The Juniper Room was charming and so confortable. Our host left wonderful insructions with a map and suggestions for local eats and sights. The common areas were well kept and the bed was comfortable. We saw several deer.

Best Mattress Ever!

Comfortable little room. We came for a Paul Thorn concert at the Brauntex. Perfect spot. Close to everything we needed/wanted. And, as you can see, Bed was the most comfortable of all the places we’ve stayed the last 9 years.

Quaint and cozy

When choosing a place to stay for an easy get away, I would highly recommend this place. We comfortably fit four girls in this space and had plenty of space to get ready and sleep. We even utilized the outdoor patio for a workout in the mornings. Check-in was super easy and the owner even greeted us as we left. I'm beyond grateful we found the perfect place to spend a fun New Year's Eve weekend in.

Great quiet suite for a getaway

Great place to stay for a night at Gruene Hall. My three girlfriend's and I were coming in from Austin for a Saturday night show in Gruene and didn't want to make the trip back late night. We opted for a more local spot rather than a hotel and we were very glad we did. It was great to have a patio to have a glass of wine and coffee and breakfast in the morning. The bed was amazingly comfortable. We didn't have time to explore the downtown New Braunfels area but next time :).

The Comal Inn is the perfect, safe, and in the perfect location for a girl's weekend in New Braunfels and Gruene! Yes, you definitely have to come back and explore downtown New Braunfels. There is so much to do and see and the Comal Inn is only 3 blocks from the Main Plaza downtown, an easy walk!! Thanks for your very kind review!

A relaxing getaway

Our family of 4 had a wonderful time during our 3 night stay in the Juniper room at the Comal Inn. The room was very well appointed and cozy. The bed was super comfortable and we slept wonderfully. The pullout couch was perfect for our two girls. We loved all of the refreshments provided in the refrigerator and the pastries. The patio was wonderful and private. The location is very peaceful, but still close to everything. We could have walked to Schlitterbahn. The room had plentiful information about the area and things to see and do. Brent and Julie live on the property and were so hospitable. Looking forward to my next visit!

My parents loved their stay here!

My parents stayed here when we had a houseful of family, so they could have a little space of their own away from the chaos. They loved everything about it, and I looked like a hero for finding it and booking it for them. We will house our people here again!

Great!

Location and neighborhood are very nice and close to lots of dining options & shops. The property was very nicely cared for - we wished the growing season was further along. The property owners were very friendly but also gave us privacy. Breakfast items were greatly appreciated. Room was very nice, clean and bed was super comfortable. We slept four in the room and it was a great option for a shorter stay if your out and about most of the time and don't need a lot of space.

And the water pressure was awesome... loved the stay. Cozy and great location. Would love to stay again. And soon...xoxo.

Hidden gem of the Comal!

Great location in the heart of downtown - walking distance to everything! Just walk a block down the road and jump in the river to float the horseshoe! Cozy secluded property with a huge porch outside to relax on after a day on the river!!!

Great place to stay

The room was very nice and clean with lots of space. Everything we needed was provided. The owners left breakfast/drinks for us and were great at communicating. The location was great, we were near quite a few restaurants and being across the street from the Comal was nice. I would definitely stay here again!

The Perfect Location

If you’re floating this river, this is the spot for you! The rooms were small but the space was used very efficiently. The outdoor area was very peaceful. You pretty much have a complementary breakfast at this location due to the yogurt, pastries, cereal, milk and juice made available to you by the owners/management. All in all, It was perfect for our needs and for our activities!

Thank you for reviewing the Comal Inn. Yes, the Juniper Room is our smallest of the 3 one-room cottages that we have and can be a little cozy accommodating 4 grown adults. We do have larger accommodations for 4+ guests. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay and your visit to NB. Hope to see you again soon! Julie & Brent Comal Inn

Great location

Before arriving we had check-in instructions which were very easy to follow. Once we arrived we were pleasantly surprised by the space as well as the goodies left for us! The next morning we partook in the delicious pastries and drank some yummy coffee. Since we were floating the Comal we were able to take the delicious fruit provided. The bed was very comfortable! It was such a great place that we have recommended to others if they are ever in the area and looking for a place to stay as well as us looking forward to making this a yearly event! Thank you!!
