Troy
Start with love how patriotic this hotel was and then we got the 1776 theme room so even better with a balcony view of the river which you can walk to and take cool dip in then warm up in the hot tub. Loved the social and great breakfast
William Reed
Great breakfast and happy hour.
David
This place is absolutely perfect! The breakfasts are so good. The staff are friendly and helpful. The location is perfect - close to everything, but still feels private. The hotel and rooms are the perfect mix of Texas Hill Country and Southern Living charm. We’ll be back.
Karla Brandt
Gruene River Hotel + Retreat is a FANTASTIC place for the complete \"hotel experience.\" Each room is individually decorated, and it's a joy to make little discoveries in the decor that contribute to the overall theme. We've stayed in the 1776 Room, The Vineyard and Cozy Cabin, and all were fantastic. The breakfast is first rate, they serve free beer and wine for happy hour, and the property is just beautiful, with its limestone and multi-level deck where you can watch the river flow and see deer before breakfast. Staff is all very nice too - super-helpful - and it's so much fun to talk with other guests. We stayed over my birthday and leading up to the Fourth of July, and it was so nice to have such a relaxing stay among friendly folks. And of course the restaurants, bars and shopping in Gruene are always fantastic, when you do leave the hotel.
Sarah
Great stay!
Charles
The property was beautiful and the room (shady lady) was incredible. Can’t wait to get back!
Fernanda
Amazing staff. Amazing breakfast. We will definitely go back.
Steven
As busy as Gruene can be (and was this weekend), the property feels like you’re in a totally different world. The complimentary breakfast was fantastic and the service was 5 Star.
Celeste
AMAZING STAY!
Sally
Our room was lovely with a king bed, leather chairs, a huge bathroom (with red slipper tub) and a private balcony with river views. The breakfast was chef prepared and delicious! There were always snacks, cookies and water out for guests. Deer were all over the property and it is right in the center of Gruene so it’s easy to walk to all the sights and not worry about parking. Highly recommend!
brandon
We had a perfect stay at Gruene River Hotel & Retreat. Everything was extremely clean, the staff was wonderful, and the entire property felt relaxing and well cared for. The homemade breakfast each morning was absolutely delicious, and we loved visiting and talking with the staff — everyone was so friendly and welcoming. The additional snacks and drinks offered throughout the day really made the experience feel extra special. The grounds are beautiful, and we especially enjoyed spending time by the riverside. We would definitely stay here again!

Norman
What a great place! We were only able to spend one night but loved our stay. We were greeted cheerfully and had a wonderful room (the 1776 room). We felt at home here. Room isn’t overly large but the bathroom is and the room also has a balcony. Breakfast is included and is delicious and fresh.

Ideal B&B!
Absolutely LOVE the Gruene River Hotel & Retreat! So many great things about it, I don't know where to start -- location, service, friendliness, free breakfast, added touches that most hotels do not do. I will be staying here every time I go to New Braunfels!
Jennifer
Love this place!
Green River Hotel & Retreat was a really great place to stay. It was beautiful, clean, quiet, and the service was top shelf. This is our new destination point for trips to the Green/New Braunfels area. Highly recommend it.

Diane
Beautiful property
Beautiful property and rooms. Breakfast was wonderful. Only suggestion in our particular room is to change mattress. Felt like we both were laying in a hole.
Jennifer
I’ve seen in many places in Gruene. We really liked this one. Our room was nice and clean, large and our bed was very comfortable. We enjoyed the quietness of the hotel, but being close/within walking distance to everything we wanted to do.
CHRISTOPHER
Incredible!
Happened upon the Gruene River Hotel & Retreat on Hotels.com. What a find! Can’t say enough about the staff, accommodations, location, the list goes on and on. Newly renovated back porch is incredible. View off the back of the building is incredible. Wildlife roaming around the property is amazing. Homemade free breakfast was terrific. Each room has a unique layout and motif. The personal attention is the best I’ve ever seen and I’ve stayed at hotels extensively in my life. There aren’t enough stars to give this place what it deserves! We will absolutely be back, likely with family and friends in tow!
Angela
Adorable bed & breakfast on the river with an awesome outside view from the back of the property. Would definitely stay again!

Cindy
Wonderful stay
This is a lovely and very elegant but comfortable hotel. Gorgeous outdoor patios and it’s right on the river. (Many steps to the riverfront, but they even have a couple of chairs in the river to watch all the people tubing the river.) Our room was spacious and we had a patio overlooking the hot tub. Easy walk to shopping. Breakfast was delicious, the evening wine and beer was enjoyable and overall it was a most wonderful place to stay. Would definitely stay here again if in Gruene.

