The COTTON PEARL MOTEL HOTEL BEBE JORDAN GEIBEL BEN SASSANI T ruth Barbeque baroness Abbie Byrom-Botello (her husband, Leonard Botello IV, is pit master and co-owner) debuted Hotel Bebe in time for the fall antiques show, with L.A. hat-designer Teressa Foglia and LoveShackFancy folks hosting a week-long series of events at the newly minted property. A ranch-style main house and four standalone bungalows are all freshly renovated and decorated by Byrom-Botello's design firm, Haven Studio Design, with a mix of local finds and pop art by Gino Vian. A pool and communal firepit are socializing ops; Hotel Bebe is located directly across Highway 237 from Marburger Farm Antique Show. Hotel Bebe, 2249 S. Texas Highway 237, Round Top, @HotelBeBeRoundTop. Candice Cowin A t The Cotton Pearl Motel you'll find anything but the stereotypical '60s motel. The latest entry in Round Top's ever- growing lodging arena, this charming country- style compound owned by Pete Bell is composed of a two-bedroom main house, The Cottontail, and two smaller cottages, The 3 Carat Suite and The Garden Suite. Don't miss the Rabbit Hole, a Victorian-inspired parlor and game room where champagne and honor bars beckon. Also beckoning: a private pool, pickleball court, gas grill, firepit, and on-site kitchen trailer for private chef dinners, all devised by creative director Zinat Ahmed.
