The Mercantile on the Katy Trail

We absolutely LOVED our stay at The Mercantile on the Katy Trail. This place is seriously a gem.

The second we walked in, I was in love with the character of the space. The gorgeous original-style wood floors, huge windows, soaring ceilings, vintage light fixtures and that incredible black tin ceiling 😍 — it has all the charm and personality you want in a historic property, but still feels comfortable, clean and completely livable.

And can we talk about the bathroom?! The clawfoot tub, brass fixtures, beautiful tile and all of the little details made it feel downright luxurious. The entire place is spacious, bright and thoughtfully put together without feeling overly decorated or fussy. There was plenty of room to spread out, relax and actually feel at home.

Everything was clean, comfortable and welcoming, and you can tell a lot of care has gone into preserving the personality of the building while making it a wonderful place to stay.

I would absolutely stay here again and wouldn’t hesitate for a second to recommend it to anyone visiting the area or traveling the Katy Trail. If you love old buildings, beautiful architecture, a little bit of history and accommodations with actual SOUL instead of another cookie-cutter hotel room—this is your place.

Five very enthusiastic stars from us. ❤️

Cleanliness and quick response to requests.

Location. Facilities. Super clean. Lovely suites that you could live in for months if you wished.

Nice and roomy.

Feels like you are in an urban apartment with the best of the best design and furnishings down to stocked kitchen accessories. Stylish in all the quality ways. Super special place. Loved it!!

Very nice accommodations, super convenient to the Katy trail.
Limited items for breakfast, only eggs, toast and coffee. They had cerel but no milk.
Bed was comfortable, but would have liked a pillow that wasn't so large and firm
Might suggest a sign on the building or in front of it, as it took a little while to figure out if I was at the correct place

Great room. Shower pressure a little soft but oberall great place.

It was a challenge at first to identify the building. The unit was very clean. The kitchen had nice accessories. The bed was uncomfortable. There wasn’t any cream for the coffee. Light switches were confusing. And you could hear the neighbors in other rooms.

Big open space for kitchen n. Clean and new.

The room was fantastic and the location was good to explore the surrounding area. We would stay here again.

The property was very well decorated and appointed with anything you would need. It was clean and had all sorts of toiletries that you might need, which was a nice bonus. I felt safe walking outside at night with my dog as the area was very quiet.

We booked The Mercantile on the Katy Trail as a last minute, on a whim stay during our family road trip. We couldn't believe how amazing the property was when we arrived. Every detail was thought of, and what an amazing place to stay! It was by far the best place we stayed during our multi-state road trip. Highly recommend to anyone!!!

Beautiful building. Vintage furnishings. Very clean. Lovely extra touches.
Olga was very accommodating and made every effort to make me feel welcome.
