About this vendor
**Currently Closed for Renovations**
The Faust Hotel, in New Braunfels, Texas, originally dubbed the "Traveler's Hotel", is slated to reopen in 2025 and return to its roots as the city’s central meeting place after a full property renovation.
"The Faust Hotel will return to a refreshed 1920's elevated ambiance. With an intent to preserve
history and charm while elevating amenities, our goal is to ensure that The Faust remains a
strong and welcoming historical landmark. Upon reopening, we plan to have multiple food and
beverage outlets honoring the approachable Astro-German culture of New Braunfels. We will
continue to cherish the history of The Faust while bringing her into the next century in style,"
says owner, Andy Duettra.
After serving New Braunfels for nearly 100 years, the downtown hotel will close its doors,
returning to bring an elevated-style to match the new feel. The 58-room property will offer a
modern design, inspired by its roots from the 1920s. A new full-service restaurant/bar, to be
named Wilhelm und Werner, a separate speakeasy, and upscale hotel amenities are to be
expected. The hotel's meeting and event space will be transformed to host social gatherings
and group business. As the only hotel in downtown New Braunfels, The Faust Hotel is a
popular location within walking distance to many restaurants, bars, and retail shopping. Magnolia
Patio, the hotel's outdoor bar and light bites space, will also close during the renovation.

I absolutely loved working with McKenna at the Faust for our big day!!! She was so nice, quick to respond, and helpful with our planning. The Faust was a great and affordable option for our reception for approximately 65 guests (we had our ceremony at my parent’s house on Lake Dunlap). My guests also LOVED the venue and had a blast at our wedding. I thought I’d be able to attach photos but don’t see that option on this review. I’ll post later if I can figure it out lol. Hugs and happy wedding planning :)

We used them to cater our wedding. We had them do a bacon burger bar, but they completely forgot to give us bacon. It almost completely ruined the buffet and all the buffet signs that I hand made. Then when told Brandi, the manager in charge of our event. She said she'd give us refund of 50 cents a person and just said, "well it was just human error." I had to practically beg for any form of compensation and then she said shed comp a meal at their restaraunt for me and my Hub as if we just had a bad meal experience. She acted completely unprofessionally and didn't have a care in the world that she almost ruined the buffet. If the Faust knew what was good for them they wouldn't let Brandi manage anymore wedding accounts. Terrible experience.
Our Wedding here at the Faust was so more Amazing than I could ever imagine.
Brandi was awesome and all who worked our event was amazing. The chef Chri and crew . Made our special nite even more beautiful. Vance is awesome.
The Faust it the best place to have an event.
The Faust is PERFECT for a small wedding. Amy, the event coordinator, bent over backwards to help us plan the big day, and it paid off! Chef made us a delicious bbq lunch, and our guests loved the local brews. We had the ceremony and reception in the party room, and loved that all of our family and friends could stay with us at the hotel. Great venue!
Reese at the front desk was amazing! We did welcome bags, and they made sure everyone who was there for our wedding got one, even if they hadn't reserved by the cutoff date for our room blocks. They also provided a really great discount for our guests, and made sure everyone was able to take advantage of the deal. We reserved a block at a different local hotel, and no one stayed there because they couldn't match the prices (or convenience) of the Faust!
It was a really good stay and we got to stay up and continue the party after the wedding was over! Some of my guests thought it was haunted :P
This place is a beautiful venue for a semi-small wedding/reception (approx. under 200 guests). It has a vintage feel to it and the staff is great to work with. They do alot of weddings, so they really know what they are doing. We had several compliments on the place, and the food was excellent. It is nice because it is all inclusive - including food, cake, set-up, linens, and music.
