We stayed at this historic boutique inn once and loved it. The rooms are luxurious and well-appointed with wonderful amenities. Very clean! They offer a variety of stay options: Cottages, suites, and rooms. Everything has been perfectly restored. Historical + Modern. High-level service. Restaurant onsite. Highly recommend. read more

We came to The Kendall for a Girlfriend get away. We received superb customer service in all aspects. From check-in, requests while there, and check out.... It was amazing. Not to mention our cottage. It was sooo cozy & comfy. We enjoyed it inside and on the front porch! Oh and the restaurant was EXCELLENT! We like eating 'al fresco' so we were glad they had that option.... And the food.... Delish! If you have never visited Boerne, you should and you should stay at the Kendall Inn! read more

What a gem! Had no idea what to expect when I booked a night here as we were meeting friends for dinner at Peggy's in green and didn't want to drive back to Kerrville after partaking in wine. To say I was pleasantly surprised is understatement! The rooms are huge and decorated perfectly. Bathroom is perfect with tub and shower and just love how they kept charm with history of this hotel. read more

Actually enjoyed our stay here, but the luxury accommodation bit just wasn't quite there. The hotel and grounds are very nice looking, and main street and major shops are within easy walking distance. There is parking around out front, facing the square, and some other spaces back behind. We were lucky enough to get a space out front. We opted for this hotel from reading other online reviews, and it was a nice, quiet, attractive hotel. One very positive thing, they called letting us know our room was ready early, and we could check in early. The actual stay was just OK, though. The room we stayed in (The Sewing Room), had been redecorated from the online photos. It was a bit disappointing to have a room that didn't match what we thought we were getting. Various things keep me from rating the room higher - strange black debris on the pillows (I'm guessing blew out of the A/C unit over the bed), overhead fan didn't work at all, and when using the bathtub, the handle came off in my wifes hand! Told the front desk about the fan, not much help there. I was looking at the bed (not the one in the room pics online), and the rail was pulled loose where it was just snapped together. TV's cable had been left unplugged, had to play detective to get the TV to work. PRO's: Very nice property, very picturesque, in a very convenient location. Friendly staff on check in. CON's: Little details listed above did not add up to anything but an "OK" stay. Had higher hopes, since we were paying a bit more than the usual chain property. read more

I stayed at The Kendall Hotel with a few friends and had such a beautiful and memorable experience. We booked the St John's Suite and it was absolutely perfect. The room was spacious, beautifully decorated, and had so much character. It felt cozy and luxurious at the same time, with just the right mix of historic charm and modern comfort. One of the highlights of our stay was having a game night in the suite. There was plenty of space for all of us to spread out and relax, and the atmosphere made it feel extra special. Everything was clean and thoughtfully arranged, and we felt so at home the entire time. The location is ideal. The property is right in the heart of Boerne, connected to a great restaurant and walking distance from cute shops and other local spots. The grounds are well maintained and every corner of the hotel has its own charm. You can really feel the history of the building, but it has been updated beautifully. What truly made the stay unforgettable was the front desk staff. Every single person we interacted with was kind, helpful, and genuinely welcoming. They went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and taken care of. You can tell they take pride in the property and really care about their guests. I would absolutely stay here again and recommend it to anyone looking for a charming and relaxing getaway in the Hill Country. It exceeded all of my expectations. read more

We stayed two nights three days at the Kendall Inn. It was wonderful. The room was so cozy and clean. We had one room with a king size bed and a small entry room with a door that had a pull out bed, which was very comfortable. The staff was amazing and very accommodating. The inn is right off Main Street so very close and walking distance to shops and many restaurants. We ate at the Kendall Restaurant and it was fabulous! The grounds are so pretty and it was so nice to walk the area around the inn. I highly recommend Kendall for your next Boerne trip. read more

We enjoyed a girl's trip in Boerne, Texas and stayed at The Kendall in the Cibolo House 1. The place was clean and very cozy and the staff was very friendly and accommodating. We enjoyed sitting out by the pool and playing card games during the time when we weren't out enjoying the great shops in Boerne. On our last day we had brunch at The Kendal Restaurant under the trees. The staff and service were superb! The Pot Pie on the menu was awesome and perfect for a brunch meal. Boerne is such a great quaint little town and The Kendall fits right in with the surroundings. read more

Charming little getaway! Love this space! Very accommodating, cost and comfortable! We happened to drive by and we are out of town. Only a couple of rooms available and we chose The Belle room. It's so quaint and cozy. We had a wonderful stay! If we are in town again we will definitely stay again! What a treasure! read more

Nice staff, charming location, perfect for a weekend getaway, one of the best places to stay in Boerne.

