Inn on Barons Creek

Friendly staff. The first night, we were loaned a bottle opener and two glasses for the wine purchased in the hotel store. Walking distance to the 290 winery shuttle, which was very nice, and into town. Cute little town. Breakfast goes early but if you can wait more is served.

Ok Nice place. Clean room mostly updated but don’t be fooled. The creek is more like a the water the flows down the street when wash your car and is not interesting at all. Friendly staff. Clean rooms and halls and convenient to Main Street. Just 2 blocks. Recommend over «Holiday Inn» n GO LOCAL! STAY LOCAL!

Pricey for what it is, but its not bad, there is a nice view and its close to main Street, walking distance

For the most part; we enjoyed our stay at the Inn On Barons Creek. Arriving Friday for two nights; we found the front desk lady a bit gruff. That is quite possibly because of our early arrival. A few hopeful minutes later we had our room way before the actual check in time.
We got a great room all the way at the end of a second floor hallway! A spacious bath with a jacuzzi tub adorned the bathroom. Next, the living area with dorm fridge, loveseat, desk, and HDTV. Inside the bedroom overlooking the creek a king bed and other HDTV. Only complaint for the room was dated bed linens.
The pool slash hot tub was nice except for the tiny towels to dry off with. Also, the kids were really loud which leads me to a Fredericksburg top tip. Want a romantical weekend and a place that outlaws children? That would be the Hangar Hotel folks obviously at the airport. Don’t forget to hang in the Officer’s Club bar to wind down. Order an Aviation.
My biggest issue was the complimentary breakfast. First morning while waiting for the wife to awaken I ventured in for coffee and a snack. Eggs looked terrible, like a disgusting yellow blob in a steel coffin. I decide on a waffle instead only to have bang on the kitchen door to ask for syrup. Ah, the chef de cuisine playing on his cell phone.
Next morning I daresay was worse. This time no meat options and the chafing dishes were empty on multiple stations. Oh well, perhaps an orange juice from that snappy machine. No pulp bag, just water dispensed. I decided to grab a plate, then another as the first wasn’t clean. I gave up and decided free isn’t always good; try the Sunset Grill like we did.
Having stayed at a few good spots in Fredericksburg, the overall experience less the dining woes I found my stay quite satisfactory. If you compare it to the Bed ‘n Brew, Inn on Barons Creek is away from the main drag so less road noise. If I didn’t plan on swimming, I’d pick the Hangar and the airport spectacle that only it can provide

Husband and I stayed here for a Friday & Saturday night. Pricey, but honestly all other hotels in the area were about the same because of location, so we decided to stay somewhere local. The room was huge and very clean and quiet. We had a jacuzzi tub which was awesome! our room was located closest to the main road, but we couldn’t hear any traffic. The bed was a little too firm for my taste & the blankets kept sliding around, but still slept fairly well. The lobby was very nice, and the breakfast area was clean and spacious. There’s not a huge buffet, but the food was better than most hotel breakfasts. The staff was very friendly and helpful. It’s also within walking distance of Main Street. We would stay there again.

The hotel is excellent! the staff are so nice… the people at the spa center do a completely amazing job of taking care of whatever you come in there for! the rooms are very elegant with lots of space! I got more out of this hotel than was planned. this hotel is for any person coming to Fredericksburg Tx!

This post only relates to the spa.
I went here on a recommendation. I would likely not recommend to others. The atmosphere is ok — situated in an old house that has been converted. There are many spa items for sale in the reception area.
I am fairly certain that my masseuse may have been distracted (perhaps playing with her phone or something) during a good 15 minutes of my massage. It was a bit awkward and I didn’t feel comfortable addressing with the person during the session. Massage was decently priced — $ ⁸⁰⁄₅₀ mins.

We got a Jacuzzi tub room and booked a couples massage at the spa next door (under same ownership). Our room was hot and almost impossible to get cool. Sheets & towels were rough (sheets were also wrinkled badly) and there wasn’t any Kleenex/​tissue in the room; not what I expect paying $ 150/​night.
They also put us in the room next to the road, no view of the nice grounds and we heard truck noise (air brakes?) often even over the constant air conditioner trying to cool off the room. Breakfast was okay, some cut up fruit might have been nice. I also told them when booking the room it was our anniversary and there was no mention of that here or next door who I also told and the mgr asked me what anniversary, but again no mention.
Judging them for what it cost us at both the hotel & spa, they just did not provide the type of customer services touches ppl would expect for the price.

Wow, on the river — no that would be on the main hwy to San Antonio overlooking the metal above entrance. Super thin windows that did not deflect noise. Dated and disappointed from Arizona :((

A great place to stay especially with a room overlooking the creek. They kindly had a chilled bottle of champaign for us for our 10 year anniversary — unexpected and a fun start to our stay. Their breakfast is good too.
The bed and pillows weren’t that comfortable (too firm and springy) and I felt and found a Q-​tip between the fitted sheet and the bed — gross. Hence the 4star review instead of a 5.

