Top Blanco Shoals Natural Area Hotel Reviews

LivAway Suites Austin San Marcos

10/10 Excellent

"Clean, fresh and convinient location"

Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Austin San Marcos

8/10 Good

"Breakfast need more options."

Hilton Garden Inn San Marcos

10/10 Excellent

"The pool was green, right in the middle of Summer. We went for orientation to Texas State. It would have been nice to swim after a hot day of walking. Big campus. They offered to compensate for a free breakfast, which at those prices should have been free anyway. All hotels have free breakfast now days. Even if it’s just muffins and coffee. Not everything in life is perfect unless you pay a price."
