The Lincoln Marfa Hotel

Wow, what a beautifully curated set of rooms. Somehow modern in feel but with tons of charmingly old school and locally appropriate accents. Clearly a LOT of thought went into these indoor and outdoor spaces. I stayed in room number seven, and it was absolutely perfect for me, spacious living and kitchen areas, wonderful bedroom. Love the high clerestory windows on one side, letting in light from on high. I would be pleased to live in a house just like this. The Lincoln is a great entrée to Martha.

Our stay at The Lincoln was fantastic from start to finish. The rooms were genuinely great to stay in -- comfortable, quiet, and well thought out. The biggest win: my wife slept incredibly well on the bed, which rarely happens for her in hotels. That alone made this place special.||The kitchen setup was terrific, making it easy to settle into a routine. Every morning I did a cold plunge in their water tank, and every night I wound down by the fire pit—simple things, but they completely made the stay.||Clark and Adam were exceptional hosts: friendly, down to earth, and without question the best owners of a boutique hotel I’ve ever met. You can tell they really care about the place and the people staying there.||And the location couldn’t be better. Everything important in Marfa is an easy walk. I didn’t use my car once during the entire stay, except when it was time to leave town, which I wasn’t ready to do. I’d come back in a heartbeat.

The Lincoln had a ton of character and is located within walking distance of so much that Marfa has to offer. We enjoyed our stay. The room was unique and spacious, and taking a cold plunge in the cowboy pool at 24 degrees F was exhilarating. Gotta take advantage of all the amenities, right?

This is our place to stay when we visit Marfa, the rooms are very comfortable with everything you need to make coffee and meals. The vibe of the Lincoln is great, there are little sitting areas outside, a common area to visit with neighbors. The location couldn’t be better, around the corner from the Paisano and shopping. We look forward to our next visit!

Stayed at The Lincoln and couldn’t have loved it more. The rooms were incredibly comfortable—my wife slept amazingly on the bed, which basically never happens in hotels. The kitchen setup was terrific, mornings started with a cold plunge in their water tank, and nights ended by the fire pit. Clark and Adam are hands-down the best boutique hotel owners I’ve ever met: down to earth, welcoming, and genuinely great people. Plus, the location is perfect—walkable to everything that matters in Marfa. We didn’t touch our car until it was time to leave town. Can’t wait to come back.

We loved our stay at the Lincoln. It felt like home. Perfect location, great amenities, wonderful art. Loved the local radio station. Good to have a full kitchen because restaurant hours and openings can be iffy. Be sure to pick up the yellow phone out front. Loved the whole vibe of the place.

stayed in the underground Bomb Shelter room ... perfect for one person traveling along, probably fine for two. Very comfortable, with the temperature in the room maintained by a single unit for both heating and cooling. No windows, but you're underground, so you probably shouldn't be surprised. It's an easy walk to most of the places you'll want to go to in Marfa. I would happily stay here again.

We stayed for 2 nights recently and we did love the community vibe here. The guests we met while outside were so lovely and really made our stay. What I will say is this should not be called a hotel. It’s a lovely boutique lodging or a boutique motel maybe. There isn’t any housekeeping or even a check in experience. Now we have stayed on air b&bs along our trip and that is fine as that’s what I expect and do prefer but we did expect more of a hotel feel here as that is what we thought we had booked. With the website being so personal about the owners story we expected a very personal and warming hotel. Not even a greeting ! We haven’t seen any staff for our whole visit and when we reached out to contact the owners for some advice over text message as it did say on the welcome piece of paper to if we had any questions. we had zero The locals in marfa really are the loveliest friendliest people and we got our advice and recommendations from all of them :-D. The room was huge so big and spacious, the kitchen area really is equipped for you to cook a full meal if you wished with a beautiful vintage stove and large fridge. I will say the biggest problem was that the bed and pillows so uncomfortable. We would have reached out and contacted the owners to tell them but as we hadn’t heard anything from the first message we didn’t as we only had 2 Nights here - the lighting through the curtains on a morning was a problem, there is a window that runs the top of the bedroom with no curtains or blind so both morning we were woken early by light. - highly recommend a blind for this I have a dust allergy and was sneezing quite a lot in the living area. After getting comfortable I noticed a layer of dust on the sofa back which hadn’t been cleaned aswell as the lamps in the rooms and back of bed were all dusty The room was a deluxe queen and there was so much space which we did enjoy. Lots of space for our dog to run around. And hanging space for clothing The room door is beautiful so much characte r but the bottom needs some attention there is a gap which when the fire pit is lit let’s all the smoke in the room from the fire pit which is not pleasant There’s a field / grass area opposite to walk your dog which is minutes away aswell as a lovely pet shop which I highly recommend all dog owners visit and support as they are ran by a animal adoption area. The last horse was very dog friendly aswell as the water spot outside patio. All the shops we stepped into were very dog friendly. I highly recommend the Communitie Marfa especially “amongst my souvenirs” such amazing clothing. Gifts and hats and sooo knowledgeable about the local area. Unfortunately planet marfa was shut when we visited but heard many recommendations for this we felt very safe in the town as a same sex male couple which in texas we were so nervous about

