The front desk staff was amazing. We had some extra special needs and they accommodated us immediately and went above and beyond our ask. Had a small maintenance issue and it was tended to very quickly and timely. Great stay, could not have asked for a better place to celebrate our 2nd anniversary. Thank you!

Many things seem to be “not working” or “not available”. The hotel is ok-ish, but the rooms definitely could do with modernizing. Everything is a bit tired.

Kids had a great time on the River Walk. Visited Ripley's Believe It or Not exhibit and the 4D movie. Also, the Gondola captain was funny and informative and the food it always awesome. Visited the Hard Rock Café and Mexican Manhattan Restaurants, Both were wonderful. Also, kudos to Alamo Music Store for accommodating my 15 year old grandson's musical passion. We may end up returning to purchase one of the upright pianos he 'tested' there.

Without question, the River Boat Tour is a MUST to anyone visiting SA! We were so impressed with our tour on Friday, that we did it again Saturday!!

wear walking shoes and enjoy walking around all the corridors to see the shops, flowers, trees, people and restaurants the whole length of it slowly. The river boat tour is always a great place to start you trip off with a quick look at the riverwalk and learn about it and parts of San Antonio.
