I'm not sure what the problem with the other reviews are. If you're going to stay at a historical hotel be prepared to shell out some cash, and secondly "IT'S A HISTORIC HOTEL" The rooms are not modern, they are historic. Ours did not have a TV which is exactly what we were looking for in getting away. If you... More

We came here last week for one night with friends and we were enchanted with this sweet little hotel, we had a room in the courtyard with it's own fire place with logs outside our room which was large with a very comfotable kingsize bed and large stone shower. We had dinner in their restaurant and our dnner was really... More

Gage is a stunning hotel in middle of nowhere. Beautiful rooms, courtyard area and pool all tastefully decorated. Amost looks out of place in middle of desert! Rooms very comfortable, beautiful towels and robes in bathroom. As others have mentioned there is not much sound insulation between rooms. We stayed in courtyard rooms of main hotel. A nearby building is... More

We spent 4 nights at the Gage, and while the 'Portales' rooms surrounding a courtyard were quaint and beautiful, we got put into the 'historic' Gage hotel on the fourth, and that was just the worst. The lady on the phone assured us that we would have 2 rooms for the family with 'a bathroom down the hall'. We asked... More

Stopped on the way to our ski destination. Room was very nice--especially liked the walk-in roomy shower. Had drinks at the White Buffalo and dinner at the 12 Gage--nothing short of spectacular. Local wine was fantastic, the meal was perfectly timed and prepared with excellence, and the service was superb. More

I've stayed at the Gage Hotel twice before, and found it to be a quaint oasis in the middle of nowhere. I recently accessed their site to make a one-night reservation for a Thursday night, only to find a "Holiday Special" king room for $97. Thinking they were affected by the economy and were selling their great rooms for reasonable... More

On their reservation site we found $98 rooms. Much to our surprise it was in the newly acquired Captain Shepard's Inn. The Gage just bought the Inn two weeks prior. The front desk clerk just told us the room was in the "two story white building in the back." That was it. That's all she told us. We arrived to... More

We found this place totally randomly after a long drive through Big Bend and the hotel was nothing short of spectacular, especially with the Christmas decorations on. The lobby is stunning, with its gigantic fireplace surrounded by stuffed animals and the rooms are tastefully decorated and cozy. The whole place is reminiscent of a not-so-old era where cowboys reigned and... More

For quite a few years my family has spent Thanksgiving in Big Bend Country. We usually spend 5+ days camping and hiking in Big Bend National Park (generally great weather at that time of year) and then splurge with a rest at the Gage Hotel before the 600 mile drive back home (south of Houston). I wrote what I consider... More
