Wonderful historic inn

The inn is just perfect for a quiet and restful stay. The grounds are so peaceful and beautiful. The inn keeper went out of his way to make sure my TV was working. My room was extremely clean and comfortable. If you are in the Rockdale area don't waste your time with the corporate motels. Try the Rainbow Courts. You won't be disappointed.

This is the oldest hotel in Texas and it is so well maintained. The people are friendly and helpful. The beds are so comfortable and the air purifier lulls me to sleep with the white noise. I loved staying here! They have a beautiful courtyard and friendly cats, too! I will definitely be back there soon!

The room to was clean and quaint. It has a beautiful property and wish I had stayed longer to enjoy the Gardens and firepits. Was in town for Sunkissed Music Fesitval which was awesome if you missed it. Rainbow Courts was close to the venue and easy access in and out. Thank you.

Rainbow Courts was a fantastic place to stay while exploring the area. I loved the historic Carraige House with its rich colors and comfort amenities like the jacuzzi tub, full kitchen, and king-size bed. In the morning and evening sitting on the balcony patio you can hear the train going by and if you have a good imagination you can almost picture the town and hotel as they were over a hundred years ago. We will be back!

I wish I stayed longer!

What a beautiful little spot just a few minutes from Austin. I didn’t know of the historic weight this motel had until I got there, and what a pleasant surprise to see this little oasis. I wish I had stayed longer, but I only needed a place to spend the night and continue my trip. I will come back for sure and stay for a weekend.

Always a great place to stay that had memories for my parents as they spent their wedding night there in 1946❤️ So every time we have a family event we try to stay there.
