Great historic hotel that provides the best room and board in Van Horn. The only thing to note is that the vintage rooms are vintage sized! If you have more than one guest in your party, definitely go for a larger room!

It is a historic property. Enjoy its quaintness. Having stayed here numerous times, I/we do find an inordinate number of dogs in nearby guest rooms. The barking is a distraction and forces us to use a "sleep sound machine" to drown out the noise.

Wonderful, historic hotel in downtown Van Horn, TX. Restful central courtyard with fountain. Original tile and woodwork in public spaces. Lively dining room and bar. Very comfortable room with period, yet updated, bathroom. Memorable stay at El Capitan.
