Anthony Hotels

Half way (22 miles) between El Paso and Las Cruces in New Mexico, the evocatively-named Best Western Oasis of the Sun is the main hotel in the little Texas border town of Anthony, and it has a fine location alongside I-10 (exit 0) with views east towards the Franklin Mountains. The immediate surroundings are mostly unused desert land, but there are a few restaurants close by, and the center of Anthony lies one mile west along Antonio St. Also one mile away is the popular Wet 'n' Wild Water World. There are 62 nice clean rooms at the hotel (equipped with microwave/refrigerator), plus amenities of free hot breakfast, hot tub, outdoor pool, fitness center and business center.