This is a super cute boutique hotel in the heart of Boerne. Each space was decorated so beautifully for Christmas. I also love that you can have your own little stand alone building behind the main building. This would be a great place for an event and the restaurant that is attached is spacious. read more

I am a big fan of Bohannan's restaurant in San Antonio. One of the best dining experiences I have had. For some time, I have been wanting to try another restaurant of his...Peggy's On The Green (to be reviewed separately). I decided to reserve Peggy's for my birthday and since it was located next door to the Kendall Inn, I made a reservation there for two nights. The entire stay was excellent. The staff are very cordial and helpful. Our check-in was nice. Nicole, the manager, helped us to check-in to the Waco cabin and gave us a quick tour and offered us a bottle of wine or champagne for my birthday. Nice touch! The Waco cabin left nothing to be desired. Maybe the smallest cabin on property, but it was very comfortable. We really enjoyed morning coffee on the front porch of the cabin. The porch is well shaded and secluded from the surrounding businesses. The entire grounds were well cared for and appealing. Most of our contact was with Mary, the lead desk attendant. She was a real pleasure and was always cheerful and helpful. Always a pleasant greeting. I will also add that the housekeeping were very pleasant and always had something to say. The Kendall Inn is walking distance for all the shops, restaurants, and watering holes in "downtown" area of Boerne. I don't recall seeing any other lodging or B&B in the downtown area. There is a really nice paved trail starting at the Kendall and going to many shops and restaurants in town. Another thing to note is Dienger's Trading Post. We had lunch at the restaurant there and it was very good. The service was excellent. Dienger's is an easy walk from the Kendall. It would also be an excellent place for breakfast. In closing, we loved the Kendall and all its staff and will definitely stay there when we return to Boerne. read more

Very friendly and helpful staff. Lovely grounds and great location. The entryway/living-room/lobby was beautifully decorated for the winter holidays. We stayed in the Texas room, which is like the second floor or attic of the schoolhouse. It was comfortable and warm even though the weather outside was cold. read more

A must hotel to stay in when in the Boerne area!! The wife and I were attending a a friends wedding nearby and they had blocked off a couple rooms here at the Kendall. This beautiful hotel was built in 1859 and has a lot of history. We stayed in the main building in the Victoria room which was a gorgeous room on the second floor in the front of the hotel just above the receptionist desk. There are several outlying buildings that double as rooms like old cabins, an old Church, an old school house and a general store. The room was very comfortable and elegant, the marble bathroom with its accents brought the feel of luxury. The Kendall hotel has definitely done it right with this hotel in keeping it maintained with that old charm. If your ever in the Boerne TX area, staying or eating at the Kendall is a must. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kendall_Inn read more

Loved this quaint little spot where we stayed for a Girls Trip. The rooms were spotless and decorated with a farmhouse/country chic vibe. Everyone was super nice and it was right next door to Peggy's on the Green! Definitely recommend that you check it out! read more

My wife and I just stayed at the Kendall in the Erastus Reed Grand Suite and the entire experience was perfection. It's nearly impossible to describe how warm and cozy the bedroom and adjacent bathroom were! Thoughtfully furnished, with just the right decorative touches, there's nothing odd or out of place. It's absolute value all the way around. The bed and pillows were incredibly comfortable, and the temp in the room was consistent. Water pressure and temp were great, and we LOVED how the ceiling lights were all on dimmers! That's super rare and so great to be able to dial-in the right mood for the moment. Our one criticism? The shower door needs a seal around the edges because a great deal of water leaked onto the floor, but spare towels were on-hand to soak up the excess. Hey, it's a minor thing. The entire complex itself is also amazing. Main floor was, like the room, perfectly appointed with sofas, chairs, and tables. Bravo, Kendall. Can't wait to come back. read more

The Kendall - Relaxing in the Lobby! - Hotels Near Me - Boerne, Texas

I booked this on a whim, we were going to be passing through on a motorcycle so planning was on the fly. I absolutely can't say enough about how awesome this property is! The check in, flawless. Asking for things prior to arrival, done and ready when we arrived. With this being a smaller town, some restaurants are closed but they have a list of restaurants for all times of the day that are open and most are within walking distance. the property itself is quaint and very unique. it was quiet and safe, slept well. Rooms cool and beds were great. Shower was amazing, water was hot. Don't second guess this place. Very neat and original, and on a sidenote, this would be a great place to stay for a wedding as it's all enclosed and has its own unique rooms and cabins. read more

This amazing well preserved but yet renovated Hotel earned my upmost appreciation. Walking distance to the Strip and jogging trails. The Restaurant on the First flirt was fantastic! read more

