Top East Riverside Hotel Reviews

EVEN Hotel Waco - University Area by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Clean and quiet room, very spacious. Staff was friendly and helpful."

Hotel 1928

10/10 Excellent

"We planned our stay at this hotel because we are huge fans of Chip and Joanna Gaines. This hotel was super clean and very nice, my only gripe would be that the did not have the magnolia network available of their TV's in the room. I would think because this is their hotel, they would have this available. But otherwise, the food in both restaurants at he hotel was delicious."

Moon River Ranch

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect for a quick getaway for us. Even in the 100 degree weather we stayed cool in the pool, under the trees and in the saloon where chef prepared food was available and plentiful. The bonus concert was great and we made some local friends. Step out of the ordinary and get acquainted with the land. See exotic animals you won't see anywhere else. Go have fun, recharge and plan your next trip to Moon River Ranch."

Quality Inn & Suites Waco North

8/10 Good

"The room was clean but had a residue film on the whole floor that was sticky and itchy like cleaner left behind, the room smelled kind of funky, and the the dressers drawer kept opening on its own I assume from building shifts, but it was obnoxiously in the way of getting into and out of bed. Had to put a book under the dresser to stop it from happening. We were disappointed when we went to enjoy the provided breakfast only to find the pancakes were in the same warmer as the eggs and bacon which completely contaminated the eggs and bacon with gluten- thereby making it unsafe for its to eat anything they had available since we are celiacs. But other than these things it was just fine."
