Hudspeth House Review

This three-story B&B was a "kit home" ordered from a company back East, assembled in 1909, then relocated to its present location in 1913. The inn takes its name from a teacher at the college that became West Texas State A&M University, Miss Mary Elizabeth Hudspeth, a friend of Georgia O'Keeffe who also taught at the school in the 1910s. (The famed artist was a frequent dinner guest at the house in her time.) Outside, a shady wraparound porch and colorful gardens invite guests into a lively and elegant parlor. All of the rooms are uniquely decorated, and two are third-floor lofts; I like the spare woodsy charm of Benjamin's Cabin, and the large and stylish comfort of James' Loft.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
