Wow. This place is truly an old time motel, but it was completely awesome. It's just a little ten or so room motel with a pool, and the rooms are a little dated and tired, but completely functional with refrigerators and microwaves. What made this so awesome was the owners. They were completely friendly and helpful. We wanted a pizza,... More

We stayed in Riata Inn Marfa to see the mysterious lights and on the way to Chinati Hot Springs. We checked other hotels/motels in Marfa, and got sticker shocks for all others--in a small town in the middle of nowhere. No frills and yes, the building/rooms were old, but we both thought that our room was well kept and cleaned.... More

I spoke with the manager over the phone to make a reservation and he was very pleasant. We were very happy to get a booking as it was a spur of the moment trip over Labor Day weekend. We arrived at 11:30 at night after attending the star party at the Macdonald Observatory in Fort Davis. My husband checked us... More

We didn't know what to expect. We had to drive 12 hours to get to Marfa,Tx from our home NE of Houston. We were greeted by the on-site team Managers, Mr. and Mrs. Rick Creasy. They were so warm, kind, and helpful on everything we needed. A lot of times had nothing to do with the motel, but needed help... More

Hotel had great service, location was nice, quite and felt like home.

My mother and I stayed here because the other two hotels in this town close at ten at night. We were very nicely greeted and the gentleman who checked us in was pleasant. When we got to our room it was hot, the a/c was not on and it was over 100 outside. We walked in and immediately noticed the... More

We drove to the Marfa area from Kansas for the Memorial Day weekend. We wanted to see the Marfa Lights, then go on south to Chinati Hot Springs the next day. We knew we were going to get in late, so the staff at Riata Inn made arrangements for us to get into our room when we got there. They... More

In Marfa, we first stopped at the Thunderbird Inn, but that motel was, in our view, totally overpriced. Besides that, the reception was cold - not cool - and when we took a brief look around the pool of this 'design motel' it struck us that the people who were hanging around this small pool did not look 'designish' at...

The Riata Inn was the perfect choice for our purposes. It was clean, quiet, comfortable, well-located, the rates were reasonable and the owners, Traci and Rick, could not have been more helpful and welcoming. We enjoyed our time in Marfa immensely and the wonderful hospitality we experienced at the Riata Inn contributed a lot to our favorable impressions and great... More
