Needing a bite to eat before zipping up the mountain for a star party at the McDonald's…read moreObservatory, my girlfriend and I popped into the Harvard Hotel with our appetites. With a limited menu, we presumed anything ordered would be rather scrumptious. We decided to order the chicken fried steak along with the green chili bacon burger. We shared our dishes per, swapping plates half way through our respective meals. Our consensus was identical and is as follows: The green chili bacon burger was indeed the superior dish. In fact, it was quite delicious! The chicken fried steak was good as well, but the portion was a bit small and the sides were nothing to write home about. Was the burger worth $18? Probably not, but to be fair, I'm not sure that any burger is deserving of such a price. That being said, it was indeed a tasty burger if you don't mind the price. Was the chicken fried steak worth $20? Certainly not. Truly an average dish with small portions, we both feel the decision was regrettable at such a price point. In conclusion, with a juicy burger, an average chicken fried steak, and a limited menu with overpriced entrees, the Harvard Hotel receives a 3 star rating.

We planned on eating breakfast at the hotel restaurant, however the water heater went out. Rooms do not have microwave or mini fridge and only way to warn any thing up or have pop corn is in the community area which happens to be same spot they hold conferences. So we were out a restaurant And ability to use a microwave during day. Our room Tv didn't work due to wiring issues. Wasnt happy about that. No compensation offered for Two night stay and no TV, had to go sit in the lounge to watch anything. Only reason giving a lower rating. Beautiful sunrise and loved windows on both sides of room

Absolutely Wonderful Stay -- Especially for Dog Lovers!…read more We stayed at the Butterfield Inn in early June and had the best experience. We were in Unit 3, which was not only spotless and beautifully decorated, but also super cozy with a fireplace we actually got to use! It was perfect for us and our two big Labradors--plenty of space, comfort, and most importantly, true dog-friendliness. The service here is what really blew us away. I accidentally left my credit card behind, and the owner personally brought it to us. When we got a flat tire on our way out of town, she helped us find someone local to fix it fast. That kind of care and hospitality is rare and unforgettable. The new gift shop is absolutely adorable. I picked up a Texas Hummingbird book that I'm already loving, and there were so many unique finds--definitely worth stopping in even if you're not staying overnight. If you're heading to Fort Davis--especially with dogs--you HAVE to stay here. It's charming, clean, welcoming, and run by truly kind people. Can't recommend it enough!

We recently stayed at Hotel Limpia in Fort Davis, and this historic property is absolutely…read moreadorable. It's very quiet and has so much charm--perfect for a peaceful getaway. We booked the two-bedroom suite with a kitchen, which was spacious and clean. Although we didn't end up using the kitchen (we opted for a nearby restaurant instead), it was a nice option to have. The main bedroom had a lovely bathroom with a clawfoot tub and a vintage wall heater that added to the charm. The second bedroom had a smaller bathroom, with the sink just outside the door--compact, but functional. The rollaway bed in the living area was a great bonus so our son didn't have to sleep on the couch. The air conditioning worked really well, which was a relief during our summer stay. The lobby area is full of character, with cozy seating areas, a reading room, and even a conference room--all decorated in a warm, old-school style with touches like a chandelier that give it so much personality. WiFi was a little spotty but worked well enough when it did connect. Parking was easy--we had a covered spot right outside our room.

Here is an example: Room 1: $150/night Room 2: $160/night Room 3: $170/night Room 4: $180/night Room 5: $190/night So if you book five rooms, expect to pay an additional $40/night. I have never seen this type of pricing scheme at any other hotel.

Our experience with this property was deeply disappointing--not only was our refund request denied,…read morebut the response was laced with condescension and zero empathy. Instead of any effort to understand our situation, we were met with a lecture about fairness to them while completely dismissing fairness to the guest. Their message made it clear: they'd rather keep your money than show basic hospitality or decency. We canceled with nearly a week's notice--not a last-minute no-show--but were told it was "unlikely the room would rebook" and that it wouldn't be "fair" to offer a refund. That level of rigidity, coupled with a passive-aggressive tone and a "we don't care if you come back" attitude, says all you need to know. If you value respectful communication, flexibility, or even the slightest customer care, stay anywhere else. This is not a place that values its guests--only your money.

Hotel: Six individualized rooms on the second floor of the restaurant. Each room is decorated…read morecompletely different from the others. There are 3 single king rooms and 3 double queen rooms. There is a small balcony at the end of the hallway (also fire escape), and a large gathering room at the front. The gathering room has a couch, two chairs, books, puzzles, cards; a nice little hang out room. Then the other half has about 6 tables set up to eat or hang out on. There is an ice chest for guests there also. The beds are extremely comfortable! Restaurant: open all day for breakfast, lunch and dinner. You order at the counter, get a # and choose a table to wait for your order which is brought to you. You can also sit at the counter to order milkshakes, soda floats, etc. There is a small gift shop with items at the front and at the back near the restrooms. They also sell single slices of pie. The hotel checkin is inside the restaurant. There are a few tables outside to eat also. Prices are reasonable and staff is really friendly. Fun fact: Wed. April 27, 2022 the entire property was sold to new owners. We randomly met the wife on the street that day. Her, her husband and adult son moved here from Minnesota to become the new owners. The adult son will manage the restaurant. Not sure how things will change, if at all. Note to owners: the beds in room #6 are too high. Either provide foot stools or get lower beds.
