Tips on Accommodations

Texas offers a variety of lodging options, from typical American chain motels to luxury hotels, historic hotels and bed-and-breakfast inns, some pleasant and inexpensive mom-and-pop independent motels, cabins, and ranch-style resorts. To make your lodging an integral part of your Texas experience, we recommend choosing a historic property where available. There are quite a few historic bed-and-breakfast inns discussed in the following pages, and especially when you take into consideration the wonderful breakfasts prepared at most of them, the rates are fairly reasonable. Why spend $80 for a boring motel room and then another $10 to $15 for breakfast when for just a bit more you can instead sleep in a handsome inn, decorated with antiques, and be served a delightful home-cooked breakfast?
