After my husband and I were driving back home from Arizona we decided to stay in Van Horn,TX and decided to give Hotel El Capitan and OMG..so glad we did!! A very beautiful and historic hotel. And the staff, super nice…especially Alma at the front desk! The rooms were a bit small but the comfiness of the beds made up for it after a long drive! We will definitely keep this place in mind passing through again!!

Great hotel!
This is a wonderful, beautiful historic hotel with a great restaurant. Although the rooms are small (as to be expected in a hotel built in 1930), it was cozy and very comfortable (and great towels!). If you are in the area, you should definitely stay there!