Very nice inn with hospitable staff and comfortable and cozy lodging facilities. Breakfast is good and fresh and well stocked even with the hoards of people at 10 am on Sunday morning. I felt it was very clean and the blankets on the bed were just fine. Pillows and mattress comfortable and clean. Wifi pretty good. I didn’t try the workout room. Pool was small but clean and kept up well. Hot tub clean as well. I really liked the fact that the back area overlooking and including Baron’s creek was well kept up and you could go down and get away from the rest of the hotel guests. I didn’t try the spa although it was nice to have a discounted coupon for the spa for just staying there. Parking was very nice. And of course the location is great. Within 3 blocks of walking distance to the main stretch. And thank you for allowing people to have a 1 night stay there. So many of us from the surrounding bigger cities appreciate the ability to just get out of town overnight for 1 night and don’t have the time or money to stay longer.

Not really worth the price. The room wasn’t anything special, the shower head wouldn’t stay up and the breakfast area was a disaster. The location was close to the main street in Fredericksburg and that part was convenient, but other than that I wasn’t overly impressed.

Recently made a trip to the awesome place that is Fredericksburg, TX and stayed here with my family. The location was great, being that was only a few blocks from the Main Street. The outside was very old school but nice looking, easy access with the car port being right in front to drop off you’re stuff. No valet, but parking was plentiful. Here’s the break down…
Location: As stated, right off Washington near Main Street, no need to drive and find parking during busy weekends, just leave the car parked at the hotel and walk. Area feels safe, constant patrolling squad cards, and overall affluent area of Town
Place: The lobby is great, very clean, very old style Texas ranch type theme. Have a nice sitting /​library area, with plenty of chairs to sit. The eating area is big and open, plenty of chairs, but though breakfast was complimentary, we were having a hard time no matter how early we went (they serve 6−10a) to get any food, and were constantly finding ourselves waiting for food
Rooms: nice rooms, a little dated when compared to the lobby, but overall not bad. Mini-​fridge provided with microwave. Shower and bathroom were decent, though the lights were on the outside of the bathroom which were just weird to me, hah. We had two queen beds, which were soft and comfortable though the sheets were a little weird, over-​starched, and just not that comfortable when trying to cover up. No patio access, but our view of the creek was nice.
Service: Front desk were decent, they greeted with smiles and helped us, but we felt we had to pry for information, We had to ask about the breakfast, ask about times of the pool, or if they even had a gym. When we arrived, it seemed like they just had us sign in and take keys, and that was it for them. I understand it was a busy Labor day weekend, but they could have been more helpful.
Amenities/​Food: The pool is nice, right off the back of the hotel backing up the creek. But when it gets dark, there is no light in the pool, so little weird swimming around the in the dark. There were even people out that were trying to enjoy wine and cigars in the dark, and had to use some makeshift flashlight for lighting. The creek was nice, can walk down, lots of patio chairs, little waterfall, and you can walk down to the creek and skip stones or just zone out, so that was nice.
Price: The only reason it was worth the price for me, was because location. Other than that, it seemed a little too pricey for the amenities and rooms.
Summary: In the end, we would probably come back here if we wanted to have that easy access to downtown at a nice price, but it probably won’t be my first choice next time. With the lackluster service, dated rooms, and almost non-​existent breakfast, we will be hard pressed to want to try this place again on our next trip…

It’s really pretty there. Quite spacious. Beds are comfortable. They don’t have very nice blankets. I liked the bathrooms, they too were spacious.

Conveniently located right off of highway 87 about 2 blocks before Main Street. That is one of the biggest pros of the hotel: tons of dining, shopping, and bars within walking distance. The rooms are a good size with a living room area with couch separated from the bedroom area by large pocket doors. The bathrooms are also a good size with large bathtub. The furniture is a bit outdated, but the beds are still comfortable with plenty of pillows and blankets. Housekeeping was on top of things and brought plenty of towels. The parking would have been easy, but tons of people with trucks and suvs were taking up 2 spots. I had to park a little way up the road. Breakfast is served from 6 to 10 and had self service pancakes, eggs, sausage, biscuits and toast.
The Inn on Barons Creek is one of the few hotels that doesn’t require a 2 night minimum over the weekend. I’m sure there are good deals on bed and breakfasts, but most require the full weekend, so Barrons Creek is ideal if you just want to spend one night. And City of Fredericksburg: please update the sidewalks leading up to Main Street before some person gets hit by a car.

Highly recommended! Went to Fredericksburg for a weekend getaway and was told to stay here. I definitely don’t regret taking their advice. From their friendly staff to beautiful rooms, I give them a 5 stars all around!

I found this hotel very comfortable for my extended stay in Fredericksburg. The bed was very firm, which is how I like them. The maid service was just so-​so, as they didn’t seem to vacuum during the 2 weeks that I was there. The staff at the front desk was very friendly. I’d definitely stay here again.
