Top Baylor University Hotel Reviews

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham Waco Downtown - Baylor

10/10 Excellent

"Room was very clean and breakfast was better than most continental breakfasts. It is very close to Baylor and The Silos as well as many restaurants."

Cambria Hotel Waco Univ Riverfront

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect! Everything was simply perfect"

Hotel 1928

10/10 Excellent

"Hotel was lovely and our room was nice. Disappointed that the coffee bar was closed and there weren’t many tables to sit outside at the rooftop restaurant. Food was very good and staff were all wonderful."

Super 8 by Wyndham Waco University Area

8/10 Good

"It is a good budget friendly option. Because of the price it tends to attract a rougher crowd but I never felt unsafe. Did smell weed throughout the hallways but I am not sure how they stop that.."

Holiday Inn Express & Suites Waco Downtown by IHG

8/10 Good

"Great staff. Bathroom had an odd smell. Like it hadn't been used and cleaned for a while. Housekeeping came in and disinfected immediately and it was fine. A child was sick in the drop off lane and it was not cleaned the entire weekend. I saw the child get sick so I knew where to walk to avoid it. This should have been rinsed off. I still gave the property a 4. The staff was great and the room was comfortable. The best thing about the property was the location. So close to McLane stadium you could walk if you chose. Very close to downtown and all things Magnolia."

Hilton Waco

10/10 Excellent

"Nice place to stay. Clean and conveniently located."

Adorable condo near Baylor/Magnolia Table/Silos

10/10 Excellent

"Very comfortable stay, clean and nicely decorated. We appreciated the snacks and variety of coffee. Also, great books to read. Would stay again!"

1700 South 2nd

10/10 Excellent

"It was a great stay can’t wait to go back."

The Duet- Just Steps from Baylor University and Minutes from The Magnolia Silos

10/10 Excellent

"The Duet was so comfortable. The beds, the air conditioning when it was 107 outside, and so close to Baylor for move-in day. I wish there was a toaster but honestly, that was the only thing! James was a terrific host! The spacious living room helped us inventory and re-pack all the college gear. Thank you for a pleasant stay!"
