Add To My Trip
Rich in tradition and history, Bryan-College Station is, in every sense, right in the heart of Texas. Twin cities nestled in the lush Brazos Valley, the combo is conveniently centered in a triangle formed by Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston, and Austin-San Antonio. Residents and visitors enjoy city amenities mingled with small-town hominess, and everyone marvels over the magnificent George Bush Presidential Library and Museum; Texas A&M University, established as the state's first public institution of higher learning in 1876 and now the third-largest university in the nation; and Messina Hof Winery. Headliners perform at free open-air concerts at Wolf Pen Creek Amphitheater, surrounded by a three-acre lake.
Bryan-College Station has more than 500 economical, 1,500 moderate, 500 first-class, and 100 deluxe accommodations.
