“The Holiday Host Motel in Sonora is your classic old school motel right out of the 1950s. It's located on what used to be the main east-west highway into and out of Sonora - Loop 467 (old US 290), before the completion of Interstate 10 back in the early to mid 1970s. My wife and I stayed here for a night in August 2020 while on vacation and sightseeing in the hill country area of Texas and were very pleased. This is the best deal in town (under $60 per night including tax) and is perfect for the budget minded no frills type of traveler. Don't expect a 5-star hotel with all the amenities, but if what you are looking for is a simple, clean and relaxing place to rest your head while on the road, this is the place to go in Sonora. The room and the bathroom were both clean and the air conditioner worked well cooling off the room nicely. I'm a big fan of these classic motels and I especially liked the old style cinder block walls in the room. The room came furnished with a modern flat screen TV, small microwave and small refrigerator. The entire outside property was well kept. For those who must have internet, there is WIFI (I usually try and get away from the internet as much as possible while on vacation). The only thing that kept me from rating the property a 9 (I gave it 8 out of 10) was the fact that it had a pool but it was completely empty. A nice, clean, attractive and functioning pool would be an added bonus for this motel. This aside, the Holiday Host Motel is a good value and perfectly adequate. Why pay more at a ubiquitous chain motel? This will be the place my wife and I stay if we are ever in Sonora again.”
