Hotel McCoy - Art Libations Pool Society

Retro Vibes & Local Flavor in the Heart of College Station

Modern meets vintage at Hotel McCoy - Art Libations Pool Society, a colorful and creative 3-star stay that's a short drive from Texas A&M University and some of College Station's most popular music venues. With a laid-back vibe, funky decor, and local art everywhere you turn, this is the kind of place that feels like a community, not just a hotel.

Guests enjoy access to free bikes, a sparkling outdoor pool, a fitness center, and a vibrant shared lounge, all wrapped in a uniquely Texan atmosphere. Rooms are stylish and comfortable with air-conditioning, flat-screen TVs, and free WiFi—ideal for crashing after a night of live music.

Why Concert-goers love it

This hotel is just over 4 miles from Texas A&M, making it an easy ride to and from campus-area venues like Rudder Auditorium and Reed Arena. With 24-hour front desk service, flexible arrival is no problem—even after a late show. And thanks to its slightly tucked-away location, you can count on a quieter night's sleep compared to downtown spots.

Who this Hotel is great for

• Groups of friends who want a fun, social base with games and a pool
• Solo travelers looking for a safe, welcoming place with character
• Couples turning a concert into a full weekend getaway
• Fans seeking a chill recovery zone away from the campus buzz
• Budget-conscious music lovers who don’t want to sacrifice style

Food and Drink Options

The on-site restaurant serves up delicious Mexican cuisine, and there’s a bar for pre-show sips or post-show wind-downs. With a daily buffet breakfast available, late risers are covered. While 24/7 room service isn’t offered, the hotel’s community-focused vibe means you're never far from a snack or a good conversation.

Nightlife Options

While not a party hotel, Hotel McCoy has its own cool social scene. The on-site bar offers a curated selection of local libations, and the shared lounge often hosts casual hangouts and low-key events. For those wanting more energy, the bars and breweries around Texas A&M are just a quick drive or ride-share away.

What People Say

Guests love the artsy aesthetic and say it feels more like a boutique experience than a chain. Many mention the friendly staff, great value, and unique touches like murals and ping pong tables. The pool and patio area are also crowd favorites for relaxing between events.

Areas for Improvement

While it’s not far from concert venues, you’ll likely need a car or ride-share to get around—it’s not in a walkable nightlife district. Some guests also note that soundproofing isn’t perfect, so light sleepers may want to pack earplugs just in case.

The Bottom Line

Hotel McCoy is a vibrant, affordable, and welcoming home base for concert-goers who want a unique place to stay without sacrificing comfort or fun.