Perfect Honeymoon Stay
I never sleep, ever, but had no issues getting a good nights rest with their cozy beds and pillows. The views were stunning, fireplace in the room was amazing. Breakfast in the mornings was delicious! Loved being able to walk everywhere in Gruene. There is free Pacman! We loved getting to know the kind staff members. Everything was just perfect and we cant wait to return!

Absolutely beautiful property located on the river and steps away from Gruene Hall. Our room was very comfortable and had everything we needed. We enjoyed the complimentary late afternoon beer, wine, and snacks along with the morning breakfast which was outstanding. Great game room with large screen tv, shuffle board and pool table. Overall quiet property with so many amenities, something for everyone! Looking forward to our next visit!

Joseph
The property at Gruene River Hotel and Retreat was amazing. We stayed in “The Perfect Swing” room and it was gorgeous. The bed was so comfortable, the room was very clean and we had a nice little private balcony. If you want to float the river, they have river access down a beautiful path behind the property.
The staff was so friendly. The breakfast was fresh and delicious. Make this your next romantic getaway when you visit Gruene. We loved it and can’t wait to go back.

Fred
Beautiful facility ruined by loud guests. We were awoken by a woman screaming, not once, but three times at midnight outside in the pool area. Management seemed to condone this behavior as she was celebrating her birthday. There are several nearby bars and restaurants available for such events.
Management needs to decide if they cater to couples wanting to get away for a quiet romantic trip or an event center for groups and reunions.

Great stay. The daily breakfast is a wonderful treat and delicious. It was great to stay in Gruene and not fe rushed to see everything in one day. The river access is a plus.
Steve
Great time in Gruene
Neat hotel right in Gruene. The room was big and comfortable. Nice deck, although it was too hot while we were there to enjoy it. The people were great. Good complementary wine in the afternoon. Great location right in Gruene - walkable to Gruene hall and all the dining and shopping around there.
Terri
River Access and Hot Tub
This is a really pretty property! The service was excellent. Just so you know there is quite a steep drop down to the river--125 stone steps--we thought it would be closer to the hotel. You can sit outside on their patio and look down at the river. Also the photo of the pool is a little deceiving in the photos--it is a hot tub which does no good on a 100 degree day! I think they should just turn it into a soaking pool for hot weather--we sure could have used it to cool off!
Christopher
Relaxing Retreat for Wedding Anniversary.
Quaint little spot on the river. Loved our room with a balcony over looking the river. Staff was very friendly. Breakfast was delicious, baked goods all day, lovely wine at Happy Hour. We would recommend it to anyone wanting a quiet spot to unwind.
NORA
Our stay was amazing. Excellent location and great service!!! Special shut out to Kelly for going out of her way to make our stay special!!

Such a pleasant stay. From the friendly check-in, to the indoor and outdoor sitting areas, to the delicious breakfast, complimentary evening wine, to the gorgeous views to check-out … this place was amazing and very accommodating.
Keith

Kyle

Deanna K
Great location in the Hill Country. Walking distance to Gruene. Nice adult only retreat. Breakfast was amazing.
Ralph
Everything was great from being received to accommodation's cleanliness and comfort. Fantastic view and proximity to everything we wanted to do was fantastic. The only thing I would have to say is that the cook should mix up the breakfast menu a bit. Frittatas we’re super tasty but not everyday. Otherwise a fantastic experience and will be booking our next stay soon.
Dawn
Beautiful Hotel
My husband and I were lucky enough to check in early, we stayed one night in the Vinyard room. Our room was perfect, plenty of room with large bathroom. The views out back overlooking the river are gorgeous with lots of sitting areas to watch the sunset.
Plenty of amenities with hot tub, game room and library. The full breakfast was awesome! The hotel is within walking distance to plenty of restaurants, shops, Gruene hall and Gruene Grove which had good music playing at both venues. The staff were all very friendly. Wished we could have stayed longer. We would definately stay again.

The room was clean and sufficiently supplied. The service was friendly. It is a very informal place. We are accustomed to that in Texas.
The site is great. Location is great; on the edge of the historic district, thankfully not in the middle of it.
Breakfast was awesome! The food was great. The service and set up made it feel very personally tailored. Sorry- no photos.
