This is a beautifully restored historical hotel. The prices are comparable to standard hotels in Paso, but the rooms are gorgeous and huge and the staff is very helpful and friendly. We were given a complimentary suite because so many of our wedding guests were staying there under the room blocks we set up, and they gave us a great discounted rate for extra nights as well. The suite was epic, with the most comfortable, plush king size bed I've ever had the joy to experience, and a beautiful bathroom with a spa tub. Deana was our contact regarding our blocks, and while her availability was limited, she was very accommodating. Their event spaces are very nice, as well, and there is plenty of parking in the area. I only wish the restaurant had been finished in time for our stay so we could have tried their food, gotten room service, and borrowed some flatware for the food we forgot to bring utensils for. We will definitely be back the next time we need a place to stay in the area!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