Cozy, comfortable, clean, quiet and beautifully decorated with vintage charm. Our stay at the Lincoln was fabulous!!! And did I mention that the location is perfect!?! It's walking distance to everything in Marfa! The grounds are gorgeous too! If you are looking for a great place to stay in Marfa, this is it!!

Well, where do I even start on this lovely location! The Lincoln Marfa is definitely a character of its own. So unique but nostalgic at the same time. We only stayed overnight but I wish we had stayed a bit longer. I would definitely book here again if we were in Marfa. We stayed in #10 which looked exactly how it looks online on their booking site. Upon arrival, they have an old school radio playing music which was really cool. When we were getting ready to check out the next day, my daughter thought it was just so cool that she could listen to music on the radio. She got a kick out of that. There's lots of places to eat in Marfa but if you want to cook something for yourself, the Lincoln Marfa has your covered with a great stove, pots/pans, cups, plates and bowls. Also a great amount of cooking tools like a pizza cutter, knives, etc. We got one queen sized bed that was super comfy with its pillows and comforter. The coffee books and magazines were also a nice touch! Also liked the remote controlled AC/heater. Felt so futuristic in a nostalgic place. One of the things I liked a lot was the guest book. Lots of interesting characters that have stayed before you, and you can add your own interesting story to the book as well! It is conveniently located near places to eat and things to check out!

Such a special, unique and charming establishment. I don't think I can quite describe this place. It's one of those things you just have to see and experience for yourself. The ambiance, the location, the thoughtful touches throughout, the vibe, the eclectic yet tasteful esthetics makes it all feel so high-end, but without pretentiousness. The owners were so casually and effortlessly friendly. But the real MVP was their dog, who quickly made friends with ours. Very dog friendly. If you like that sorta thing, but their is also dog free areas for those that don't. I felt like I was in a movie the entire time I was in Marfa and the Lincoln was my home. ​​

Very nice, inexpensive, basic, clean room, Marfa-ish decor, comfortable bed, good location, all good, except bathroom. As other reviews note, check-in is self/remote. We needed to change rooms, so contacted mgt. They responded in about 30 minutes and were able to grant our request. The bathtub/shower was slippery with worn out traction stickers on bottom and no grab bar. This was the reason for 4 vs. 5 stars.

Such a great chill vibe and very cool rooms! Loved the bottles in the wall, the silver light bulbs, and super comfy bed.

Had a great stop and stay at The Lincoln on my drive cross country. I only had the chance to stay one night in Marfa, but I wish I had longer. Cute, clean, animal-friendly. Funky and artsy, wonderfully restored place.

Hosts Clark and Adam provided us with a great show of West Texas hospitality. We stayed in Room 6 for our visit to Marfa, and loved every bit of it. The room was well decorated with vintage West Texas furniture and it had a rustic feel to it. There was also a well-stocked kitchen area and spacious bathroom included in the dwelling. Clark and Adam were informative and responsive to any questions posed. We found this listing through Airbnb and jumped on it right away. If we come back through this area, this will be our first choice for lodging, hands down!

This was my third trip to Marfa with a friend. We have stayed at Hotel Paisano, El Cosmico in a vintage trailer, and now LINCOLN MARFA! It has such character that perfectly suits Marfa. We stayed 4 nights in the #12 Adobe with two queen beds, kitchenette, table and chairs; the kitchen and bathroom were well appointed and had everything we needed. The price was right especially when dividing with another. The sink dripped a bit, but not a serious problem. We would happily return and recommend it to others visiting such a unique place. The self check-in and check-out was perfect.

