The Holland Hotel

The history behind the hotel and the beauty in keeping the historical features intact are what drew me to this property. The town is small so parking wasn’t a problem. Coffee & pastries were promised for breakfast however after getting up early to get some I was told they were out. This was at 6:30am. I asked if they would be getting anymore and was told no.

We enjoyed our stay at the very charming Holland Hotel in Alpine, Texas. The location is perfect for walking to restaurants and enjoying the beautiful days there.

The room did not have a table and chair to work on. Only a couch. Without a chair, it was difficult to watch TV, eat, or work. Reportedly, only one room had a table and a chair. For this money charged, this is outrageous. The bar was never open, no breakfast, and at night, there was a terrible ringing noise in the lobby. Which is why no one was around. The air conditioner fan would keep you awake, and better just turn it off. This is an old hotel that needs a major renovation or shut down.

They inform you that the restaurant was closed due to renovations or that the bar was not open. There were no amenities.

Staff was friendly and accommodating. Room was dirty, bed had several broken springs, property needs work. Staff was friendly and provided options and solutions.

The bathtub was filthy. I understand that it is an old hotel with old charm. That is why it picked. However, though much of the filth of the tub was due to age, age is not an adequate excuse for the condition of the tub. I’ll post pictures if possible so you can judge.

Charming period hotel beautifully maintained. Beautiful lobby. Quaint, comfortable room. Nice downtown location within walking distance of shops and restaurants

The staff was welcoming and the hotel was clean. It is very old but that is part of the charm. We stayed up in the studio and you do need to carry your bags up a couple flights of stairs but the room is great.
