Top Downtown San Marcos Hotel Reviews

Hacienda del Rio

10/10 Excellent

"great location"

Embassy Suites by Hilton San Marcos Hotel Conference Center

10/10 Excellent

"9/26/2026 - The hotel stay overall was great! The young blonde hair girl with glasses was very nice and accommodating. We need more people like her in this world. 9/27/2026 - Bar - The only thing that was a minus is some of the bar staff were very rude. One lady with mid length black hair was very rude and and made it seem like we were a bother to her. The other blonde hair girl was kind of nice but a little sarcastic. The food was good up until a roach came crawling across the table. I got the bartenders attention and she just smashed it with a napkin. I regret eating there after that. The beer was warm, not cold at all. Room - the room was clean, roomy and the beds were comfy."