I stayed at The Lincoln for five days to dog-sit my son's dog while my son was enjoying scenic bike rides with a club from Austin. My son had stayed there a couple of times while driving between Tucson and Austin and knew I would love the little compound with the yellow doors. Clark and Adam could not have been better hosts. I loved my cottage and felt like I was home as soon as I walked in. My grand dog fell in love with Sweet Lou, the resident pup and played non stop when we weren't exploring town. The community courtyard was just out the screen door making it fun to meet guests at the fire pit. I walked everywhere for five days and loved the nearby food options. I had been to Marfa before, but those five days really made an impression and I most definitely will be back to The Lincoln.

This place was cute. We never interacted with staff. Sort of a let yourself in and let yourself out kind of place. Everything was easy to find. Good sense of design. We would both go back.

Really enjoyed staying at this funky, very "Marfa" place. It was nice to step out the door and be 1/2 Block from everything! Most importantly it met my required criteria: CLEAN, comfortable bed and good shower.The French press coffee maker was nice too but coffee shop next door if you prefer. Only negative comment is the wash clothes and hand towels are ready to be replaced. Clean but have seen better days! We will come back!!

Lovely gem of a place situated right in the heart of Marfa. Walking distance to everything, well appointed rooms and especially appreciated that they're like mini apartments. i.e. there's a kitchen, living area, etc. Definitely my go-to place now when I go to Marfa.

I can not say enough great things about this amazingly unique, so well thought out property! There are 14 individual, extremely unique units of various shapes & sizes on site. We were so pleasantly surprised by the 2 clean, thoughtfully, tastefully laid out, and decorated units we had. We brought s'mores ingredients and sat out by one of the 2 fire pits on site on a chilly November night, and it was just wonderful. We saw a few other guests but everything is laid out so well that we never felt crowded although I am pretty sure it was sold out the weekend we were there. This property is located directly across the alley from The El Paisano, so within walking distance to just about everything in town. I can't wait to go back for another stay and to check out other units on the property!

We love love this beautiful place! The calm and quiet, surrounded by beautiful Ness was priceless! We love being welcomed by, 'Lou' the wonder pup! The A/C was ice cold during the hottest summer day! Last but not least, the owners were second to none giving us the warmest welcome and accommodating us as if it were our very own home!

This was my first visit to Marfa, TX and it won't be my last. The accommodations at The Lincoln Marfa are awesome and very unique. The process to sign up was easy and the folks running the place were very good communicators. Make sure to schedule The Lincoln in advance and take the opportunity to have a great experience when you visit Marfa. Highly recommended 5 stars

We stayed at The Lincoln for 2 nights and explored Marfa, Marathon, Alpine and Fort Davis! It was comfortable, clean and exactly as described in pics. It was a great location. We were able to walk to eat and check out the town. It was nice to return back in the evening to sit outside with a glass of wine. While we were there they put down new asphalt on the road outside The Lincoln. We had to park on another street and walked over to our room to change clothes. The sidewalk in front and leading up to our walkway to our room was a mess. However, when we came back from dinner the owners of The Lincoln had it all cleaned up! They took care of it and we were impressed. We would stay here again if we return and highly recommend!!!

We spent one night in two separate unit - the Bunker and the Pink House. Having gone in the off season, we had most of the place to ourselves but the layout of the units is so well done that even if it had been packed we would still have had plenty of room and privacy. From the great swings on the porches, to the awesome ranch tub (kind of like an adult version of a kiddie pool but professionally done with lots of character, to the amazing details that indicate the designers of this establishment put a great deal of thought into every inch of this place. The locations is walking distance to all your heart could desire of central Marfa, great meals at Margarets (yea to butternut squash enchiladas), great coffee at Bitter Sugar, great lunch at Para Llevar (fluffy salads, fresh hummus, crazy good flatbread) - and all to come back to the wonderful Lincoln for porch sitting, tub bathing, and sound sleep. I stayed in the Bunker- and though I would not recommend it for anyone with Vertigo as the descent into this super cool bunker might find you dizzy, I would recommend it to anyone who wants to hide away in a room so dark that your sleep is amazing and so isolating that you forget time. I do think the shower is rather slim so if you are a larger person - and there is nothing wrong with large folks!!! - maybe get a different unit. My friends stayed in the Pink House and it was STUNNING! For those who don't realize- that IS Mary Todd above the kitchen fireplace. The living room has a massive - comfortable sofa (someone could probably sleep there if you needed) - it has a great porch overlooking a raised pond out to the church across the street. The beds were great, showers strong, In closing - I actually think this would be a great spot for a destination wedding if someone were getting hitched in Marfa and wanted close family and friends nearby - I would recommend renting all the units and having a great time!

