- William (9/5): -
- Shannon (10/5): -
- Jeff (10/5): When we think about an ideal hotel room, this place is what we’re thinking about -
- Lisa (10/5): Great place to stay I recommend it - It was a great location. I love to shop and the stores are right around the corner.(2 stop lights and you’re there) Close to restaurants and Buc-ee’s 😍 king suite was awesome. The property is extremely clean. The continental breakfast was better than I thought it would be,lots of choices. N/A
- Kristine (10/5): -
- Tina (7/5): - Location King bed with sheets that didn't even cover mattress. Very weird. Breakfast taste was good but food was very cold and not restocked often.
- rosemQ773AP (10/5): Great hotel - Great hotel! Friendly staff. Very clean, rooms are roomy and the location is great!
- Rudy (10/5): -
- Sarah (10/5): -
- Stephanie (9/5): -
- Jesse (10/5): - Spacious room , staff was very friendly and helpful
- caseygllm (6/5): Nice hotel I just hope they keep it nice - Nice hotel but when Landon is working front desk the “be right back” sign is always out.
Gym ac never worked and they could get Pedlton bike to work and good luck on any towels in the gym. Four of the days I was there the towels were empty.
Second floor ice maker doesn’t work.
- MICHELE (10/5): Very nice, highly recommend - Very nice and comfortable!
- Z4225PNdianaw (8/5): Homewood suites New Braunfels - The first night our room had a master switch that turns off all the plugs and lights including the bathroom light. We were unable o turn off just the overhead light and leave the fan running. We reported it to the desk the next morning and thought the desk clerk would report the issue but he did not. The night clerk offered to change our room which we did and the second room was delightful. Wish we had not had the issue with the first room.
- crdude2013 (4/5): Disappointing and expensive. - In the first room the TV didn't work. The front desk clerk first said maintenance would be up to look at it, then later said no one was available. In the room we switched to the TV worked for a while but would not come on again after being off for a while. The ice machines on floors 2 and 3 were not working at all. The breakfast was mediocre. A housekeeper knocked on the door even though the Do Not Disturb sign was out. We were charged a good deal more than what the website advertises.
- Mary (10/5): -
- GlobeTrotting258694 (10/5): Front lobby out of the world ecstatic fragrance experience - All good except when you walk in the front desk entrance, don't know what they use to clean the floor or they did not wash or use old dirty floor mop, it smells tremendously like sewage smell, rotten eggs smell. Wow. $200 over dollars a night and it smells like sewage in the air. I overheard latter next day, a newly checked in family, a member spoke out loud, "smells like sewage". Wow. Regional manager or directors needs to visit this facility unannounced so their nose can smell the truth. Have a great day.
- F8386GElaurak (8/5): Great location and great employees - Employees are very friendly. Hotel is in a great area close to shopping and restaurants.
- bobbyrO3310YW (10/5): Friendly Service - The person who checked me in was energetic and very helpful. I usually don’t get smile and positive energy when I check into hotels for travel.
- Diana (10/5): Great price and location - Location and price
- Wanderer08994358648 (10/5): NBTX gem - Amazing as usual! Second time staying in and the enjoyed every minute of it.
The breakfast is amazing and the bed super comfortable
- Courtney (5/5): -
- James (10/5): - It was nice friendly
- Trip47701793232 (10/5): Great hotel! - Clean rooms, full mini kitchen, friendly staff!
- CindyW_Texas_USA (8/5): Love the layout of the suites. Great breakfast. - Great location for us, and a lovely floor plan. Very clean.
It might be time for a few refreshments to the decor - the ottoman in our room was peeling (fake leather).
Breakfast was great. Good variety for me as I am gluten free. I loved the chia pudding with toppings.
Unfortunately the 24 hour coffee wasn't available (front desk had said it would be...so it might have been a one-off?). But in the morning we got extra coffee packets from the front desk to make in our room so we were okay until breakfast time at 7 AM (weekend).
One elevator was out of service - which made for a bit of a wait sometimes. But since we are early risers we didn't have too bad of a jam up.
We have stayed here before and will stay again. Nice rooms at a good price point and in a good location for us.
- X7257DUmichaeld (8/5): Good location - The location was good, the hotel was clean and the staff was friendly. The water could have been hotter in the shower. One of the two elevators was out of order for the weekend.
- M328DAjasonh (8/5): Pleasant and clean stay with a couple of issues - The card key system was down but the staff was helpful, kind and patient. Please fix the EV charger; the adapter has been broken for at least a year and it seems unsafe.
