Hidden cottages provide a quiet base during the Round Top Antique Show

Following the final days of the Round Top Fall Antiques Show, many shoppers are wondering where to stay overnight next time they visit to minimize driving, maximize time at the show, and get a whole new perspective on the semi-annual shopping event. Thankfully, there's plenty of time to plan ahead, and we know just the place to turn the visit into a mini vacation.

Anywhere from 10 to 15 years ago, the notion of finding a hotel, motel, cottage, or even a camper to rent in Round Top was, well, laughable. However, thanks to a steady increase in lodging investments, it’s no longer such a comical feat to pull off. Over a dozen boutique properties have opened over the past decade, each one as charming as ever, making sure that an overnight in Round Top is well within reach.

Because the spring and fall antiques shows span two weeks and individual venues open and close on different schedules, visitors can easily turn a shopping trip into a full getaway. Lodging options throughout Round Top make it easy to stay close to the action, whether visitors prefer boutique hotels, charming cottages, or a property with room to settle in for several days.
