10/10 Excellent

"I always stay at this property, it’s always clean and a very convenient location for Waco’s attractions."

Cambria Hotel Waco Univ Riverfront

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay at Cambria was the best we’ve had in Waco in the past 2 years of visiting my daughter at school. The hotel is in excellent condition, extremely comfortable and accommodating. The staff is very knowledgeable, friendly, and go out of their way to make you feel welcome. The waiter at breakfast, I cannot remember his name, was such a joy to be around, with a special way to interact with everyone present. He definitely deserves a shoutout because he went out of his way to gives us such a pleasant morning. I will definitely stay there again."

Fairfield Inn & Suites by Marriott Waco North

8/10 Good

"First of all the we were looking forward to a relaxing swim after a long drive & found the pool was closed for maintenance but there were folded towels in the chairs. We were there for 3 days & didn't see anyone working on it. We were on 4th floor & had to go to first floor to get ice because the machine on 4th & 3rd floor were out of order. Had notes on the machines to go to first floor. Parking area in the back & at the end of the building lacked lighting, very dark Buffet was good. Enjoyed eating there. Beds were comfortable & room very clean."