All in all an absolutely charming place right off Main Street. I stayed in the George Kendall room and it was sufficient for my one night stay. The only issue was that I think there was a nest of birds settled in above the ceiling in my room. They were rambunctious and chatty all night. Will definitely return for a future stay with my hubby. read more

TIPS: *If you want to eat at the adjacent restaurant (Peggy's on the Green), make reservations in advance (especially on a weekend). We got lucky and managed to score a reservation by calling a couple hours before they opened. There are other promising restaurants in town but Peggy's was a great complement to the hotel stay. *Parking: we arrived in the mid-afternoon and were able to find parking right outside the hotel. There are some spots available on the street. If you arrive after 5pm, those spots will fill up with restaurant visitors. Apparently, the hotel does offer other parking options. This was their e-mail to me: "We do have a lot for parking: 209 Lohman Street for guest parking and you may come up the back ramp to the Courtyard/Main Lobby. Or you're more than welcome to arrive at 128 W. Blanco and park under our port cochere in the front of the Main Lobby; we can guide you to parking from there." *There are some historic background signs on the property (in front of the restaurant, by the start of the hiking trail). I'd recommend checking those out if you want some history of the hotel. Also, don't forget to explore the lobby -- it's lovely. The hotel delivers on its promise to provide an elegant yet historic experience. Obviously, their rooms vary. There are fancier rooms and less fancy ones. We stayed in the Col. Henry C. King Suite (middle-of-the-road fancy) and it was lovely. It definitely has a "rustic luxury charm." That being said, they did provide some modern amenities like a Keurig machine and a refrigerator. There is a television in the room (it's hidden inside a cabinet so as not to disrupt the rustic vibe). I also loved that they had a little vanity table by the sink. It was perfect for getting ready. Finally, the bed was very comfortable and I got a great night's sleep. There were chairs on the balcony outside to sit and drink coffee in the morning. It was charming and comfortable yet I have one gripe -- the shower. The water pressure was ridiculous and I couldn't figure out a way to adjust it. I was basically writhing and yelping in pain (no exaggeration). It physically hurt and I couldn't enjoy my shower. Not a cheap experience. The price does vary depending on your visit date but we ended up spending $300 plus on a Saturday night booking. Normally, I wouldn't spend that much on one night but it was a special occasion. You can book directly with the hotel or book via hotels dot com (and collect rewards). The location is perfect. If you park your car, you don't really need to move it. You're within walking distance of everything you may need -- food, coffee, shopping. The service was terrific -- the woman at the front desk was extremely welcoming, attentive, and helpful. I definitely recommend the Kendall for a romantic getaway. read more

This is such an adorable inn with old world charm and updated furnishings plus modern amenities. I especially loved the service - it was so warm and welcoming, helpful and kind. Special shout-out to Payton (I hope I got the spelling right) for exceptional service! The courtyard was adorable but the day we were there was too chilly to utilize it. The rooms are simple, clean and comfortable. The location is great too - walking distance to nearby restaurants and shops! The walls are thin and we had neighbors who spent the night either chatting or watching tv. So I didn't get a good night's sleep and woke up a bit grumpy. If you're a light sleeper too, I wanted to share this note. read more

Quaint place... really looked forward to our stay in this beautiful place.. They have the most comfortable beds, ever. Day 1: We were surprised they didn't cleanup after us.... we aren't messy but thought they'd do the beds. At least they brought coffee pods. Day 2: Once again, beds are undone. No coffee. This time, trash is full and debris that flew out of the window unit needed to be vacuumed/cleaned up. Let's see what happens these next 2 days. Update: day 3. Came back and room was as we left it. No coffee, shampoo, etc. debris from unit is still on window sill and floors... went downstairs to ask and was told there is a sign we were to p,ace at door. We didn't know that. So be aware... if you want your room cleaned and toiletries replenished, etc... place the sign at the door. But overall... staff is courteous. Just not happy about not knowing of service sign needing to be placed at door. First time ever hearing of such a thing. read more

I stayed here in late March, 2019. The property has a number of different types of buildings and rooms. I stayed near the pool in what looked like a newer building. The room was small but well appointed, bath rooms were clean and modern, mattresses were of high quality, linens were nice. On site management was pleasant and helpful. There are back gates to the property that help with access, luggage, bike transporting. The location is across from the green square and close to the shops of Main Street. We also ate dinner at the adjacent restaurant and the food choices and quality was good. There is a nice bar in the restaurant. If I was in Boerne, I would re-visit this property. I probably wouldn't go to Boerne just for this property but would return if I was in the area. read more

