Holland Hotel Best of IgoUgo

Hotel

Loft #1 Photo - Holland Hotel, Alpine, Texas
Quote:
The lofts are modern and comfortable, with their own kitchens for you to fix your own meals and eat them outside in the beautiful courtyard garden. The furniture is fashionable and comfortable, and there always seem to be interesting, friendly people staying at the Lofts (and the nearby Holland Hotel).

Story/Tip

Quote:
The minimalist artist Donald Judd (with help from the Dia Foundation) went to Marfa, Texas, and purchased Fort Russell in the 1970s to house a permanent section of site-specific modern art. Other artists are featured there as well, including Dan Flavin, Claes Oldenberg, and others.
