The Faust Hotel in New Braunfels, Texas, hosts meetings, weddings and private celebrations for groups of up to 100 guests. A Ballroom, a speakeasy-style private room and a garden patio cover most formats, and the whole property can be taken over for larger plans.
Seminars and company events
The hotel markets its meeting offer as Work From Faust. The Ballroom can be set classroom, theater, U-shape or round tables for up to 100 people. Walter's Speakeasy converts to a boardroom for 18 to 20, which suits a leadership session or a working dinner. Advanced audio-visual equipment is provided through a partner, 2Rivers Technical Services, and the on-site hospitality team handles service so the agenda stays on track. Groups can also book overnight rooms in the hotel.
Weddings and receptions
The hotel describes a wedding sequence on site: vows on the Magnolia Patio, cocktails at the W&W Bar and Patio, and the reception in the Ballroom. A ceremony with reception is possible for up to 100 guests, as is a reception alone. Rehearsal dinners for up to 100 take place in the Ballroom. Catering is exclusive to the hotel's culinary team, tastings are arranged in advance, and a professional planner is required. Property buyouts are available.
