The coolest historic hotel with top drawer amenities!

This is go to place in Big Spring. Our room was large corner suite on the seventh floor. Walk in to a foyer with a chandelier, wet bar,coffee machine and a hidden mini fridge. Main room had a love seat, desk and king bed. The hall had a makeup area and clothes storage with large mirrors. The bathroom was mostly marble with a huge shower closed in with glass. All the fixtures were first class. 5 star rating! No expense was spared in renovating the Hotel!

Very nice historic hotel
-
Air conditioning units (one for bedroom and one for sitting room and bathroom) were noisy; the sitting room thermostat was erratic. The 3rd floor building corner unit was subject to some street noise, but in Big Spring this does not last very late; I'm not particularly noise sensitive. The retro bathroom was attractive, but limited by only a very small shelf for toiletries, and a sink incorporated spicket emitting water several inches below the top of the sink. The mid-summer air conditioning performance was good; exceptionally good water pressure. Hotel staff were cordial and helpful. Dinner at the restaurant was nothing special, just OK. Meal service was very slow, but that did not bother me much on this particular night.

Hotel was great but went to go get dinner at restaurant inside hotel and I was the only one inside restaurant and wait was terrible.

The hotel is beautiful. The staff was friendly and helpful. Our original room had an issue with the AC so I told the front desk and they moved us to another room where the AC worked great. We used the weight room and the pool and both were in great condition. We ate at the onsite restaurant and the food was excellent and the bar was very nice too.

Not sure where to start. I've lived in West Texas my whole life, except for 2 years, but I've always wanted to stay there. I'm so very grateful I made it there and made it with my lovely girlfriend. It was a nice staycation. The room was amazing, the jets were powerful on the tub and the staff were so helpful and nice. Unlike a big hotel chain that I am a rewards member with, I didn't have to give a deposit. So. If I want to get away again, I'll be coming there again. Thanks!!

very quiet, very relaxing love all the restoring that they’ve done pool and hot tub wonderful

My husband and I stayed for the long weekend and absolutely loved it! Such a beautiful restoration on a historic building. The staff were all very friendly but big shout out to the front desk attendant Abigail. She is so friendly and helpful. We had a small issue with the bathtub and she came and fixed it herself. The wait staff in the bar and grill very friendly as well. The room was beautiful and spacious, and nice and quiet. The bed was comfortable. We loved the jetted tub and separate shower situation. The bar and grill were nice as well the food was delicious and the drinks were consistent. The only downside is there is no microwave and we are a leftover family. There is also a wonderful restaurant across the street called Devour that was really good too! We used the pool and it was nice and shaded. Overall would definitely stay again.

Amazing oasis in a desert town! Beautiful rooms, incredible pool/hot tub area. Bass from night club across the street shook the window until midnight Friday night. Otherwise, a perfect stay!

Beautifully restored to original 1930 design (just after the Roaring Twenties) although some rooms have been demoed to make others larger and more luxurious with modern features. Lobby is fabulous, but best feature is large outdoor pool and separate hot tub. I'm pretty sure this is a fresh water pool, so no stinging eyes from chlorine.