Such a cute and safe ambiance. This hotel has all the fixings for the Marfa experience: multiple fire pits, bbq grill, pool, murals, kitchenettes, and cozily furnished rooms. Each room is a unique experience, just a stones throw away from Big Bend national park. We were in room 4, which came with a living space, Kitchenette, bathroom and bedroom. We easily slept 3 in the space. Our bathroom was on the smaller side and the shower unfortunately did not have an enclosed space - as a result, we ended up getting water all around the bathroom. However, the water supply was plentiful and hot, which was a big plus. The bed was also a little creaky and uncomfortable. The room was thoughtfully stocked with anything and everything we could need: makeup towels, knives, extra towels, rugs, and so forth. The staff was super quick in getting us extra sheets for the sofa bed. That night, we enjoyed the dark starry night sky with our bonfire in the courtyard. The space is mostly quiet at night, with the exception of train noises. Make sure to pack bug spray and marshmallows. Parking is free and right out front. Overall, a terrific experience!

The Lincoln is the perfect place to stay in Marfa. Comfortable, charming, unbeatable location. Easy, breezy check in and check out. Can't wait to come back!

I stayed at the Lincoln for two nights with 10 members of my family. We were all delighted. We loved having breakfast together in the superbly outfitted Mary Todd Kitchen. We sat of porches in front of one house or another having drinks and visiting. The central location in downtown Marfa was ideal. Rooms were immaculate. Service by Adam always available at the end of of phone line.

Great location, beautiful rooms that are very comfortable. I enjoyed my stay and plan on going back.

Fantastic, cool, eclectic! The location is perfect, just around the corner from a number of cool places to eat, drink & shop. The grounds of the Lincoln are beautiful with great gardens and lots of nice shady places to sit and relax. Room 8 has a huge bedroom and an enormous kitchen/dining/living area. Everything was clean, well-maintained, and very comfortable! The art was fun and the overall design was great! Checking in and out was remote and simple! Communication with management was excellent! We were there for three nights and loved it. We will definitely be back!

We stayed in Room 10 while at The Lincoln. Room came with everything you might need, shampoo, conditioner, local coffee, AC, etc. beautiful place, so unique. Had no issues while we were there but if I had questions I would just send a text. Overall a great choice while in Marfa.

We loved this place. Bright, comfortable (air-conditioned, nice bed, everything worked), charming vintage set-up. When we arrived (to the #5 Mary Todd room), an old Victrola radio was playing for us. We enjoyed sitting on the mini-patio in the shade and reading our books. Really well located in the center of town across from the charming courthouse/city hall. Highly recommend.

I really enjoyed my stay at the Lincoln Marfa. I feel like it's the best parts of a hotel (easy booking and check-in) and Airbnb (dog-friendly, private entrance) combined. There are no cookie cutter rooms here. I stayed in two different rooms on separate nights. One was a big open loft with a casita-style shower. One was a smaller suite with a separate kitchen and a more traditional bathroom with a bathtub, so they were very different. There is also an underground bunker room which I didn't get the chance to stay in but sounds like a unique experience! The location is great. It's right next to the Aster cafe (perfect spot for breakfast but make sure to get there early) and is walking distance of anything in town. The Lincoln is also across the street from the city hall square which is a nice and convenient place to walk your dog, thanks to the big areas of grass.