- carolinasX8976WL (10/5): Amazing staff and great hotel - Had a great stay, staff was friendly, hotel was clean and beds were comfortable. I really would like to compliment the night front desk clerk, she was extremely professional and amazing she truly made our stay wonderful.
- lola517 (8/5): Clean, roomy & newish - Great communication, clean, and rooms were a nice size. There was also free breakfast which was ok but convenient. With that said the system went down and room cards couldn’t be produced. Luckily the mobile app worked with the digital keys. We were able to get our card keys the last night. Also rooms are cleaned every other day so had to throw out our own trash and call down and go get fresh towels. All that said it was a quiet stay and beds were comfortable.
- Pablo_Stra (8/5): Very good option for staying - Location is very good, with easy and fast access to several attractions (Gruene, San Marcos Outlets).
Atmosphere is nice, surrounded by several restaurants.
Rooms are very comfortable, with plenty of space.
Value for money is adequate
The hotel is clean
Noise level is adequate for sleeping
Service is good
Amenities are very good (gym, breakfast)
- FellowTraveler463899 (6/5): Check in clerk not very friendly - They did not greet me like normal and didn’t offer any free waters or anything. Eye unusual for the Hilton brand not to offer me complimentary water upon arrival.
- ccrydercars (10/5): Great location! - Very clean hotel.Friendly staff. Little extra bonuses like the ceiling fan, night light,and full kitchen.Great Location!
- Cowboyken20 (8/5): Good overall place to stay - We enjoyed our stay at Homewood Suites. It is our go to place to stay in New Braunfels when we are in town. We will stay there again!
- gingert471 (10/5): Great experience - Excellent location and service.... room very clean and breakfast was great friendly staff.
- christiner776 (10/5): Great Location & Wonderful Place to Stay! - Everything about my stay was wonderful! The front desk staff are friendly and helpful. My room was well designed and had all the amenities I needed. Most importantly, it was clean! The location is great! There are restaurants, coffee, shopping, etc. either in walking distance or a quick drive away. The breakfast is about what you would expect for a free breakfast. Overall, I am very pleased with my stay and will choose this hotel on my next visit!
- Steve (9/5): - Cleanliness 1 elevator was out
- Karen (10/5): -
- Megan (10/5): -
- Francis (7/5): Great stay & location - Very well set up poor response time to handle odor and a/c issues .
- Kayce (9/5): Overall the property was beautiful and very clean. Great water pressure in the shower. The kitchen is very functional an - How spacious and clean the room is. The bed was too hard
- Jaime (9/5): -
- 728beckyt (10/5): Good choice! - Definitely a newer built hotel. Convenient to many restaurants and shopping. Nice staff. Shared spaces were kept very clean.
- Kristina (10/5): -
- larry (8/5): - WiFi was to slow. Could not use
- 267marciap (10/5): Nice and clean stay - Nice and clean accommodations. The hotel is large, clean and in a good location, walking distance to stores and places to eat, drink, and listen to music. The room had a comfortable bed, sitting area, and full small kitchen. Full self serve breakfast in morning. Area seemed safe, had a nice stay and view with no issues.
- Relax733238 (10/5): My experience - Room was spacious, place was clean, wonderful place to stay. Hot breakfast was served each morning, staff was wonderful, definitely would recommend.
- Liz (10/5): - The size of Suite with kitchenette.. TV picture color was not as expected
- Tianna (8/5): -
- Jesus (10/5): -
- Burgess (9/5): Staff was very friendly and the room was very clean and comfortable - Very clean The way the bed was made was really strange. It had a mattress pad, then the fitted sheet then the flat sheet, then another mattress pad and the bedspread was put on upside down, so there was a fitted end up by our face that we ended up fighting with all night
Other than that, the room was very clean nice and comfortable
- Shelli (10/5): -
- Diana (10/5): Excellent location - Super convenient location for a good price!
- Melissa (10/5): - Clean, updated, super professional! Linens were comfy and furniture comfy. No complaints!
- OnAir10374305343 (10/5): Book a block for your bridal party - Clean room, comfortable bed with soft sheets, above average breakfast with real food, good service at the front desk. Would recommend.
Some difficulty getting the block together - complications between corporate and the site.
- vicleal (8/5): taveling with family - In general the hotel was good, the room was big but they did not clean it during our stay and de breakfast was very limited.
- tulaneh2017 (10/5): Very Nice Hotel ! - The hotel atmosphere was relaxing and comfortable. Everyone was friendly and professional. Room was very nice - spacious, clean and comfortable and appropriate for the rates.
