Top Rusk Hotel Reviews

Motel 6 Nacogdoches TX

8/10 Good

"Accommodations were adequate for our needs. Staff was friendly and helpful. Our room was clean for the most part. (The floor was a little gritty.) Disappointed that the pool was not adequately maintained. (It looked like the Black Lagoon!) All but one of the ice machines was broken but we had all the ice we needed. The location was very good for us."

Red Roof Inn Nacogdoches

10/10 Excellent

"Here is a warm, engaging review you can post: 5/5 Stars I had a wonderful experience at the Red Roof Inn Nacogdoches this past weekend! From start to finish, everything about my stay was top-notch. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, and the overall value for the price is unbeatable. The staff was friendly and welcoming, making sure I had everything Ineeded for a smooth weekend trip. If you are looking for an affordable, high-quality, and hassle-free place to stay in Nacogdoches, I couldn't recommend this location enough. I will definitely be back!"

Farm retreat in Rusk sleeps 6, with separate cookhouse ,bbq area, pool access!

10/10 Excellent

"What a wonderful and peaceful place this is to stay! Exactly as portrayed in the posting. Very friendly and communicative hosts (but also very willing to respect space and privacy). The accommodations were cozy, clean and comfortable (a coupe of wasps we did battle with but as should be expected with a rural locale). Their dogs have impeccable manners. If bringing a dog you might bring a tie out (to be used as you supervise of course) as we ended up having to attach leash to chairs to have a hand free to drink coffee. They do provide an outside kennel as well as crates. (We brought our own.) We’ll be back!"
