The Best Hotels and B&Bs to Book Near Fredericksburg's Wineries, Texas
Once a closely guarded Texan secret, Fredericksburg’s wineries have evolved into a destination unlike any other in the United States.
The people of Texas are a particular bunch, but Fredericksburg has been popular with them for years, thanks to its legendary shopping and bountiful peach crops. With a small-town feel, but the restaurants, shops and attractions of a much larger location, you won’t be short of things to do when you visit. Accommodation is plentiful, too – here are our favorite hotels and B&Bs near Fredericksburg’s wineries, all bookable on Culture Trip.
The Lodge Above Town Creek
Independent Hotel
Known for its laid-back welcome and historic, farmhouse-chic atmosphere, this upmarket, country-casual lodge is a block from the Main Street shopping district and a three-minute walk from the National Museum of the Pacific War. The suites are understated yet luxurious, using natural, locally sourced materials for high-end finishing touches. There’s a large, romantic outdoor fireplace overlooking Town Creek, daily breakfast baskets delivered right to your door and a beautiful fountain pool outside for decompressing.
Settlers Crossing
Hotel, Guesthouse
Set on 35 acres (14ha) of lush Texan countryside is this friendly and longstanding guesthouse. Rustic Americana is effortlessly balanced with elegant chic, with several different houses and lodges – from 19th-century cottages to frontier-esque log cabins – providing different perspectives on the unique character of the area. Continental breakfast and parking are complimentary, while other amenities include a swimmin’ hole – pronounced without a g – and a barbecue.

Close to Luckenbach, Bankersmith, the Old Tunnel bat colony and only 10mi (16km) from downtown Fredericksburg, this picturesque B&B is set among lush pastures and glistening ponds. Its working ranch features a small herd of Belted Galloways, Miniature Hereford Cattle, several breeds of Mediterranean Miniature Donkeys, mules, ducks and two stocked ponds on 50 acres (20ha) of Texas countryside – and the standard of accommodation in all cottages is Texas-rustic meets luxury.
Inn on Barons Creek
Bed and Breakfast, Inn
In the heart of Texas Hill Country, this all-suite creekside hotel is a five-minute walk from the National Museum of the Pacific War and the shops and restaurants of Fredericksburg Main Street. The seven comfortable suites are traditionally furnished, with muted colors and elegant finishes, and there’s also a heated outdoor pool, a fitness center and a spa.

A fantastic choice for a contemporary base from which to explore the wineries.

Rarumpelpunzeldornaschenwittchen
Bed and Breakfast, Inn
Try saying their name after visiting a few wineries: Rarumpelpunzeldornaschenwittchen. A self-declared “enchanted B&B with a terrible name”, it won’t surprise you to know that there is a slightly Germanic theme here. Two charming wooden cottages inspired by the Grimm fairytales are situated in a beautiful garden – one called Rapunzel and the other Rumpelstilzchen. Close to many wineries and the Pedernales River, this adorable accommodation has loft bedrooms, kitchenettes and living areas – and breakfast is served in-room.