- Spencer0506 (8/5): Clean and comfortable hotel. - We were in town for a reunion. The location of Homewood suites worked for us. Traffic is heavy in the area-but it is heavy all over New Braunfels. The hotel was clean. It was nice to have a refrigerator and extra space. The elevators worked well. Parking was not an issue. There are restaurants within walking distance.
The food at breakfast was good but the plates were styrofoam. Even the utensils were plastic and came wrapped in plastic. The coffee cups were paper. I hate to see hotels contribute to the landfill in this way.
- Espinosa (10/5): I would recommend - Clean and that’s always a plus at a hotel. Center of a lot of places and there’s a Buc-ee’s right around the corner and HEB too When we came back at 11 PM, our key cards would not work and they didn’t have a maintenance person they could help us so we were gonna have to wait until someone showed up. The person at the counter didn’t show any empathy and just said that someone would be around. I had to ask how long. She said 45 minutes.
- Kimberly (10/5): - The hotel was beautiful! Very modern and clean. Definitely recommend! We walked over to Freiheit Country store for a great dinner and live music.
- Enrique (10/5): - From beginning to end It was an EXCELLENT experience/stay
From the Courteous Staff to the Breakfast
Thank You
- Dina (10/5): - Well thought out property. Lots of amenities!
- Axel (10/5): - Awesome experience
- Mercedes (8/5): - The only issue
- C7210UMdavidm (10/5): Great experience! - Jayden was an incredible host and made sure our check in went smoothly! She gave us a clear breakdown of the hotel and all its amenities. I’m very satisfied with the high quality of the room and the vibe of this hotel. I highly recommend you stay here!
- Gregory (6/5): - The room had been released to the public too soon! Lamp shades didn't have nuts on the top of the shade frames, the bathroom door didn't fit so it rubbed twice each time it was opened or closed, the maid would come at the end of her shift and leave us no choice, if we wanted fresh towels, we had to do it ourselves...bathroom was filled with construction dust in the corners...etc. Overall, someone wasn't doing their job.
- 828chaseb (8/5): Mediocre with some issues with maintenance - Was a good experience except the AC was not working properly in room, temp never got under 72…. On our level the main AC in hall wasn’t working either… it was hot when you left room.
Also the light in kitchen was flickering and not working properly, my wife has a sensitivity to flashing lights.
Finally, we were told we’d get our room cleaned every other day. We had a. 3 day stay with no cleaning or tidying.
Room was small and had far too much furniture in it.
- Marina (6/5): - The hotel was just ok. For what it cost, we’d expect more. The door was off level or something and it was heavy to open and close. We joked that it was a prison door. The room did not smell good at all, it was musty like or dirty something. The restroom baseboard was broken and the toilet paper holder had been replaced so the old holes were just filled with putty. It wasn’t all “bad,” I would just expect more for the price. It was a great area with lots of options for dining, entertainment and even a church all within walking distance. It felt safe. I wouldn’t “highly recommend” here, but it will work if it’s all that’s available.
- Susan (10/5): - The hotel is very clean and has a good breakfast with a wide variety of options.
- 80alissas (8/5): Last minute stay - I had to get a last minute room. I stayed at Homewood suites in New Braunfels. The room was great but my toilet stopped working around 9 pm. I called and they sent someone to fix it right away.
The breakfast was really good also.
- jholl9 (10/5): Great hotel! - The hotel and our room were extremely clean and well furnished! Staff was kind and helpful. Would definitely stay here again.
- Joseph (10/5): - Nice and close to frieheiht store
- Don (10/5): - The room was super clean in very good condition. Staff was friendly and attentive. Will definitely stay there again
- Savannah (10/5): Weekend Getaway - We had a very pleasant stay. We enjoyed the pool and court.
- jenniferhK8506NV (10/5): Wonderful Stay! - Amazing property! Our check in was smooth with digital key and our room was nice, clean and cool upon arrival! Breakfast had good options as well!
- Elizabeth (10/5): - Denise Hinds was a Godsend. I will forever be grateful for her.
- scott (9/5): -
- Margarette (10/5): Excellent stay thoroughly recommended - Loved Everything it was a shame we were travelling as would have loved to stay longer . The facilities, location , staff and rooms are all fantastic the complimentary breakfast was excellent too Clean rooms friendly helpful staff an excellent pool . Everything you need for a first class stay is there , highly recommended . Nothing - we loved it all
- Alexis (10/5): - Awesome staff. Delicious breakfast. This hotel is incredibly clean & very aesthetically pleasing. My family & I thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. This hotel exceeded my expectations.
