Hotel Overview

Water and small-town Texas character meet in Luling, Texas, where Best Western Plus Longhorn Inn & Suites provides an easy base for time on the river. The Zedler Mill Paddling Trail draws kayakers and canoeists to the San Marcos River, while nearby Palmetto State Park trades open prairie for lush, almost tropical lowlands lined with hiking trails, birding opportunities, and quiet fishing spots.

Just off Interstate 10, the hotel keeps the wider region within reach, with Luling Municipal Golf Course a short drive away for those looking to work on their swing. Quiet, comfortable rooms suit both business and leisure travelers, a complimentary full hot breakfast starts the day, and friendly local hospitality is part of every stay.

Luling proudly embraces its heritage, from the painted pumpjacks scattered throughout town to the smoked brisket that draws barbecue lovers off the highway. After a day on the water, unwind with a relaxing evening in a town that rewards travelers who take the time to slow down and explore.
