"great place close to the river walk"

Menger Hotel

8/10 Good

"You can not beat the location! Alamo and River---perfect! The room was OK but the bed bottom sheet was not put on the mattress and a pillow case was ribbed and the fire alarm was chirping! I called housekeeping and they came and photographed and corrected it! Lots of people working the valet parking, but texting them requesting your car do not seem to work as they asked on the ticket! Still I would stay there again!"

Hotel 1914 - Historic Alamo Riverwalk, an Ascend Collection Hotel

10/10 Excellent

La Quinta Inn & Suites by Wyndham San Antonio Riverwalk

8/10 Good

"The staff was amazing, great customer service, and ready to help. The room was comfortable and clean but there was a smell to the room and the sheets. The air conditioner was working but the room felt humid and that might have led to smell. Overall it was nothing that would keep me from staying there again. The walk to the Alamodome was easy and saved us money from not having to get an uber!"

"Friendly staff"

Hampton Inn & Suites by Hilton San Antonio Riverwalk
