Top South Mountain Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Express & Suites Gatesville - N. Ft Hood by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was great from early check-in to leaving."

Blue Hills Ranch

10/10 Excellent

"We're celebrating our 26th anniversary and this place . This place made our experience magnificent. It was easy to connect with nature, and the interaction with all the animals was spectacular. Being able to touch and feed the giraffes was our favorite moment. The staff is very kind and helpful. The cabins are very comfortable, clean, and well-maintained. We will definitely return to this place as often as we can."

Atria Hotel and RV McGregor

8/10 Good

"The hotel building and the furniture in my room are on the older side, but everything is very well maintained. That didn’t bother me for a second. What’s important to me is that the room was really clean. Although I would personally prefer hardwood or laminate flooring, the room itself was very well kept. My room key card was easily deactivated after sitting next to my wallet and credit cards, according to the staff. But that’s really irrelevant—they fixed it within a minute without asking any questions. I’m mentioning it only as a note for future guests: keep the key card away from credit cards or other possible sources of magnetism. The newly installed Smart TV, at least I assume it was new, was a little harder to figure out at first. All in all, I strongly recommend this place. Afan P."

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay was absolutely incredible. The house was stunningly beautiful, immaculately clean, and came with a very well-stocked kitchen, including a blender! The decor was tasteful and created a cozy atmosphere perfect for a weekend getaway. Our host was incredibly communicative and attentive to our needs. I highly recommend this charming little retreat. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience."

Tonkawa Riverfront Retreat: Secluded Oasis, just 20 miles to Baylor/McLane/Silos

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was great. There was only one problem and there wasn’t no curtains on none of the windows or shades so therefore, when the maintenance man came out there, they could see everything that was going on in the house that’s only only issue. I had everything else excellent."
