Hotel

For its 150 year history, The Shady Villa Hotel has welcomed Texas travelers 

with a penchant for small towns, state history and hometown watering holes. 

The historic hotel buildings are situated amidst lush landscaping under a canopy

 of Texas oak trees, offering a respite from I35 and serving as a rendezvous point 

for past, present, and future Texans.

The Stagecoach Restaurant is a longstanding traveler's pit-stop and town watering hole, serving Salado locals and passersby since 1861. It now offers guests breakfast, lunch, and dinner fare from a contemporary menu where Old Texas tradition meets modern techniques. The menu pays homage to the restaurant's history with original items like the Strawberry Kiss and as well as to the locale with salty Southern favorites like hushpuppies. With an emphasis on local sourcing and the mindset of a hospitable Southern host, the experience is laid back and familial, with impeccable quality and attention to detail.
