The English Merchant's Inn

Honestly I would advise spending as much time as you can at the hotel. Waxahachie has a lot of fun things to do but you won’t find more history than inside the hotel.

I couldn't see the TV from the bed - that would be the only thing I would change.

I absolutely loved my stay here! I would happily stay again in the future. The place is peaceful, welcoming, and very comfortable. A special thank you to Tony and Howard for their kindness, hospitality, and for making me feel right at home. Highly recommended!.

A lovely stay

Thank you. Wonderful stay. Very nice and pleasant.

Loved the location, the style of the Inn. Great people and friendly!

Tony greeted us and filled us in of pall the happpings in town a very lovely place

Quit and comfortable value staff very EZ to work with and friendly After rechecking my check in info Bookings messed up my check in time it’s like they auto changed it.. but Howard at the resort managed it and accommodated us which was wonderful!

The owner and property manager were incredibly attentive and welcoming. They were very communicative from the moment booking was made until we checked out. Bed was comfortable, we selected a room with a patio, there are only two that have that option at this property and would highly recommend selecting one of those rooms. They are very generous when it comes to dollar allocation to provide breakfast at one of three local establishments. If you like boutique style hotels, then you should check this one out!

It felt homey which I very much wanted for my birthday weekend. A lovely host, beautiful weather, and a nice town with many choices of wonderful food, made for great weekend.

The room was amazing! Everything was perfect for our stay.

Very quaint place to stay if you’re in this area. Howard was a delightful host.

Well mice wife was horrified with the blood on the comforter and the blood on the next layer, the blanket. Folks, replace the decaying carpet going up the stairs. The place is like being preserved in time but not kept up in time.

This house was amazing. I loved learning about the history of the house and the family that owned it.

The Inn is beautiful. Howard was a wonderful host. He communicated our breakfast options as soon as the reservation was completed. We had a late check in, and he was prompt in replies. The rooms were clean. My only recommendation would be to trim the bush in front of the house. It was a little difficult to walk around and stay on the side walk. I would definitely recommend staying here.

From the moment we arrived, the English Merchant Inn exceeded every expectation. The historic charm of the building is beautifully maintained, yet every comfort feels modern and thoughtful. Our room was spotless, cozy, and full of character, with little touches that made it feel special. The innkeepers were warm and welcoming—always ready with helpful recommendations and a genuine smile. Breakfast each morning was absolutely delicious and clearly made with care. The location is ideal for exploring the area, but it’s also so peaceful that you can simply relax and soak in the atmosphere. We left feeling refreshed and already planning our next visit. I can’t recommend the English Merchant Inn highly enough for anyone looking for a perfect blend of comfort, history, and hospitality.

Lovely place to stay. Great atmosphere. The owner was friendly and gave us a nice tour of the home. Everything necessary for a nights stay. Wish our trip had been longer than just one night.

Beautiful swanky property with charm and neat items throughout the home