- Valerie (10/5): Loved this place - I loved the space in the room, the temperature being adjustable, and the amenities and friendly staff My only complaint is the tub, it is extremely slippery and can be dangerous
- Rodriguez (10/5): -
- BARBARA (6/5): The shower was good - The stay was uncomfortable. The mattress was not great. I bring my own pillow. There were no towels or extra TP when we arrived. I told the walking dead guy at the front desk that we were almost out of TP when we arrived. He said, uh huh. Then after a second he asked if i needed any. I said, yes, one. When we got off the elevators, we were several times met with large carts pushing onto the elevators without seeing who they're running into. We had to yell out, stop. The elevator beeps so loud on each floor that i had to cover my ears. The breakfast is good. If you want coffee in the afternoon, it's cold so make your own. Never staying there again. They did offer step in low showers with no tub to get into which is why we stayed there. Nice shower and big rooms with full kitchen and couch area which was very nice. The building was a little tricky to find.
- janetfN9324NQ (10/5): Amazing weekend stay. - We had a great weekend away. The room was spacious, very clean, bed was amazing, large shower was wonderful. I would definitely stay there again.
- 306AntonioA306 (10/5): Great front-desk staff, clean hotel and spacious room. - The hotel was clean and the room was clean and spacious. The front desk personnel were also very helpful and service-oriented.
- carlajN5995WN (4/5): Would book another location if one was available. - It’s a nice facility because it’s new, but customer service is lacking. Just be aware they don’t fully honor their advertised amenities, for example breakfast until 10:00 am on weekends and holidays. They start pulling food and drinks off at exactly 9:00 even if people are still waiting in line for food. It was really bad form, especially on a holiday weekend when lots of families were staying here.
- stephaniegL1257FF (10/5): Clean Room - Nice and very clean, free breakfast was really good. Bed was very comfy and deposit for room snack bar was a lower amount that most which was refreshing.
- Cristina (10/5): - Room Was Really Clean and Comfortable. Patio Chairs and Fire Pit Was Fantastic!! The Hallway on The 3rd Floor Was Hot. And Housekeeping Is Only Scheduled For Every Other Day But They Should Really At Least Take Trash Out Every Day Because The Trash Cans Are Very Small
- Tracy (4/5): -
- Lisa (10/5): - The front desk associate Denise was very pleasant and nice. She made us feel so welcome! Her knowledge and assistance with getting us check in, complementary water and a list of the restaurants in the area. The room was excellent! Very clean and spacious we had a king studio, we stayed one night. I love the Hilton and I would recommend this hotel and we will stay again for any future endeavors to this area! August 23-24, 2025
- L. Allen (10/5): - Nice place. Linen was nice but I would have thought I’d get a better mattress, but it wasn’t too bad
- Cruiser06376582611 (10/5): Would stay here again! - What a nice place to stay! It's not right off the Interstate, so it's way more quiet, but it's easy to get to. It had a nice pool, a nice workout room, a half court basketball court and a fire pit. Close to shopping and many restaurants. Speaking of food, the breakfast there is SO good! We were there 2 mornings and there were breakfast tacos available with your choice of meat and eggs and flavored potatoes with a choice of corn or flour tortillas. The meats varied each day, but one day there were sausage links or braised pork in a red sauce (so good) and the next day there was bacon or chorizo. They have cheese and several choices of wonderful hot sauce. And that's not all.....if you like chia pudding or overnight oats, they have those too!! Where else could you get those? They had a good choice of fruits, danish and breads and yogurts. AND the breakfast staff were so good at keeping items stocked and they were so friendly. Breakfast area was large. At check in and check out we were met with nice folks as well. As for the room, it was clean and the hotel looked fairly new. The bed was a little firm for us, but that's always a toss up isn't it? We chose a King Suite, so there was not a separate room for the bed. BUT there was a ceiling fan over the bed!! What?! It did make some noise and we couldn't find a remote, but still.....a ceiling fan! The kitchen was nice and well stocked. The only thing we would ding them on was the toilet. It was WAY too short and very close to the ground. There was also not good lighting in the bathroom when trying to take a shower. The water was soft though, which was nice. They even had pretty nice carts to take your items to your rooms. But as many have said on reviews, only 1 elevator was working. Apparently it had been out a couple of months. Overall a good stay!
- normagE4776WS (10/5): Great place to stay - Staff was friendly and happy to help. Rooms were clean and very comfortable. Great location. Stayed here a few time and will continue to do so .