This is a charming hotel. Each of the areas is themed like a small town. The rooms themselves are very nice, clean, and easy to move around in. The bathroom was nice though we did have an issue with the heating system. I think it was Vanessa(?) that helped us get it sorted out. There was also a strange alarm that went off during the early hours of the morning but the woman at the desk helped us with that as well. It's a cute place and conveniently located with Peggy's right next door. I'd come back. read more

ADORABLE BOUTIQUE HOTEL We stayed in room 4 for one night and will absolutely stay again. This historic hotel is beautifully renovated. Although the decor has been brought current they didn't loose the old western charm. Old stores have been turned into suites and gazebos into ice machine stations. They didn't miss a detail when it came to decor. In our room the tile was custom, the wallpaper embossed and the bedding was luxurious. Our specific room fit my personal style with a modern beach theme. As for amenities we had all that we needed for one night. Fiji water and coffee is complimentary and the free WiFi was easy access. Our room was in front of a large hot tub and they have both indoor and outdoor common areas that would be perfect to sip wine or read a good book. If you're traveling with a pet they do have some rooms that are pet friendly. The hotel is located right off Main St which is a great walk of restaurants, coffee shops, breweries, wine bars and gift shops. NOTE: this small town shuts down most things on Mondays so plan accordingly to maximize your experience. read more

Notice: did not stay here, just walked through and talked to the staff. The hotel history is very interesting. Family ate at the adjoining restaurant, Peggys, for brunch, and we were able to see some of the suites, as well as the church (honeymoon suite) and cabins. The hotel looked fantastic and we're recommending family stay here this summer. read more

We stayed here with some friends New Year's Eve. It's a yearly tradition that one of us plan a getaway on New Year's and this place was selected by our friend. What a mistake. First off they had our reservation wrong, they had us in cabins. Once we got that straightened out we checked into Hill Country 1 and 2. The rooms were neat and clean, but that's about as good as it gets from that point on. We noticed that the beds WERE NOT king sized beds as stated on the website. They were full sized, talk about misrepresentation. We thought we could make it work, it was for only one night. After a long night out on the town and back at our rooms our friends went to take a shower and they had NO hot water, so they had to use our shower. Then we all tried to go to bed, what a joke. Luckily none of us are very tall or very big, but we did not fit on these tiny beds. It was ridiculous. We mulled over one of us sleeping on the floor, but once again we thought we could make the bed situation work. Wrong, it was one of the longest nights of our lives. Other than the beds being tiny and no hot water, you hear the main AC/Heat kicking on for a part of the building with a loud thud every so often. We don't think we will ever find the need to stay here again, especially at $242.00 for the night. The two star rating is for the cleanliness of the rooms and courtyard. If you're in Boerne stay at the new Hampton Inn and Suites and get a Suite with a king bed at two thirds the price. You will be way better off and definitely get a better nights sleep and have hot water. read more

This was our company's Christmas luncheon. The venue is the Kendall Inn's ballroom for private events, which is in the back of the inn. Kind of secluded, which is cool for a private event. Very spacious room with tables for 8-10 folks each. Plenty of room. A bar was setup for us. The bar was probably part of the service provided by the food caterer Cartwheel catering, out of Kerrville. Our GM had used them for his daughters wedding. They were pretty good, but that should probably be a separate review. The venue was very nice. read more

