First known as the
Travelers Hotel, this inn was completed in 1929 with 63
guest rooms and reflected the thriving economy of the New
Braunfels area at the time.
Renamed "The Faust"
in 1936 for the prominent family on whose homesite it was
built, the structure has remained in continuous use as a
hotel. Its Spanish Colonial Revival design is highlighted by
the ornate terra cotta decorative work.