- Norma (10/5): - Great location with walking distance to nice local restaurants and very clean and comfortable beds
- Gabrielle (7/5): Great hotel, great location - The location was perfect. The hotel was nice and clean. Only 1 elevator working so movement in and out the hotel took some patience. The staff was great and the beds were SUPER comfortable Check in at 3... I should at least get 24hours worth for the daily rate.
- Luis (10/5): - It was nice.
- Wesley (9/5): I enjoyed my stay, except for the first night, I could hear loud stamping above us, but the other night I slept well. - The bed was comfortable.Good location Noisy upstairs guest
- Michael (10/5): - Everything was excellent
- dianne (9/5): -
- Venture29309791263 (10/5): Smaller Version of Hotel with Good Staff That Aims to Please - I visited this property twice in one month.
On a scale of 1-5, using relevant criteria, I ranked this hotel at a 4.66 – pretty darn good in my book!
1. Reservation App/ Web Site: 4.5 points. App would not work unless cell phone was connected to hotel WIFI, which made the digital app almost impossible to use!
2. Check In/Awards Program: 5 points. On both visits, I was greeted by a friendly staffer, checked in without delays, and provided with two free bottled waters (free with the awards program).
3. Location/Nearby Businesses: 5 points: Ideally located within walking distance of several niche restaurants and bars that serve food. A short driving distance from main stream dining and shopping options. Blocks away from local ER, hospital and medical facilities. Less than a mile away from the main freeway.
4. Front Desk/Customer Service: 5 points. They pick up the phone if you call for help with something. Greet you with little delay at the front desk, resolve any issues, and follow up to find out if the issue was taken care of.
5. Overall Property Cleanliness: 4.5 points. Employee spent a LOT of time cleaning up pool water puddles on the ground floor hallways and the elevator – but made a serious effort to do so during prime time pool use. Parking lot has more than a few trees that tend to attract birds that use the parked cars for their dumping grounds.
6. Amenities in Room: 4 points. Both stays had me taking off stained top comforters and putting them away in a drawer. Blankets proved to be a safer bet. Sheets were crispy and clean! Only 2 sets of towels were provided, which meant requesting or heading to the front desk to ask for more towels to get us through the 4/5 night length stays. And you probably need to get an extra roll or two of TP while you are grabbing more towels.
7. Room Cleaning: 4.5 points. Rooms are cleaned and restocked every 3rd day of your stay (basically the 4th day you are there). I emptied the kitchen garbage myself and caught up with cleaning service employees to throw away. Garbage bins near elevators were always jammed with all kinds of food related garbage in the one bin and on the floor in front of the bin.
8. A/C, Heating, Lights, TV, WIFI, Plumbing: 4.5 points. A/C worked fine. All lights worked when used. First stay had me fighting with a remote and TV that just didn’t work with the cable service being used. But a request for service, had a tech guy replacing the TV and remote as soon as he figured out what the problem was. Ceiling fans looked pretty dusty and were too high to clean myself - so I did not use. WIFI with awards membership is free, protected by a login and worked great. You almost have to use the WIFI to get internet service on the property, as cell service in that area is dismal. On my second stay, I ended up with a toilet with a valve pump that would get stuck every few flushes. I dealt with it, only because I knew how to. I reported it when I left, and I expect they had repaired once the room was free. I just didn’t feel like having to deal with it being repaired while I was in the room (my choice!)
9. In Room Kitchen Amenities: 5 points. All appliances worked, including the garbage disposal. Eating utensils, plates and glasses all came in 4’s.
10. Common Areas, Parking, 4 points. Lobby, Elevators, Lobby Store: One of the elevator’s was down for repairs during both of my visits. That got annoying during prime time when employees were cleaning rooms and check out times! Parking is spacious, free, and well lit. The lobby store was decently stocked. There are no vending machines available.
11. Pool, Gym, Indoor Seating, Patio Area: 5 points. Pool was clean and well secured – with towels available for use. Indoor seating - Breakfast areas are perfect for meeting, gathering and doing work. The gym was cool, clean, and stocked with cleaning supplies and towels.
12. Included Breakfast/Coffee: 5 points. On my first stay, there was no hot breakfast being served due to remodeling? Yet, there were enough alternatives served to have a good breakfast! By my second stay, they were back to offering hot breakfast items (an egg, potato and sausage choice). Throughout both stays, the offerings were above average, with fresh fruits, an inviting fruit salad offered, and the usual fare of breads, pastries, oatmeal, yogurts, as well as a well stocked coffee bar. The breakfast staff was super friendly and helpful!
