Top Downtown Abilene Hotel Reviews

Abilene Whitten Inn

8/10 Good

"Breakfast was very good. The rooms were nice and it was very quiet. It's an older facility, so the outside appearance is dated. Inside, it's kind of relaxing."

MCM Elegante Suites Abilene

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay was brief with a very early morning check out so we didn't use many of the amenities. We did thoroughly enjoy our room and dealing with the friendly, helpful staff. We ate our to go supper at a real table and watched football and baseball games simultaneously on the two TV's. In today's age of electronics that need recharging, there were plenty of plugs with which to charge them. The beds were scrumptious and sleep came easy and was deep and restful. I had phoned the front desk with a specific clarification about check in. When we checked in, the lady at the desk recognized me as the person she had spoken to on the phone. She also assured me that someone was on duty at the desk 24 hours per day so that our 5:30 am checkout would be quick and seamless. And it was. While entering and exiting we shared the covered drive with the shuttle. The shuttle driver helped with our luggage both times. All in all this visit just reaffirmed my thought of taking a weekend stay to relax and enjoy the amenities at a later date."

Motel 6 Abilene, TX

10/10 Excellent

"The best decent motel around Abikene so far. Has been clean and quiet, no bugs like most others around her. Also a nice area too. Me and my hubby have stayed twice so far for his work and have no complaints. Only thing is showers could be a bit bigger but definitely not much of a problem as far as showering goes. :)"
