Comfort is a quaint little hill country town perfect for a secluded, romantic weekend getaway - and lucky for you, Meyer B&B is there to complete the experience.

6. Noble Inns (San Antonio)
This mansion-style bed and breakfast actually has three separate properties to choose from - all historic landmarks from the 1800s that have been restored to pristine perfection.
