We weren't sure what to expect, booking online from 1000 miles away, but were happily surprised with our accommodations in the old schoolhouse. The full kitchen and spacious room made our week long vacation a joy. We will definitely book next time we are in the area. Thank you.

Arrived quite late and received a very warm and friendly welcome from the owner. Our room was exceptionally clean and nicely renovated in keeping with the motel's vintage. The grounds are well manicured and very nicely landscaped. Rainbow Courts is an excellent place to step back in time, relax, and enjoy a bit of nostalgia without sacrificing comfort and cleanliness.... More

How long since you stayed in a "court"? Probably never for most. Courts, you know, those things you pass by sometimes that are falling in, weed overgrown, and uninhabited for who knows how long. Well, the Rainbow Courts is a different story. This place is the real deal. It is the longest continuously operating motel in Texas. Since 1918. I... More

Believe the great reviews and the "Traveler's Choice" Awards - all well deserved - but DO NOT BOOK through Expedia!

Cannot say enough wonderful things-beautifully maintained and cared for by the owners. Has the feel of a bed and breakfast because of the welcoming atmosphere. I stayed in the Carriage house which was wonderful. The rooms are beautifully decorated-great place to stay for the Round Top antique show or even just for a getaway. Truly an amazing find.

We so enjoyed our two night stay in Rainbow Courts, the rooms are wonderful, beds are amazing (I can't sleep anywhere but my own bed and I actually slept very well here). The staff are so helpful and are willing to assist you in anyway they can. I would give them the highest rating that I could. Our little cottage... More

Had family reunion nearby, and Rainbow Courts was recommended by a cousin. Wow! My expectations were met and exceeded (never ventured to Rockdale, so very unsure of what to expect)! Stayed in a single unit which was very efficiently arranged. As in many small, rural communities, the trains lumbered through occasionally, but very little disturbance thanks to air units. The...

Clean, attentive and took care any and all needs. Staff was very professional. The cat Saphire moved in with me. Had a great catered appreciation dinner for the guests. The rates are very reasonable. The property was well kept and clean and grass was always cut.

After reading the many excellent reviews, the family owned "hotel" exceeded my families expectations! We stayed in the Carriage House which is one of the oldest historic buildings on the property, and was extremely clean and comfy! I couldn't have imagined a more cozy cottage for my family and I to have stayed in. From the Decor of the rooms... More
