WHY I LIKE IT: Built in 1927 by acclaimed architect, Henry Trost, the iconic Gage Hotel (formerly a railroad hotel) offers rustic luxury accommodations, top-notch service and a first class bar and dining experiences. The 45-room hotel offers guests a multitude of hotel amenities and activities, including a full service spa, a heated swimming pool, 27-acre landscaped native garden, and fitness center. All set against the backdrop of the vast West Texas landscape.
DON’T MISS THE: activities arranged by Gage’s hotel concierge in near-by Big Bend National Park and the surrounding area, or a picnic on the hotel’s 27-acre garden, available upon request in advance.
DON’T KILL MY VIBE: Texas hospitality done right – kick back, relax, and soak up the stars under the immense Texas sky.
WHEN YOU KNOW, YOU KNOW: Few other historic hotels offer a more unique experience of days gone by than The Gage Hotel in Marathon, Texas. The inviting, comforting atmosphere of The Gage returns us to a time when a breath of fresh air and the magnificent night sky filled with a thousand stars was all a cowboy needed to feel alive.
