About this property

Carriage Inn Medina Suite · Ground Floor Downtown

The Medina Suite is on the ground floor of the Carriage Inn, a century-old house in the middle of Bandera. Main Street, the shops and the dance halls are a short walk, and the 11th Street Cowboy Bar is right across the alley. The Medina River and Bandera City Park are close by, and Hill Country State Natural Area is about ten minutes away.



Inside, cowboy-era antiques sit alongside the comforts you want: air conditioning and heat, Wi-Fi, satellite TV in the larger bedroom, and a full kitchen with an oven and stove, a fridge, a microwave, a toaster and a coffee maker. There are two bedrooms with a king and a queen, and a full bathroom with a tub and shower. Linens, a hair dryer and an ironing board are provided. A private exit opens right onto the backyard.



The backyard is shared with the inn's other guests, with a charcoal barbecue pit, a large outdoor fireplace, a fire pit, string lights and plenty of tables and chairs. Out front, the shaded porch has Adirondack chairs, a porch swing and a view of the old Wild West carriage the inn is named for. Covered parking for the inn rooms is first come, first served, with street parking nearby.



Early check-in may be available on request. Every stay includes the Texas Hill Country Travel App, a local guide for exploring the area.



WHY WE LIKE IT

When people call about bringing the dog to town, this is the suite we usually recommend. It is a large room with its own private exit straight out to the backyard, so morning walks are easy. And you are in town: Main Street is a short stroll from the door.

SLEEPING

Bedroom 1: king bed

Bedroom 2: queen bed

One full bathroom with tub and shower



GOOD TO KNOW

The Carriage Inn sits directly behind the 11th Street Cowboy Bar, so live music can carry late into the night.

Your suite is entirely private; only the backyard and fire pit are shared with other inn guests.

The primary renter must be 18 or older.

One small, well-behaved dog is welcome; any pet fee is shown when you book.

The Carriage Inn has five suites and a separate cottage, so a bigger group can book more than one, or the whole inn for up to 25.

Check-in is 3 PM and check-out is 11 AM.

We enjoyed our stay! Loved sipping coffee in the morning on the front porch. The bed was comfortable and the property was clean. We stayed in the Medina 1 suite. It was a two bedroom one bath with a kitchen/dining room on the ground floor. This is an older property and if you enjoy staying at a place that is like being at grandma’s house, this is the place for you! It is conveniently located within walking distance to downtown shops and restaurants!

It was ok, bed was great shower tiny, and we thought we were getting downstairs room. With luggage snd knee problems kinda ruined it for me. Walking distance made it great thou especially if dancing at 11th Street.I thought way too expensive but appears everything is these days. Unfortunately.
