"Great experience for a last minute trip. Decent breakfast provided, but get there early as the food and condiments are sketchy."

The Hotel Henry

"Decided at the last minute to take a quick trip to the Texas Hill Country and opted for Blanco rather than the busier and more expensive Fredericksburg. The Hotel Henry looked good so we decided to try it out. It was a good choice. The room was spacious (king room with the separate sitting room) and immaculately clean. The bed was very high (be aware if you have mobility issues) but extremely comfortable, and the hotel was quiet despite being less than a block from Hwy 281. The employees were friendly and helpful. The vibe is laid back… almost AirBnB-ish. No one was at the front desk when we got there but there was a note with my name on it on the counter with the room key (an actual key… not a key card). When we saw the front desk clerk later she asked if we’d had any trouble or needed anything. Nope… everything was good! There is a small menu for food, including breakfast, but we didn’t eat there so I cannot comment on that. If we need a hotel in Blanco again, I’d be happy to stay here again. Happy with our visit."

Walden Retreats Hill Country ★★★★

"We spent a few nights here in April 2024. We usually take 10 days and go to Europe in April but this year we had to stay close to home. I found this last minute and it was a nice time. Staff is very friendly. We were the only people on the resort one night but even the nights when there were other people it was peaceful. We got one of the tents with the outdoor tub. It was great sitting in it and looking at the stars. The clawfoot tub was luxury. My husband loved cooking with their cast iron. We walked down to the river. We brought all of our food with us and never left once we got there. It was exactly what we needed. No, it wasn't a fancy vacation, but it was calm, lowkey and relaxing. We would not hesitate coming back in the spring or winter. I am not sure I would want to be there in the heat of Texas summer even with the mini splits. Thank you, Walden owners and staff, for a respite from our daily lives."
