“Charming and historic but poorly maintained”

Reviewed 13 June 2013 NEW

The Hotel Blessing is historic and charming and worth a stay at $35/ night for the feeling of early 20th century Texas. Rooms are small, spare, and most share a bathroom. Ours had a small refrigerator, a microwave, a gas heater, and a window AC. Beds are ok and the bathrooms are old, of course, and reasonably clean. Reports from... More

“The idea, not the food”

Reviewed 4 June 2013

Second visit in a year, second disappointment. It seems to my wife and me that we love the idea of this venerable old place...but the food is not much to write home about. On our latest visit, the meats were cold and tasteless, and even the vegetables were bland and uninspired. You have to want to come here if you're... More

I am sorry to hear that your experience with the Coffee shop was not very enjoyable I hope that you have a great day and will come back on another day when our menu is different. Thanks again W Hunt mgr. More

I had the pleasure of driving through Blessing last week with my grandmother, and two aunts. We are from Houston and were headed to Rockport, when my aunt heard about the Blessing hotel through a co-worker of hers, and we decided to take a lunch detour to try it out. I'm 26 years old so I walked in not expecting... More

They offered turkey and dressing, fried chicken, ham, green beans, black-eyed peas, squash, gravy, mashed potatoes and much more.... More

“a hidden Texas gem”

Reviewed 7 July 2012

We did not spend the night here, but did have lunch today at Hotel Blessing. I enthusiastically recommend their buffet lunch for anyone seeking a taste of 1906 Texas history. As we walked through the front door, we saw a hotel lobby that looked as if frozen in time since the early 1900’s. A few modern gadgets have been added... More

“For the price it isnt too bad.”

Reviewed 20 June 2012

It is an antique hotel, with a ton of character. The front desk lady is very helpful. The rooms seem clean, but as I said it is very old. I think because of the price it is rented out by the week to workers and people of low income, because I did not see another "guest" as we were in... More