The Lincoln is exactly what I was looking for! We were on a 3 day road trip from TX to CA and Marfa was our first stop of the trip. We walked to get pizza for dinner and loved seeing the quiet town. It's a great location! We stayed in #7 because we had our two dogs with us. The place looks exactly like the photos. Check in was easy and the grounds were all well maintained and felt safe. Loved all the amenities (who gives a crap toilet paper and Public Goods toiletries -- my kind of people!). Everything worked great and could see this being an ideal spot for a group to stay in. The kitchen was fully stocked with cookware and utensils. Only issue we had was the amount of light that came in to the rooms. I'm a light sleeper and there are two high windows near the roof that light flooded in from. I believe it was from the market lights -- or maybe the moon was showing off that night) but it was a bit of a challenge to sleep since I need total darkness. Check out is even easier and the staff are communicative and helpful via text! Definitely book the Lincoln for your next trip!

very comfortable, clean and homey. Adam went over and above helping, extremely courteous and friendly. Would definitely recommend

This is a wonderful place to stay! We were treated like friends by the proprietors. My son got married in the courthouse across the street. We initially stayed in unit 3 so we could host an after party and we did. We had drinks and served finger food. The full kitchen was perfectly appointed. We loved the fire pits, the soaking tub (the idea of it is great-we didn't get in-too cold in December) the intimate outdoor seating areas were appreciated, the live fish habitat was neat. We loved meeting Lou, she's adorable! This is a lengthy review but I feel I haven't captured the essence of this place. Hmmm. This place is magical! If you're on the fence, do it! You'll be happy you did! I am! It's like no place I've ever been. How many times can you say that? Our flight home was cancelled but we were able to extend our stay by a day in unit 12 which also had a full kitchen and was absolutely perfect. If I return to Marfa, the Lincoln is the only place I'll stay! Thank you!

This place was spacious and cozy. We only stayed one night, but it would be a great spot for a few nights since it has the full kitchen. Definitely will stay again!

Very well located, the Lincoln is walking distance from galleries, resturaunts, museums and historical sites in Marfa. The rooms are clean, check-in is clear and seamless and nothing is needed for check-out. I would recommend this as a good option when staying in Marfa

Perfect. So well done. We loved the in room theater, the bathtub, the kitchen. Again, well done. More than expected. Thank you.

What a pleasant suprise! Jeanette and I were a bit nervous about visiting Marfa during the big freeze of Christmas 2022 but the room was fantastic, the town charming and the proprietors took care of our every need. Can't wait to go back and visit again!

We had a blast and highly recommend the Lincoln Marfa! We were in #4 which had a fun little loft area that our kiddos loved. The setup was very family-friendly. The couch bed was perfect for our 5-year-old. The little kitchen area was perfect and the bed was great. We also loved the little sitting areas outside and the fish pond. Such a fun place and we'd love to come back!

The Lincoln is such a fantastic place right in the middle of town. We stayed at the Mary Todd House and it had everything we could need for our family. The home is stunning. The grounds are well kept. Everything was sparkling clean and the owners were great hosts. We are looking forward to returning every year with our kiddo and family.

Very cute, clean and comfortable! We stopped in Marfa for a quick overnight on our way to Arizona from Austin. The Lincoln was the perfect stay. Self check in and self check out was easy. The room was very clean. I was skeptical because we stayed in a room that allowed pets, but you would never know pets were allowed in there. The kitchen had plenty of cookware, dishes and glasses. There was local coffee and a French press in the room. There was dish soap and a drying rack. The bathroom was clean and there were plenty of toiletries available for an overnight stay. The Lincoln is located in a spot where you can easily walk to various places in town. We would highly recommend.

Such a funky and lovely place! This was a perfect little stopover before roughing it in Big Bend National Park. We'll be back!

Location! We loved our stay at the Lincoln Marfa. It is right in the heart of town, walking distance to all of the stores, restaurants and galleries. Room 4 was great for our needs as a couple; spacious, comfortable and nicely decorated. We'll definitely be back!

We loved The Lincoln Marfa. It was in a great location across the street from the county court house and walking distance to local businesses. It was right next door to the Aster a fantastic breakfast and lunch bakery cafe. The Lincoln rooms had a kitchen with the basics. I loved the bocce court, and courtyards. Great place to stay! David Dallas

It was such a great spot to stay with its unique setting and lovely rooms. The hosts thought of everything to make our stay comfortable. Location is perfect to the downtown shops and restaurants. We would recommend this unique spot (loved #12) to anyone traveling the Marfa area.

Loved staying in #12. Very comfortable , and the courtyard was an added bonus to sit out, enjoy the evening, and have a glass of wine!

