The Gage Hotel in Marathon ,Texas is a jewel honoring Texas history and creating a place of serenity and wonder. I've been visiting the hotel for 20 years, and never has it been more beautiful. Big sky and wide open range surround the hotel, with much to explore and discover. One can stay plugged into the outside world of news... More

The outside of the hotel is beautiful, unlike anything I have seen and it is very close to Big Bend but for what they charge,with no in room television, rock hard beds and shared bathroom in my opinion not worth it!

This hotel is great! There is nothing to do in Marathon, so we only stayed one night. We went specifically to stay there and we loved it. We stayed in the courtyard are. The room was very nice size, the bed was great, the bathroom was lovely and the decor was perfect for the western theme. We ate at the... More

We stayed at hotels throughout the Big Bend area and ended our travels here at this very quaint hotel. We stayed in the Los Portales part of the hotel and the decor is just awesome. Grounds, room and pool was very clean. Bit pricey but for us worth it to round out our weekend. We ate dinner at The White... More

Big Bend National Park has been on my must see list for a long time. My wife and I arranged a trip there with two other couples with whom we have been friends for more than 40 years. One of the couples now lives in Texas and knew about the Gage Hotel. After spending several nights at the Chisos Mountain... More

The exterior and grounds are clean and attractive. The pool area and the landscaping are first class. Service was OK. Highlight was the 12 Gage restaurant and the White Buffalo Bar. Our Los Portales room was OK. The bed was comfortable, and the fireplace was a nice touch. On the downside we had to keep resetting the GFCI outlets as... More

My daughter and I just finished a great backpacking trip to Big Bend. She picked me up from the Austin airport and we drove to Marathon so we could get an early start the next day. The hotel is only an hour from the main entrance of the park. What a treat it is! It has a wonderful old west... More

The Gage Hotel hosted my dear friend's wedding and I was extremely impressed with every aspect of the event, the hotel, its rooms and especially the service. Perhaps its the small town of Marathon and the fact that everyone knows everyone, but you will be hard pressed to find friendlier people anywhere. I have traveled all across the U.S. and... More

My husband and I celebrated our anniversary at the Gage. We could not have picked a better spot! We took our bloodhound along too - she loved it, and the hotel staff were so sweet to her. The food was incredible - I am a huge foodie and was so impressed! Loved everything we ate - so fresh and delicious.... More

Conveniently located near Big Bend National Park, I love the way this hotel is decorated with beautiful western artwork, antiques, and flowers. We stayed in the old part which gives you the feel of an old western movie set. The lobby and the room were very comfortable. The newer part also looked inviting with lovely gardens. Not every room in... More
