Best Western Inn of Brenham

This hotel is conveniently located to many activities and points of interest in the Brenham area. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful, rooms are well maintained and immaculately clean and the complimentary breakfast is enough to make a cowboy weep! When booking, I would recommend asking for a room on the back of the building as the front can be a bit noisy with highway sounds. Nice pool, although we were there a little too early in the season to take advantage of it. less

I stayed at the Best Western Inn of Brenham, TX 1 night on March 14, 2019 on a quick trip to attend annual Plant Sale at the Round Top Herbal Forum. This hotel is conveniently located at see things around the Brenham area, including Festival Hill in Round Top. The hotel building itself is pretty old and was built in the old "motel" style with hotel rooms opening to the outside. The building is well maintained with a nice pool on the back side. Parking is located on both front side & back side of the building. The hotel has two stories and there is no elevator, so you should request a ground-level room is you have difficulty climbing stairs or carrying your luggage up & down stairs. Also be aware that the hotel is located on the side of Hwy 290, so I highly recommend that you request a room on the back side of the hotel. Rooms on the front side, which faces the highway, have loud traffic noise all night long due to the constant truck traffic. Odd numbered rooms are located on the highway side; even numbered rooms are on the back side. Offsetting those two negatives, the hotel rooms themselves are very large, with remodeled bathrooms, very comfortable beds, mini fridge & microwave. The rooms were exceptionally clean. Hotel and rooms have free high-speed WIFI that was quite reliable during my short visit. This hotel also has a very good free full breakfast buffet that opens at 5:30AM. The buffet had a nice assortment of food, including chafing dishes with large fluffy biscuits, sausage patties, gravy, cheese omelets and pancakes, plus oatmeal, cold cereal, bagels and toast, juice, milk, hot tea and very good regular & decaf coffee in medium roast & medium dark roast. The front desk & buffet staff were friendly & helpful. Overall I would recommend this hotel with the caveat of getting a room on back side of the hotel & on the ground floor if you have any mobility issues. less

The hotel structure and room were good. I was on the backside of hotel so I didn’t notice any highway noise that others have mentioned. The room was in good order other than a broken entry handle. I had to make very sure that the lock was activated because the handle tended to hang limply and was sketchy about latching. Bed was comfortable, heater/air conditioner was not loud and functioned well. Part of the unfortunate aspect is that the hotel is inhabited by a lot of workers. Now I don’t have a problem with workers at all but it’s a little unnerving to come back to the hotel, alone, in the night and find half a dozen young men sitting on the tailgate of a pickup truck, blaring music with a couple of cases of beer in front of them. Also unfortunate was that there were work men in the breezeway which accessed my room, sanding a wooden door. There was sawdust everywhere on the stairs and hand rails which ended up on my luggage. The workers were nice and so were the workers that I happened to encounter. I hung the do not disturb sign out the first day but after that, the room was never vacuumed (check in 2-21-19, check out 2-24-19). The bath tub was never cleaned. The ice bucket was never emptied of melted water. The doors of the rooms open to the outdoors and while in the room one night, I realized that is left my phone charger in my vehicle. So I went and got it. When I got back to the room, the key card would not open the door although it had functioned just hours before. I called the front desk on the night of Saturday, February 23rd, 2019. A woman answered the phone and I told her the situation. I was in shorts and a t-shirt in windy temps of around 40-50 degrees. She did not apologize for the inconvenience and just said “So you want me to bring you a key?” I said “Yes, please”. Without another word, she just hung up. When she showed up, she did not greet me in any way, just took my key from my hand and tried it. It didn’t work, she tried the one she had brought and it worked. She handed it to me and turned to leave... I was left with the impression that it was much more of an inconvenience for her than she felt it was for me. So next morning, I head to the front counter to check out (as scheduled) and there were three people there talking to each other. One broke off his part of the conversation and checked me out. Overall, I was very disappointed in the dismal attitude of the employees there and the lack of “giving a darn” about the kind of service they are providing. While the hotel may be all right for a one nighter, I will not be staying there again. Too many good hotels within nearly walking distance of this one to settle for this kind of stay. less

The Best Western Inn in Brenham TX was a great experience for me. When you walk into the room They where clean with a fresh smell. The bed where very comfortable and I slept like a baby. The breakfast was fresh and delicious. I've already told my friends about my experience. I recommend the best Western inn in Brenham TX. less

I truly enjoyed my stay at the Best Western last month. The room was immaculate and the bed was so comfortable, it was almost impossible to get out of. I think my favorite part was the breakfast. I loved the freshness & variety. Great front desk customer service as well. I'm looking forward to my next visit this month. Curtis Von less