We booked online and got the confirmation of booking email that said we would get the check in email at check in time. No email as we are standing outside the place with all our stuff. I texted the number like they asked and waited. Nothing. Texted again, nothing. After four phone calls and 45 minutes, we FINALLY get into our room. This was completely unacceptable. The room was HOT. We immediately turn on the AC. For $200 a night, the shower should not feel like jail. I get that y'all are trying to keep some authenticity, but no. The shower head was pathetic and the shower curtain was yellow with mold at the bottom. For $200 a night the AC should be able to be set to whatever I want to put it on. We were sweaty and miserable all night long. Everything is done by email and text, which is fine, as long as someone actually answers. That was not the case here. I liked this area, but for $22 more I could have stayed at an actual hotel with quality control and cleanliness that I could tell someone about if it's not right. I'm sure when this place first opened, it was fantastic, but it's showing a lot of wear.

Such a unique stay close to restaurants and fun stores! Super clean and set up super nicely! Great if you want to stay a few nights or even just one night but you be sad you didn't get to hang out longer! I hope to come back someday!

My husband and I are frequent Marfa travelers. We love the area, and the discovery of new experiences -- and people -- each and every trip. We have lodged in all of Marfa's best hotels, and have enjoyed some remarkable Airbnb accommodations, but nothing could have quite prepared us for what Adam and Clark have created with the Lincoln. Our casita (#7) was simply wonderful -- well appointed, spacious, every conceivable amenity, quiet, convenient. Nothing in central Marfa is more than a 10 minute walk. With an understated charm often sought but rarely achieved by hosts and boutique hotels, The Lincoln has nailed it. After 14 years of coming to this enchanted region of Far West Texas, we are hooked. We cannot wait to return. Thanks, guys, for making the Lincoln Marfa's best home away from home. We will be back.

Just as funky and artsy as Marfa! Our room was spacious and comfortable - perfect for us and our two dogs. Perfect location, close to everything, Lovely courtyards (but since our stay was in late December, we couldn't make use of them). Very reasonably priced, worth every penny for a memorable and fun experience.

There are several great things about The Lincoln, starting with the booking process - very easy online. The pictures helped sell it. Finding number 12 was fun- we wandered through, around and between the gardens and brightly colored buildings. Peeked at the fallout shelter entrance, but didn't go in. Checking in was simple - the door was open and all the info we needed was there. First impression was the textures of the walls - rugged but nice contrast to the beds, which were very good. And pillows, lots of good pillows on each bed. Lots of room in the main room and the bath. The full size refrigerator was a plus. The local radio station, KMKB was playing as we arrived and it turned out to be a treat with no ads but a unique variety of music. I'm still listening to the stream. Showering in the stand-alone tub was an unforgettqble experience - snug between the curtains. Water was hot and quick to arrive. And towels! Eight bath towels! What luxury for two people! We found and used the video projector which had amazing quality, with access to several of the streaming services we use at home. Great idea! Thanks.

We really enjoyed our stay. Adam was very responsive and accommodating! The suite was spacious and fully equipped to our satisfaction.

We loved the The Lincoln! Walking into the room, we were greeted with music. Turns out it's a awesome radio station: WMWB--so good! And once you tour Judd's studio you'll feel like you're enjoying a sort of Judd-jibe at The Lincoln. Really perfect experience!!!

Had the most amazing stay EVER! The Lincoln is right across the street from the gorgeous Marfa court house and a short walk or drive from plenty of restaurants/bars/coffee shops. I stayed in #12 which shockingly used to be a tool shed, I believe, but now is a modern, luxurious cabin. The main room has two super comfy beds, a cool projector in case you feel like Netflix and chilling, and a kitchen fully stocked with everything you would need to prepare food for a night in. The bathroom is HUGE with a clawfoot tub and plenty of natural light. Right outside of the room is a pool and it's perfectly located right behind the Mary Todd House. The owners are super cool and provided everything I could possibly need to stay comfortable and enjoy everything that Marfa has to offer. To top it all off, they went the extra mile during Covid to ensure the safety of their guests at all time. Can't wait to come back and try a different room!

Had the pleasure of staying at The Lincoln Marfa for Art Blocks Weekend. Great location next to a wonderful little breakfast/brunch place. Full kitchen and super quiet. Really couldn't ask for more. Felt like home.
