We have stayed at the Blanco County Inn many times over the past 10 years or so since Ralph & Deborah took it over (it used to be the old Mobley Motel before then). Our most recent stay was in April 2013. Ralph and Deborah have done an amazing job of renovating this place, and are the friendliest hosts ever!... More

The room was very clean and comfortable. The owners are friendly and helpful. The location was convenient. The social atmosphere around the fire pit was a nice touch. I would definitely stay here again.

This is our second stay here. We will stay here every single time we are in the area. Ralph and Debra (the owners) are wonderful. There is a place for a fire in the evenings and they sit out with the guests and visit. If you have a need or a request, they are ready and willing to help. The... More

Ralph & Debra provide a warm, welcoming setting to any guest staying at the Blanco County Inn. The rooms are very clean, the service cannot be beat, and the setting is very relaxing with a landscaped lawn, fire pit, Adirondack style chairs, etc. They provided accommodations for many of our guests recently for our daughter's wedding. They were most helpful... More

This is an older property which has been well maintained. Interior remodeling has been done and most all the amenities you need are there, hair dryer, fridge , coffee maker, and a digital tv in our room. They are pet friendly and do have one smoking room, which did NOT stink of cigarette smoke. I'd rate it higher but as... More

This is an old-style motel that Ralph and Deborah have fixed up for those passin' thru. The rooms are modest but nicely furnished. The doors open to the parking lot. I enjoy the character of the place: nice to sit outside and enjoy a drink by the fire pit, or sip wine on the deck. The walls are kinda thin,... More

We stayed here on our bicycle trip across the US. All the good things that people have said about this place are absolutely true. Ralph and Debra are such friendly helpful hosts. Our room was delightful -- clean, well decorated, very home-like. In the evening Ralph likes to sit out on the front lawn and visit with his guests --... More

An older hotel completely rennovated for comfort. Rooms vary. We stayed in a large room with sofa sitting area, ample bath, and sink/bar. Fridge & microwave, some kitchenware items. Clean tile floors. Large grounds for outdoor sitting, barbecuing etc. Run/owned by very friendly and helpful retired couple. Only complaint is location: on the highway leaving town, too far to walk... More

My friend and I stayed at Ralph and Debbie's Inn for 4 nights. It was our first stay there. It will now be the only place I stay while riding in the Hill Country if I am anywhere near Blanco. The rooms were fine. Well kept, comfortable beds, AC worked, heater in the room, extra towels and blankets, flat screen... More

We were bicycling from San Antonio to Blanco. We arrived in Blanco only to find out that our accomodations had fallen through.All area hotels were full including Ralph & Deb's Inn. Although we didn't experience a room, we did experience their kindness and generousity. We sat around a fire pit and exchanged conversation and drinks. As the night ended we... More

Official Description (provided by the hotel):
We let our customers decide whether they want to do nothing, or savor all the things Blanco & the Texas Hill Country have to offer. With that said we are an 80 year old motel, with rooms that have been remodeled over the last few years. All this to give our customers, and future friends, a charming "Hill Country" Experience! Being (we believe the motel was built in1932) we are 80 years old; we are the oldest lodging in Blanco County. Also, we are one of the oldest lodging establishments in the hill country. It was founded by Mary Lester as the Lester Courts when the State & Federal government was developing our state park system and when Route Number 66 was developed. No, not US Route 66, we think it was a state highway before it became US 281. So along with the road and the park here Mrs. Lester built the Lester courts. Wanting to slow down the frenzied pace of corporate life, my wife and I jumped at the chance to live in the hill country, and run a quaint little inn. As our retirement project we have had fun restoring the motel to a quaint "Boutique Motel" and meet people and new friends from all over the world. Ask us about some fresh eggs or soon our "Blanco County Honey!" ... more   less