This was by far the worst stay I've ever had. My husband and I decided we would each take a weekend in June to ourselves while the other one stayed home with our daughter. I called The Kendall and explained to the gentleman on the phone what the occasion was and asked if their hotel was a good fit. He said absolutely and suggested the cottage with the big front porch with porch swing. Sounded amazing so I booked it! $500 plus tax for two nights. I arrived at 3:30 Friday afternoon with check in at 4:00. I stood in the lobby for a few minutes all alone saying hello until I decided to search for someone to help me. I found someone who then found someone else who had been cleaning the rugs out front as I had walked in. Did he know he was the only one there to check in and decided to leave me there? Was someone else supposed to be checking everyone in? By the time he finished checking me in there was a line of people behind me. Once I got to my room I felt better. Nice and cold, clean and the porch was just what I was hoping for. My plan was to spend the weekend on the porch swing with a book and a glass of wine. As I unpacked music began and that's when I realized my porch faced the park and there was an event going on. It happened to be movie in the park. This even went on until around 11pm. I did sit on the porch but it just wasn't quite the peaceful evening I had hoped for. At some point I headed in and searched for a place to plug my phone in. The outlets are sparse and in the wrong places. I did find one behind the small couch along with a thick layer of dust. Just gross. The bed itself was very comfy which was great because I planned to sleep in late. But.....that was not going to happen because around 8am they started setting up a car show at the park. Every car filing in had a loud engine and had to be revved up for the other guys watching. It was so loud I couldn't even think. No cup of coffee on the porch for me. This event went on until after 3pm. At this point I was so frustrated. The poor girl I found to talk to was so sorry but couldn't do much. She offered 20% off and said she would talk to her manager when she got in. The hotel is 100% booked and the manager isn't even there? She wasn't there on Sunday when I checked out either. Can you even call yourself a manager if you aren't there on your busiest days? So as the car show ended I decided to sit on the porch and try to enjoy it while I could. After I settled in the sprinklers turned on and started spraying me. At 4:00 in the afternoon! So back inside I went and as if someone said "it can't get worse" an employee walking into my room. No knock, no "house keeping" just walked straight in. I jumped up and she said "do you need towels?." Well actually I do now that I'm wet from your sprinklers but that's besides the point. I mentioned the sprinklers and she said "they will go off eventually." Ok.... So after all that I was convinced I should be able to get at least half of my money back. When I went to check out Sunday the same girl from the day before was there. She felt terrible but her manager said 20% was the most they would offer. I guess that's better than nothing but in my opinion it wasn't enough. I was made aware that the manager had been involved in setting up the car show so maybe that's why she didn't feel bad. I would have loved to speak with her personally so I could explain everything but she wasn't there. With everything that happened I can confidently say I will never stay there again. I do think it's a nice property for people who are looking for a place to party. A girls weekend or something like that. A romantic getaway it is not. With no manager on site and untrained staff I would still be wary about spending your money here. Maybe my luck was just terrible. Others seem to have loved this place. I think it has more to do with the location than the hotel though. Spend your money elsewhere if you can. read more

My husband surprised me for our anniversary and booked one of the cabins. Bad decision. I understand it's meant to look historic however for the price you pay it is definitely not worth the money. The room was dusty/musty. The furniture was very much in need of a cleaning. WiFi wasnt working , and the small monitor TV was broken . The screen was half on and very poor quality. The bathroom towel rail was broken. The shower/ bathroom is a must in doing updates. I wasn't comfortable even using the shower. I was expecting an elegant yet historical experience. Also The shower head seemed it would have fallen off if I touched it. Maybe the rooms in the hotel are better. Very disappointed:( read more

Besides being aesthetically beautiful, the staff is wonderfully accommodating. The minute I walked in, I was greeted by a friendly face. I signed in and the young lady at the front desk helped me carry my bags to my room. When I walked in my room, I was overwhelmed by how beautifully antique and rustic it was. They really tried to maintain its original aesthetic beauty, from the antique wardrobe to the carvings on the wall panel molding. You actually get a metal key to these rooms. If you decide to tour the Inn, you'll be pleasantly surprised with all the vintage decor to the wooden cabins. They also have a Chapel where guests can get married if they plan ahead. They provide you with your personal Keurig with both caffinated and decaffeinated coffee pods with cream and sugar. They also provide 2 complimentary waters. They don't provide a fridge or microwave because the owners want guests to venture out and enjoy the cities restaurants and shops, which are a walking distance from the Inn. They also have a trail guests may want to walk through during their stay. I absolutely loved it and can't wait to return. read more

Cool little cottage but was not clean and things were broke and just over all not good experience... doesn't offer microwave or fridge so we couldn't bring back our left overs from restaurant. Pull out bed was broke. I did inform management they stated "We know it's on the list for remodel" very disappointing... High speed internet was a joke... read more

I was very disheartened to find more than a few things poorly managed by this facility. The major problem of them all was the hot tub on site. There was a light with a wire connected to an outside plug on the bottom of the tub. My toe hit the corner of it, and it made an electrical pop noise and shut off the light. Of course we got out and notified the staff on duty. She asked me to "let her know if anyone else came to the hot tub so she can walk down and tell them not to swim in it because their maintenance guy has been off for a few days..." I recommend that they close down the area and lock it up to avoid potential law suits if someone was to get shocked. Not to mention that I cleaned the hot tub out myself to rid the top of many leaves and bugs before trying to enjoy the amenity. Also, the outside lights were nonexistent or didn't seem to work. The area was completely dark. The next major issue was the outside gates where broken to the point of not being able to latch. We were told upon checking in to use a gate code and to "please shut it all the way for security." When I told one of the ladies who worked on site that it was broken she said " It's been broken for a while, but thanks." The inside room seemed charming and the bed was super comfortable, however the AC kept going out and it became hot very quickly. When taking a shower, the water spewed out from the side of the pipe and soaked the floor. The room was expensive for one night, so I have to say that I'm disappointed in the quality that it was in. read more
