Top Downtown Hotel Reviews

The Resort at Schlitterbahn

8/10 Good

"La instalación prácticamente no funciona solamente 1 piscina de 4 nada de recreación, nada de alimentos, nada de música, d dicen los trabajadores qué hasta el mes de mayo día 15 todo está cerrado no se lo recomiendo a nadie hasta mayo río sociólogo las condiciones de la habitación excelente y el trato de los trabajadores"

Hacienda del Rio

10/10 Excellent

"Enjoyed my stay. Room is small and to the point. Bed was very soft and comfy. The bedding was comfy. Shower was hot and to the point. I don’t love have glass wall showers but it did the job. I thinking having the option to go tubing or kayaking out back is awesome. The lobby is simple. Easy parking. You have to check-in in person. I stayed in the pecks building and it was extremely loud cause of the highway close by. I had earplugs and even with them it was so loud. The place is basic. I’d stay again for the river options out back."
