Marfa is a remarkable city, and the Paisano is a remarkable hotel in this cute desert town. The Paisano hotel is truly an oasis of civilisation in the middle of the desert. I arrived here after I had spent a couple of nights in Big Bend NP and in Terlingua. As beautiful as the location of the Chisos Mountain Lodge... more

The hotel is built in the original spanish style. Everything is of good and mostly high quality, you feel at home there, despite the size of the large house and the number of tourists there. Nice: the man at the front desk who was helpful and mostly friendly but a little overworked. Interior is VERY tasteful and nice to look... more

I stayed at Hotel Paisano over the Christmas holiday traveled with my dog. We stayed in the James Dean room at the top of the stairs (see photo). Overall, I would stay at this hotel again. The staff was very helpful and friendly, the room was comfortable, though I found the TV to be a little small for the distance... more

As noted by a previous reviewer, the Paisano has a lovely courtyard. The lobby was pleasant as was a room off the lobby with a fireplace. There was ice cold lemonade when we arrived and coffee in the morning. The staff was helpful and friendly. We had a room with two queen beds and two small bathrooms -- I would... more

The El Paisano is a charming small hotel in the middle of downtown Marfa, Texas. Keep in mind that Marfa has 2,000 or so residents! The hotel has a lovely courtyard with a fountain and tables outside to enjoy the nice weather. The desk was well manned with very helpful people. There is no elevator but there is help if... more

A four day trip to the Marfa Fort Davis area of Texas. Trying something a little different , we booked our stay here. The small courtyards off our room was the highlight. Our room, was one of the smallest I can ever remember. Our girls got the big suite and it was very spacious. A tour of the halls gives... more

You can feel the history in this rennovated hotel from the 1930's. I was there on a working trip but plan a return for a pleasure trip! The staff was very friendly and helpful. Check in was easy and the lobby is so beautiful! The hotel exudes a comfortable and romantic feeling. There was a beautiful sitting room with a... more

As many of the previous reviewers have said, this is a beautiful old hotel with a lot of history. The courtyard and lobby areas are amazing, but the rooms themselves are a bit bland. Ours was small, but comfortable. There was a flat screen TV with satellite service, but it was very small, 13' at the most. The bath did... more
