What guests think

Reviews of The Fredonia Hotel highlight a stylish, mid‑century vibe, a walkable downtown location, friendly staff, on‑site dining and bars, and two pool areas with outdoor amenities, alongside recurring notes about small rooms and parking strain during busy events.

Many guests praise clean, comfortable rooms and the retro decor, though a few mention maintenance issues or occasional odors and A/C performance. Food and drinks receive frequent compliments, with the City Cafe and Republic Steakhouse noted positively, though some report high prices or slower poolside service. The pools, movie screen, and fireplace add appeal, but water cleanliness or crowding and late music can affect stays near poolside rooms. Overall, expect a character-filled boutique stay best for those who value location and atmosphere over room size and absolute quiet.

The Fredonia Hotel was nice. At 9:00 pm, there were no parking spots. I was told that there were empty parking spaces at the church. What church? We are in our late 70’s. My husband has a hip injury, and they said they could not help. It is now 10:00 pm. Oh, outside a band was playing at the pool, we could make out the words the singer was saying. It went on until 11:00 pm. Maybe inquire if there will be a parking space available for you, and if a band is playing. Room was very nice, but it was stressful.

Hotel and rooms very nice. However the presence of an event center created problems. Wedding participants took all luggage carts to their rooms and didn't return them. We had to carry our luggage (with help from a hotel employee) to our room. We also were subjected to loud music for most of the evening. Parking was also very difficult. Avoid Sat. nights.

The stay was awful. We were in a room directly outside the pool. The pool was completely packed with people getting drunk and not watching their kids. You couldn’t even use the amenities because it wasn’t safe because of all the drunk people. We had to wake up early and couldn’t go to sleep until after midnight because it was so loud outside of the room. There was no parking. There was trucks taking up two spaces. Way over priced.

It’s a lovely property that has been significantly updated, including a nice bar with screens, a very nice and large restaurant, and a lovely outdoor pool area (it was chilly and raining so no swimming and sunning for us). Our room was clean and updated, but incredibly small and it was somewhat difficult and inconvenient for the two of us to move around. Very small closet space, no sitting desk top, a tiny bathroom that was modern but missing on a few details. We were not aware, or missed, that the space was this small (the lowest cost room at $200 per night) and, in hindsight, an upgrade would have been a good idea. If you are coming as a single guest and will be spending little time in your room … I suppose it would be mostly fine. Otherwise, upgrade to a bit more space. Staff was very polite, efficient, and helpful. Parking is free and abundant outside and around the property. Walkable to the “downtown” area (a few blocks) as well as to the university campus (about a mile) which is in a very nice east Texas setting. SFU also contains an arboretum and azalea garden (they are blooming all around in Late March). Fredonia is an asset to Nac and if you are OK to spend a little more than the chain/budget hotel experience you’ll have a nice time here and be pleased overall with the experience (ref above re upgrade for space).

Cons: Very small room for double Queen beds. Small Bathroom was disappointing. Had mini fridge, plus a coffee machine but it had a note to move to another plug for use, and no microwave. Noisy even from 5th floor. Did not equal the value For $320 for 1 night The pros: dog friendly in 1 part of hotel, great location to SFA, and good restaurant and bar.

The AC in the room was noisy and cycled off and on all night. As a light sleeper, this made sleeping difficult. The shower was nice, but no soap made for a hollow experience. I think the downstairs bartender thought I was going to walk on my drinks; awkward. All in all I was ready to leave when the time came and will probably explore other options on my next trip. The price and the overall experience fell short of expectations for the priciest hotel in Nac. Disappointed.

Plus each room has a Keurig in it so you can make yourself a fresh cup of coffee anytime you want. We highly recommend the City Cafe and the hotel bar. Happy hour is especially fun and frequently crowded. This is now the only hotel we will stay in when we go to Nacogdoches. If the Fredonia Hotel is booked, then we just reschedule our trip until the hotel has vacancies!

