    May 06, 2013

    My wife and I got married at The Inn At Craig Place on April 26th, and it could not have been more beautiful. Gregg and Kelly were the perfect hosts. I have never seen anyone work as hard as these two people and their staff. The food was gourmet and the ambience was fantastic...!!!! They truly went out of their way to make our special day even more special...!!! We will definitely be spending anniversaries there...!!! Joe and Pam Rogers

    Weekend Getaway

    April 25, 2013

    We loved our stay at Inn at Craig Place. We enjoyed having breakfast brought to our room each morning and they made sure we had breakfast to go the morning we had a flight at 6am. It is one of our favorite bed and breakfasts now. We hope to return in the future.

    Awesome living "local" experience in a trendy historic neighborhood!

    April 14, 2013

    Delicious breakfast every morning, warm and friendly hosts, and a location close to every thing that makes San Antonio famous, minus the feeling of being in the middle of all the hustle and bustle. We enjoyed being walking distance from a lot of little shops and restaurants and feeling like we were "local" for the weekend and living in a trendy neighborhood close to all the hotspots. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Craig's Place and would highly recommend the Inn to anyone new to Texas or even to those who live close by (like us).

    Our stay over Easter weekend

    April 03, 2013

    The best B&B we've stayed. Gregg & Kelly are very personable and helpful. They gave us recommendations for restaurants and places to see. We like to eat by ourselves and liked the option of having breakfast on the balcony. The inn is beautiful, romantic and full of history. There are not enough words to compliment the food - every breakfast was different with dessert! We had strawberry crepes, cobbler and chocolate soufflé. Stay here - this is the best B&B you will stay at.

    40th Wedding Anniversary Celebration

    April 01, 2013

    Our children gave us a visit to the Inn at Craig Place to celebrate our anniversary. We have stayed at many B&B's and this was wonderful Inn. The innkeepers attention to so many small details made this an exceptional visit. We especially loved the Hilibrand room with the private balcony area and the food was delicious. We would highly recommend this Inn and are looking forward to a return visit.

    Best Honeymoon Stay!

    March 24, 2013

    My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon. The Inn was quiet, well-cleaned, romantic, and affordable. We loved our breakfasts outside on the second story patio and we stayed in the Happily Ever After room where we could utilize a fireplace and a jacuzzi! Gregg and Kelly gave us our every need and the food was to die for. We cannot wait to visit again on our one-year anniversary!

    Enjoyed our stay

    March 23, 2013

    It was our second time in the bed and breakfast and loved it. The rooms are beautiful, the food was delish, and the people were friendly. We are talking on going back and maybe even doing our 20 year redoing our marriage there at the Inn! If you never been, its a must!
