Hotel from the tv show Fixer Upper the Hotel, went to the Magnolia Silos, they gave us flip flops, cookies, and water as part of the turn down when we got back from the Silos. Good at the hotel was great.

Stayed here to celebrate a birthday, I was looking forward to the rooftop experience but unfortunately it rained on Saturday with lightning and thunder so they kept it closed. We were able to walk out to take a few pictures. Which was nice, hopefully next time we can enjoy the rooftop.

Every inch of this property has been designed to give comfort to its guests. It has modern conveniences in old world charm. The staff truly seeks to welcome you home. Each room is spacious and unique. It was a joy for my wife and I to be a guest.

Great 1920's era feel. Very nice. Roof restaurant had great food and very nice view. Room was excellent, a little pricey for Waco, TX, but if they can keep it full, more power to them. We would stay there on occasion when in town.

Lovely hotel carefully renovated to stay true to character. It’s disappointing that they don’t have the Magnolia network on the tv, or at least let you see the hotel renovation show so you can remember all the neat details.
My room was on the back of the hotel and it could do with some soundproofing. We knew when the food deliveries and trash pick ups happened- all of which happen before the hour that that my family wanted to wake up.

It’s the Little Things
Amazing experience!
My wife and I celebrated our 17 anniversary this year and in passing she had mentioned that she’d really like to stay at 1928…I don’t regret the investment! The attention to detail was phenomenal! Everyone was great and made us feel so welcome and made our stay all the more enjoyable.

Fixed Up
Unashamedly we were in town for a Fixer Upper fix. Hotel 1928 was a must stay and it didn’t disappoint. Our Austin room was tastefully decorated, clean and spacious. We also dined at Bertie’s rooftop and had one of our more refined (and healthy) meals in Texas so far. Walkable to Silos and also had free street parking available.

I thought the Gaines did a great job of making this a beautiful venue. Currently, however, it is not being maintained in an impressive way. Dust was obvious in the lobby, the employees were not well trained, and dress was sloppy. The best service we encountered was in the valet parking and they are not part of the hotel management.

The Hotel 1928 was a beautiful hotel and very nice staff, but the location and area around the hotel was not very good and not sure if it was very safe area at night.
We were going to walk to the Magnolia Market from the hotel, but it did not seem safe. There were security bars on most buildings and establishments around the hotel.

The restaurant staff and mngmnt were not on their game. The bartender Sam was amazing he tried to fux what he could. But at $400. A night you would think yiucould get something other than instant coffee withoit having to pay more .