The hotel was very nice, clean, and staff was friendly. I did have an issue with my room\'s sink. It would not drain and unfortunately, after I checked in I had to immediately leave and wasn\'t back until after 11, so it was something I had to deal with for my stay. Only other small issue I had was upon checkout, my family and I wanted to have brunch before we left. We made it down to the café about 10 (we had plans to meet family there at that time or I would\'ve pushed it earlier) and I just stopped by the front desk to let her know about the sink. While I was there I asked if it was ok to leave our bags upstairs while we ate, thinking we could possibly go over 11:00 checkout time by a few minutes. The girl who assisted me wasn\'t very polite about it. "I mean, you can if you don\'t go past 11. We are fully booked tonight." Logic would state that I am pretty sure they aren\'t cleaning all rooms at the exact same time, right at 11. A better response, in my opinion, would\'ve been, yes I can make a note on your account to come after 11:30, etc. So it was a vibe of a "I mean your stay is over, so you gotta go..." So instead of sitting down with my family I had to spend another 15/20 minutes loading up my car before we could eat. We were on a time crunch, so this was a bit of a disappointment. I was just a little put off by that. Otherwise, the stay was nice.

We were trapped on the 5th floor due to a widespread power outage. There were 3 main problems: 1. The emergency stairs were pitch black, no way to see the steps. 2. There is no back-up phone system to communicate with the staff or let anyone know if there is an emergency. 3. They were working on the elevator without letting anyone above the first floor know. An inexcusably dangerous situation was created that could easily have been avoided.

Disappointed in my first stay at the Fredonia, the nicest hotel in Nacogdoches and most expensive. Thunder/lightening storm blew in around midnight. Lost power all night. No A\C. No lights until 8:30am the next morning. Stood at the elevator to leave for over 10 minutes like a dummy. Elevator not working. No sign. No notice from hotel staff. Had to walk 4 stories down stairs with my luggage. Hot, humid and unnecessary. Hotel of this caliber should have a generator available for the storms this city has experienced for years. No communication from staff regarding power outage. No additional support staff to assist patrons. Poor old lady with wheelchair and walker had to climb downstairs 5 flights! I was behind her and the one guy loaded like a pack.mule helping her with luggage and disibilty equipment. No apologies or compensation for my I convince offered at checkout desk which had no internet to access my account. So much for quality and luxury.

Thought the hotel was a cute boutique hotel. They were out of a lot of beers while there, so didn’t get to try some while we were there. AC in the rooms is on a motion sensor, so that’s challenging but the front desk can adjust that if requested. Service was excellent there and the steakhouse was delish.

The terrace pool was clean but cold. We didn’t have time to try the other heated pool on property. Bed was comfy and hotel was clean and comfortable with a neat vibe. No door on the shower was strange, but overall our stay was great. We loved being walking distance to the Fredonia Brewery. Definitely stay again if we are in town. We came for a show at Banita Creek Hall but it got moved to the SFA coliseum (not in walking distance)

The hotel rooms were clean and well kept. I had issues with their Steakhouse the Republic of Fredonia. Arrived at the restaurant at our reservation time. After asking my name (my wife and I are of Mexican descent), we were told our table was not ready and we could wait at the bar or in the waiting area. I counted 6 open tables at the time. While waiting, 4 white couples checked AFTER us, and were all seated immediately. I pointed this obvious fact out to the hostess, and was offered bar table seating in their lounge chairs and low rise table. I refused the bar area seating and asked for a real table that we had a reservation for. We were then seated at one of the open dining tables. The waiter was pleasant, the dinner service was good. The food was phenomenal. I ordered a filet and burgundy mushrooms. During dinner a number of couples left and more white patrons seated. Upon leaving, i noticed two open tables, and a black couple waiting in the waiting area to be seated. Needless to say, what is obvious, is obvious.. will never return to this restaurant or hotel again…
