We enjoyed the hotel room ambience and the town is charming. We found it very quiet compared to a normal city. I suppose you could consider the sound of the train as a part of the historic city landscape or annoying. We thought the former. While the staff is minimally involved, it is a limited service hotel so we didn't... More

I've noticed some people like to pan old hotels because they are not a five-star state-of-the art big boy hotel. No Jacuzzi tubs. No turndown service. No flat screen televisions. No mint on the pillow. To me, avoiding all that is the point when I go to a small town like Jefferson, Texas to experience the history. The Jefferson Hotel... More

The Jefferson hotel is noisy and old. Calling it historic is being kind. The service is lacluster. When we called to reconfirm our reservations at 1 in the afternoon and got a recording saying they were closed. The sign on the front desk says no noise after 10 PM--that was a joke because the noise in the halls made sleeping... More

The historic Excelsior House Hotel, on 211 W. Austin, is wrongly listed in B&B's, where it is #10, despite glowing reviews. My failure to realize this resulted in my staying in a B&B, and missing out on an incredibly spacious, and elegantly furnished, genuine historic room for $85 a night! I simply want to make sure all viewers know about... More

We stayed overnight in room 1 at the Jefferson Hotel on 2/10/12. The hotel is located just off the highway in a quiet area of town. There is a bakery that serves breakfast and dinner, sandwich shop, and general store across the street. Room 1 is actually upstairs at the end of the hallway. Next to the room is a... More

Friends and I recently stayed at the Jefferson Hotel for our annual peeps weekend in Jefferson. We've stayed here every year for 10+ years. This historic hotel is so charming and the staff is friendly and helpful. The room was clean, and had everything we needed. We found out when checking in that the hotel has a new owner, whom... More

A group of us meet every year at the Jefferson Hotel. The hotel is old, but is charming. The beds were comfortable and clean. New owner, Jeff, talked at length to let us know the changes that will be taking place in the future. We love the balcony! Usually on Sunday evenings, we are the only guests and the hotel... More

We had our first stay at the Jefferson Hotel this last weekend. The service was excellent, the room was clean and the beds were comfortable. We met the new owner; he indicated many changes coming to the building in the way of bathrooms improvements (showers specifically) and decor. We would definitely stay again, loved being so close to walk to... More
