Cavalry Court: A Vintage-Inspired Hotel Steeped in College Station History

Cavalry Court, a 141-room motor court hotel in College Station, Texas, offers a unique blend of vintage charm and modern luxury. Inspired by the area's rich history and Texas A&M tradition, Cavalry Court provides a distinctive hospitality experience that captures the essence of College Station and embraces a bit of Americana.

A Nod to Military History

The army may seem like an unlikely inspiration for a hotel, but it served as the jumping-off point for Cavalry Court's "military-inspired" design. The hotel's vintage military theme is a nod to Texas A&M University's origins as a military college in 1876 and its history of horse-mounted combat units. Designer Rottet Studio chose corrugated metal and vintage brick to form a Spartan palette, while details, such as pool cabanas resembling field tents, complete the kitschy theme. Appropriately, guest rooms and suites have been dubbed “barracks” and “officers’ quarters”.

Location and Accessibility

It’s only fitting that Cavalry Court is situated steps away from Texas A&M. Cavalry Court is near part of Houston-based developer Midway and Valencia Group’s 60-acre Century Square, a mixed-use development adjacent to the A&M campus. Cavalry Court is conveniently located in Century Square - a destination with shops, restaurants, entertainment venues, and a day spa. If you’re attending an Aggies football game or Ring Day, the hotel is within walking distance of Texas A&M. If you’re traveling to Bryan-College Station for work, the business center, in-room executive workstation, and Cavalry Court Business Travel Program have you covered.

Accommodations: Comfort and Style

Cavalry Court’s bright and airy guest quarters feature campaign-style furnishings, a 50-inch flat screen TV, a roomy sitting area, and a fully stocked retro looking refrigerator. At days end, you’ll sleep like a baby on the custom designed Valencia Hotel Collection mattress and soft Egyptian cotton bed linens. Both The Barracks (deluxe) and The Quarters (standard) offer unique outdoor views of the lavish courtyard, while The Barracks provides the added touch of patio rocking chairs.

Dining at The Canteen Bar & Grill

The Mess Hall houses the Canteen Bar & Grill, a casual space with communal tables and extraordinary fare. Whether it’s a quiet evening, birthday fête, or celebrating an Aggie victory, The Canteen at Cavalry Court serves up authentic Texan cuisine alongside hand-shaken cocktails. Stepping into the bar and grill, a bygone era has been recreated with its family style tables and décor. Bartenders serve hand-shaken cocktails while chefs create inspired signature dishes, including crackling chicken over green pea risotto and the chimichurri ribeye. The Canteen Bar & Grill is among College Station’s best Sunday brunch spots, too.

If you’re looking for a little exercise, play a game of cornhole or ping pong, pedal around town on a complimentary bicycle, or hit the 24-hour fitness center.
