of absolutely poor quality almost like sandpaper.

On top of all of this, there is no control over other guests ( unsupervised children running a muck in the parking lot and screaming, numerous occasions of guests arguing just outside of my room, guests playing loud music all hours of the day and night, etc. I can not understand how or why this establishment is still allowed to operate.
